Default NGI/NLI
Just trying to ascertain which system I have. Car built January 2017, 380W Meridian, SD card for maps and can pinch the display. Is there a difference between NGI and NLI ? Thanks.

2017MY 380W Meridian in an F-Type is NLI

The hardware (touchscreen, head unit, amplifier, etc) is totally different between NLI and NGI

There was chat on another site about CarPlay which is supposedly coming to Jaguar and with it waze.
Quote from a dealer was that it could be retrofitted to NLI systems. I’m as sceptical as anyone about Jaguar retrofitting anything but mildly hopeful that it could happen.

The EOS (Electronic Operating Systems) were updated in 2016MY where the choice of sound system also determined which infotainment and navigation system was fitted. The acronym NLI is widely used for this generation but even the Jaguar website fails to explain the meaning. The options were:
  1. 180W/380W - InControl Touch (NLI - SD Card)
  2. 770W - InControl Touch Plus (NLI 2.1 - HDD)
In computing NLI is a Natural Language Interface but JLR may have dreamed up an entirely different meaning.

NGI is not so abstruse. Jaguar website explains it stands for JLR's Next-Generation Interface, now called InControl Touch Infotainment System. Perhaps this ugly phrase will morph into the acronym ICTIS which the illiterati will probably believe to be the Greek god of communication.
