Need convincing that full-size luxury sedans don’t need a V-8 for a fun driving experience? Cars.com reviewer Kelsey Mays says you need look no further than the 2013 Jaguar XJ. The XJ’s supercharged 3.0-liter V-6 offers plenty of acceleration and torque to power its remarkably light frame around the curves of a winding road. Simulated gauges and touch-screen responsiveness come up a little short, and Jaguar has earned a rep for being reliably unreliable — but you might be having too much fun to care. Watch the video above.
