Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has revealed its new flagship engine from the 'Ingenium' family, in the form of a twin-charged (that's supercharged and turbocharged) six-cylinder petrol engine. Set to debut locally in 2020, the new Ingenium inline six will be available in both 265kW and 294kW tunes, with torque ranging from 495Nm to 550Nm.

Jaguar has recalled its XE and XF sedans, F-Pace and E-Pace crossovers and F-Type coupe, over concerns the fuel rails on 2.0-litre Ingenium four-cylinder engines weren't manufactured correctly. According to the company, the issue could increase the risk of fuel vapour or liquid leaks in the engine bay. If the problem occurs, there's a risk fuel could come into contact with hot engine components – creating a fire risk.

Update - Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) Australia has confirmed pricing and specifications for all new Ingenium petrol models will be announced on August 1. The upcoming 2018 Range Rover Velar has become the latest recipient of parent company Jaguar Land Rover's (JLR) most powerful version of its 2.0-litre 'Ingenium' petrol engine. With the wider Velar range heading Down Under later this year, the company expects the high-output petrol models to go on sale around December 2017.
