Marketeering... done well...

Elba's role at the company will be “celebrity tester,” and his first task will be a 750-mile drive from London to Berlin in winter conditions. He will be taking a Jaguar XE on the trip, and the whole thing will be filmed (obviously), with Elba giving commentary on the car and how it handles the conditions. Obviously watching the entire trip would be tedious, but Jaguar will be giving us at least one highlight reel once the journey has been completed. Elba seems like a good choice for this, and we're looking forward to seeing the completed film.

It is a good trailer. Something that I will watch once it comes out. i wonder how long the actual video will be.

Here it is embedded.

I love that we get to hear how it sounds :D
i wonder which engine is in the model he is driving.

I guess a regular R-sport. It features the same sideskirts as the R-sport and XE-S but lacks the special S badge in the grille... so it should be the R-sport (or a S in disguise)

Now that was epic , can always depend on the british to put on an engaging promo :D
Thanx Fideba...

It's a 180ps (20d on the back) R-Sport..... love the sound!!!!!
Great video so far. I wish Jaguar would give me a car to drive to Berlin in. I think its a pretty effective campaign since I am excited to see the next installment. Jaguar has done a great job with their marketing and advertising recently. Kudos to them for that.
rear end shot of it going sideways was just awesome, it helps that the tail lights light up the way they do, that was one of the vital parts of the clip
