Why it matters

Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory package productioninitial production limited to 30 cars for the North American market (US/Canada only; the UK allocation of 10 is separate) | 302 | Manufacturer reported | Independently researched |
| Factory package production30 for US/Canada plus 10 for the UK (total is a sum of two stated limits) | 401 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
Jaguar initially offered the XKR-S GT only in North America, with sales capped at 30 units. In July 2013 it announced 10 cars for UK customers at £135,000, with first deliveries planned for October 2013, after the car lapped the Nordschleife in 7 minutes 40 seconds. It used a 550PS, 680Nm supercharged 5.0-litre V8 with a six-speed transmission and an active electronic differential.
