JLR (Tata) is not going to build a new XK, regardless of what Ian C. says.
If a manufacturer cannot move at least 1,000 units annually of any model, the MSRP must be over $250K to justify the R&D, & factory tooling expenses for that model. The current market will never support/buy an new XKR in that price range.
Look instead for a stretched F-Type to be marketed as a 2+2. Or look even further ahead to whatever will (eventually) replace the F-Type, to have a more flexible line-up including a two-seater & a four-seater.

Sat in a Velar and a F-Pace. The only thing I didn't like about the Velar was the low sitting position unbefitting of a Range Rover. Felt no difference than sitting in a sedan. F-Pace, on the other hand, felt like a proper SUV even with its dated interior.

You may want to wait, if you can, for the Defender release, its the jewel of the crown and highly anticipated refresh 30 years overdue. They will hit it out of the park. And those cars never depreciate. But dont expect luxury.

Defender would be fun, but we just don't do that kind of driving. When we had the Range Rover, never used any of the off road options once. So sad, but true.

I don't know how receptive she'll be to a Defender. We have until next June and I'd like the to stick with a JLR product if possible. Volvo and Alfa Stelvio are on the list. Highly likely to lease again, so need to see who has the deals.

Huge craze these days of having such vehicles, G wagon is in the same category- rugged understated luxury if you will. Which is why they are in such high demand. Look around here you will see what the underlying objective is for these cars. https://ecdautodesign.com/
