The 1960s Jaguar XK-E, also known as the E-Type, is a legendary British sports car that combined stunning looks with cutting-edge engineering. First introduced in 1961, the XK-E was a true icon of the 1960s, lauded for its sleek, aerodynamic design and high-performance capabilities. Powered by a 3.8-liter inline-six engine (later upgraded to 4.2 liters), it delivered an exhilarating 265 horsepower, allowing the E-Type to reach speeds of over 150 mph, making it one of the fastest cars of its time. Its long hood, sculpted lines, and low profile were ahead of their time, earning it a place in the Museum of Modern Art. The XK-E's refined handling, disc brakes, and independent suspension made it a joy to drive. Widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cars ever built, the Jaguar XK-E remains a symbol of 1960s automotive elegance and performance.
