This is the striking new XF, a true fusion of sports and luxury, the latest of Jaguar’s long heritage of beautiful, fast cars. Expressing the bold design language that emphasizes a muscular stance, distinctive grille, sweeping roofline and powerful shoulders, the XF gives the promise of performance even when standing still. Driving as dynamically as it looks—agile and responsive handling balanced with a refined ride give the XF exceptional smoothness and control. Outstanding aerodynamics play their part, resulting in minimal drag and low wind noise. The contemporary cabin accommodates five adults comfortably. The car’s lines—both athletic and assertive—resemble a driver-focused coupe, and its blend of power, torsional stiffness and refinement promise memorable road performance. This is sporting luxury.
The power to perform. XF’s engine is an all-aluminum 4.2-liter, 32-valve AJ-V8 with four variably-phased overhead cams and ribbed block and cylinder heads for stiffness and reduced engine noise. A naturally aspirated version develops 300 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque, delivering effortless performance. In the supercharged model a rotor-type blower is added, increasing output to 420hp and 413lb-ft of torque, giving instant linear response. The car’s transmission is a nimble 6-speed Sequential Shift automatic. Shift-by-wire gear changes are signaled via JaguarDrive Selector or fast steering-wheel-mounted paddles. This car will accelerate from 0 to 60 in 5.1 seconds with impeccable character.
