It's the XE for me. I was all set on a BMW 335i, but I just drove an XF today (because they didn't have an XE in stock) and I really liked it a lot more than BMW! It did indeed ride smoother, yet sharper and more precise. I did not feel like the cabin was cheaply made at all. Unless there's a significant difference between the XF and XE (there isn't in pictures), I can't understand their complaints with the interior. I actually liked it significantly better than the BMW's. The BMW interior just doesn't seem anything special to me. I've never cared for Merc anything because their interiors are way to busy and....fiddly. For me, it's hands-down Jaguar.

+Kcducttaper1 there is an awful lot of difference in build quality between xf and xe, i'd suggest you to rent both xe and 3 series and decide for yourself. On Base model, 3 series would give you nothing, only if you add money and get some options in interior then you can say boy its hot car, otherwise fairly your choice.

Have you actually been in both an XE and an XF?!? If it weren't for the difference in size you wouldn't be able to tell the difference - absolutely no different in build quality.

Agreed, the Merc's cabin is gorgeous, but I'd take the Jag interior over the BMW all day long. The 3 series may feel solid inside, but it's always looked so bare and uninspiring to me. After test driving them both, the Jag's large, integrated touch screen and f-type accents from steering wheel to dials looked so much classier and luxurious.
@mpc007
@mpc007 8 лет назад
+Craig Rees Nice thing about a BMW is always the driving position. Seat adjustments, distance to the wheel, the instruments, it all 'feels right'. The car melts around you as a driver, and lets you use it to its full potential. Could you confirm the Jag has the same feeling? Eager to try it out...
@craigrees7939

Very good and comprehensive review. Good job, Auto Trader crew. One thing though; I've read the 3-series Efficient Dynamics models (like the one tested here) don't ride or handle quite as well as the standard 3-series models , mainly due to their reduced rolling resistance tyres which help economy. So, I wonder how a standard 3-series (with normal tyres) would've fared ride/handling wise.

3 months ago, after watching a stock pile of reviews, I went out and picked a BMW 320d M sport. What I can say after 3 month daily ride is this car is simply perfect. I never get tired or bored behind the wheel and its gearbox is a feat of engineering as you barely notice a gear shift. Also, the engine gives enough power to satisfy me on British roads with strict speed limit rules. Nice car Beem!

The Jaguar is just something special for me. The 3 series and the C class is just littered around every corner, and just makes them loose that specialty...Yes they may have a point on the general quality, the BMW is solid inside, but as others said ,it just looks the same, in my opinion boring whilst lacking that touch of elegance. The Jaguar's interior is just clean and yet still so stylish, for me I am not even bothered about the piano black plastic, it isn't as bad as people make it out to be. I've driven the 20d 180 PS RWD model with the 8 speed auto, and I didn't find any faults with it. Also managed to get 66 mpg on the cruise, one off tests like these will not provide proper results...I'd take the Jag, just for the name and the prestige it gets you! Also let us not forget that the Jag is by far the best looking of the three.

My insurance gave me a 3 series M Sport 2ltr petrol, brand new at the time 2018 model. Absolutely hated it from the start. Harsh ride, no refinement and felt common as every other car on the road was a BMW and all looked the same.

+TheChamp 101 I am very well sure that other manufacturers own such devices as well and only with a child logic you can believe that the VW Group is so backwards on technology (after the new Q7) compared to the rivals that it has to resort to such practices... The margin between the paper values and reality has become so high with the Euro 6 norm that I believe it is becoming technically impossible for an ordinary diesel that's affordable to fulfill them. Only way forwards if we keep this eco-dictate is the hybrid/electric powertrain, which is still expensive and not ready.

Not sure I agree when you guys @Auto Trader say you "matched" them spec for spec. The - only - complaint is the Mercedes is the slowest here, but it's half a liter capacity and 30-odd horse powers down. The 220 would negate most of your complaints (all four would have roughly the same cubic capacity and have auto's) and the Mercedes would be the fastest. For eco-diesels, I believe handling is a bit overweighted.

+Bill Dexhart The reason we picked the Mercedes 200 is because it’s the cleanest version of the C-Class - and we choose the most efficient diesel version of all three cars in the test. That engine is also the quietest in the Mercedes range, which helps improve refinement. We’ve driven the C220 before, and with that engine the C-Class is considerably more expensive that the BMW. We had to balance these factors when choosing which engine to go for, but as we do mention in the video, the performance was not really a factor in its coming third - whereas the handling was.

Great test. Nice to see some jerno that are not hood winked by the new toys. BMW wins & always will in my eyes as the others are just copies. As a work at Jag I see how it's built & although it's very good it's no where near as good as the Bimmer.

The merc is the most desirable to me of these three. I think the new a4 will be better than all three judging by early reviews, but as soon as there's a group review again it'll be the three seriezzzzzz that wins as usual.

I sat at the rear of the 3 series, and the Xe and its identical head & legroom (I am 5ft11 inches), so the reporter is talking rubbish saying the 3 series has more room.
@soundseeker63
@soundseeker63 8 лет назад
So they claim early 70s mpg but actually deliver high 40s.... interesting. The same must apply to the emissions? Be interested how the long term reliability of these cars pan out as BMW have been known for electrical issues, the Merc has a Renault engine (not a make known for durability!) and the Jag had an engine fault during the test.... Eeek...none will be cheap to fix either!

Please drive the 320d, sport or m sport, with bigger wheels, m sport adaptive suspension, and NO servotronic and NO variable sport steering before concluding that the Jag XE is a better driver's car than the BMW
@AutoTraderTV
@AutoTraderTV 8 лет назад
+Adrian Chua Q.Y. The car we drove was on adaptive suspension, which we mention in the video. We've also driven the car on M Sport wheels and tyres, and there is definitely more grip, but that does also push the emissions well over the Jaguar's and the Audi's. Agree with you about the Servotronic, but all the cars on the launch were fitted with it, unfortunately.
@adrianchuaq.y.4968
@adrianchuaq.y.4968 8 лет назад
Thanks for replying man. But the Servotronic, puny wheels and fat sidewalls really do make a monumental difference.

@peterfeltham5612 8 лет назад
A cross section of all reviews on the net and in the press come to the same conclusion.That the Jag is clearly the best car in this sector but let down by inferior quality interior.So the choice would appear to be,if you want the best driving machine go for the Jag,if you want the nice interior go for the Merc,if you want a car that is a compromise between the two go for the BMW.

The Jaguar is the most elegant although hesitant with 8 speed auto and limited boot space. The 3 series is as common as a Ford Escort back in the day. I wouldn’t go for the Merc as it has a Renault 1.6 engine! So Jaguar wins!

This test wasn`t really fair for Mercedes because you used a 200 d model with 1.6 liter engine. I really think that the "engine rival" for BMW 320d is the 220 model with a 2.15 liter engine.

Me personally, i am a MLB guy on my last two purchases. But only the ML's, and the CLK coupe for speed, i just test driven a 2015 bmw 320i. And I'm never going back, Jags. to me are when i retire. I'm to young to be interested. and i never test driven one. this bmw i got, the grill make the car look like a mean machine, top of the line for a cheap price. It has a four door but drive like a coupe, i could not tell this car is a 4 cylinder. after just driving a clk coupe v6. today was the first day it rained sense i got the bmw, and i put it to the test. the handling was amazing, listen the bmw is really the ultimate driving experience. hands down.
