The SS Jaguar 3½-litre was the largest-engined car of the SS Jaguar saloon and drophead coupe range, added in 1938 and built until 1940. It shared its chassis and body design with the 2½-litre, although a wider radiator was needed to fit the bigger six-cylinder engine. The same year, saloon and drophead production moved from coachbuilt, wood-framed construction to all steel. The 3½-litre engine was also used in the separate open two-seater SS Jaguar 100, of which 116 were made with that engine. After the war, when SS Cars had become Jaguar Cars, the saloon returned as the plain Jaguar 3½-litre and was built from 1946 to 1948.
