Fuel Economy Overview

The 2004 Jaguar X-Type achieves an EPA-estimated 18 MPG in combined city and highway driving, with 16 MPG in the city and 23 MPG on the highway. Powered by a 3L 6-cylinder engine paired with a automatic 5-spd, this compact cars features 4-Wheel or All-Wheel Drive drive.

In terms of environmental impact, the 2004 X-Type produces approximately 494 grams of CO2 per mile. This figure is measured under standardized EPA test conditions and represents tailpipe emissions only. For context, the average new vehicle sold in the United States produces approximately 400 grams of CO2 per mile, meaning this X-Type has higher-than-average emissions in this regard.

The estimated annual fuel cost for this vehicle is $3,850, based on 15,000 miles of driving per year and current national average fuel prices. Compared to the average new vehicle, you would save $8,500 over a 5-year period. This calculation accounts for differences in fuel consumption efficiency and provides a practical measure of long-term ownership costs attributable to fuel economy.

Aerodynamic Speed Penalty

EPA highway tests average roughly 48 mph. Driving at 75 mph increases aerodynamic drag exponentially. Expect your real-world highway fuel economy to drop by roughly 15-20% at interstate speeds.

Component: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP

ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, WHEN REPLACE THE FUEL FILLER CAP TO THE VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK FILLER NECK, IT IS POSSIBLE TO OVER-TIGHTEN THE CAP INDUCING A POOR SEAL. IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE ROLL-OVER, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR FUEL TO LEAK PAST THE FUEL FILLER CAP.

Consequence & Remedy

Consequence: FUEL LEAKAGE, IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE, COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE FUEL CAP SEALS AND FIT BETTER QUALITY SEALS ONTO THE VEHICLE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 1, 2004. CUSTOMERS MAY ALSO CONTACT JAGUAR AT 1-800-452-4827.
