Pictured is the XE with pop singer Emeli Sandé who is going to write a song to go with the 3 Series rival’s promoting in London on September 8.

Jaguar has teased profile shots and details on its bodywork and ride qualities but this latest image provides the biggest clue to the XE’s looks.
The XE will be the rival of the Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series when it goes on sale in 2015. It will also see Jaguar re-enter the premium mid-size saloon segment since the X-Type was dropped in 2009.
Company car drivers will have a two litre diesel option, offering 75+mpg and CO2 emissions of 99g/km.
The XE will as well get the same 335hp V6 supercharged three-litre petrol currently available in the entry-level F-Type, which can do a 0-60mph sprint in five seconds.
An XER-S could also surface in 2016 which uses a 542bhp five-litre V8 engine, able of exceeding 186mph.
Prices of the Jaguar XE are expected to start from £30k.
