The first S-Types ("X200" 1999–2002) are distinguished by a U-shaped centre console and optional touch-screennavigation systemin the 2003 and later models. The traditional leaping jaguar hood ornament was optional even though it is approved by the US and EU standards and breaks away in the case of an accident. Subsequent models ("X202", X204", X206"; the last digit denoting the model year) have the Jaguar logo incorporated within the radiator grille and a more traditional 'looped' styling for the centre console. In Australia, he "leaper" bonnet ornament did not become available until 2004.

The superchargedS-Type R(Jaguar STR for short) joined the lineup in 2002, nd the hope was that it would compete with BMW's M5 and the Mercedes E55 AMG. TheRwas powered by the newly revised 4.2-Litre V8with an Eaton M112 supercharger, roducing 400hp (300kW; 410PS) and could accelerate from 0 to 60mph (97km/h) in 5.3seconds (0 to 100km/h (62mph) in 5.6 s). It included 18-inch (457-millimeter) alloy wheels, ire-mesh grille, nd monochromatic paint. TheRalso has a rear apron, ide-skirts, nd front apron with built-in fog-lamps, rear spoiler, brace located near the rear subframe, ndRbadging on the boot lid and both front fenders (wings).

Later models of theS-Type Rfeatured a revised pulley system for the Eaton M112 supercharger, llowing it to produce an extra 20hp (15kW; 20PS).

Also added on the 2003 model was an electronic parking-brake paddle-switch that replaced the conventional manually operated lever for the rear brakes. For the 2003 model year, he Jaguar S-type was given a six-speed, utomatic ZF 6HP26 transmissionas well as a revised 3.0-litre V6 engine with 235hp (175kW) (US spec) versus 210hp (160kW) for the 1999 to 2002 models. The 2003 model featured a revised dash, entre console, nd a grille with the Jaguar badge to give the vehicle a more Jaguar-like appearance, nd a flip-open key was devised for the ignition.

A minor facelift on the 2005 model year featured redesigned front and rear aprons, slightly modified grille, emodeled rear light clusters, n aluminium bonnet, nd a new 2.7-litre V6 diesel engine with 207hp (154kW). The windscreen washer jets were incorporated into the windscreen wiper arms. There were no changes made to the cabin interior. 2006 to 2008 models featured no fog lights.
