Today Jaguar announced that HD radio will become a standard feature in their existing XKR and XFR models, and in their upcoming flagship model, the XJ. HD radio will remain an option in the XK and XF models.
While it might be easy to dismiss this as news that is only relevant for the filthy rich, remember that it’s only been five years since BMW became the first auto maker to provide an in-car iPod dock connector as a dealer option, and now they can be found in a number of lower-priced vehicles. If nothing else, Jaguar’s adoption of HD radio as standard in their flagship models is a sign that, over the next few years, we might start seeing HD radio trickling down into vehicles that the working class can actually afford.
