The Jaguar XF fuses sports car styling and performance with the refinement, features and space of a luxury saloon. XF embodies the Jaguar philosophy of creating beautiful, fast cars and defines a new driving experience: Sporting Luxury.

Performance

Driving Dynamics

Jaguar knows that the heart of a great car is a great engine; the XF offers four, from one of the most refined diesels in its class – the 2.7 litre V6 turbodiesel to a supercharged 4.2-litre petrol V8 with 306kW, through a 3.0-litre V6 and 4.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol V8 that give refinement, flexibility and outstanding performance.

The XF´s six-speed automatic transmission is highly acclaimed. A transmission with superb characteristics evolved from Jaguar´s XK and XKR sports cars. Its exceptionally rapid fully adaptive shift system responds to both road conditions and the way the car is driven, to give the smoothest gear shifts and optimum performance, all the time.

Refinement

If sporting is one defining word for the XF, refined is another. A stiff structure, smooth powertrains, careful attention to acoustic management are all essential ingredients for outstanding quietness and comfort. Exceptional aerodynamics play their part, too, with low drag and low wind noise going hand in hand. At 50km/h on 18" wheels, the XF´s interior noise level is a barely audible 65.6dB. And like the XK, the XF´s V8 exhaust systems are tuned for an overtly sporty sound quality, just as the XF´s looks promise.

Aerodynamics

The XF has the best aerodynamic performance, in terms of drag, of any Jaguar production car ever. Its high tail, its coupe-like roofline and subtle raised boot lid lip all contribute to impressive aerodynamics. The XF´s drag coefficient is just 0.29 and the front-to-rear lift balance is precisely zero. This results in less wind noise, improved fuel consumption, strong high speed stability and, of course ideal handling balance.

Features

Intuitive Technology

Jaguar´s intelligent use of technology plus the XF´s driver-friendly 7" Touch-screen control work perfectly together - to deliver ease of use, new levels of comfort, and neat, uncluttered space.

Many features remain hidden until they are actually needed – so the XF´s automatic climate control system includes rotating vents that roll quietly and smoothly out of sight when not in use. With the lightest of touches JaguarSense™ activates the front interior lights and glovebox release. And with the option of JaguarVoice™, other features can be accessed simply by asking.

The XF´s keyless entry system (standard on 4.2V8 and SV8 models) is a thoughtful feature that combines practicality with ease of use.

The XF's Own Unique 'Handshake'

Get into the XF and the start button pulses red, like a heartbeat. Press this button and the cast alloy JaguarDrive Selector™ rises into the palm of your hand. Simultaneously, the rotating vents turn from their flush, ´parked´ position to their functional open position, and the navigation system initialises to its home page. The XF is ready to be enjoyed.

JaguarDrive Selector

The XF´s JaguarDrive Selector™ throws off convention to set a new standard for automatic transmission control. Its rotary action is light, positive, intuitive. Transmission positions are selected simply by turning the JaguarDrive Selector™ with the fingertips, or to go from D to S, by using a simple push and turn.

Pedestrian Contact Sensing

Jaguar´s second-generation Pedestrian Contact Sensing™ System is part of the XF´s safety armoury. The XF´s system builds on the acclaimed technology first introduced in the XK.

Jaguar XF 2.7d The XF pushes both rational and emotional buttons.
It mixes contemporary looks with a thoughtful and unique interior that immediately conveys a sense of occasion. On the road, the XF is a polished performer, with an excellent balance between comfort and cornering prowess. The V6 turbo diesel was a disappointment, with a noticeable lag off the mark before the turbo spools up, but once under way, it was quiet and refined.

Style

Exterior Design

The first sporting saloon to deliver Jaguar´s stunning new design language. The profile is unique – athletic and assertive, the dramatic lines of a coupé envelop a spacious cabin with four doors and seating for five adults.

And the visual excitement is underpinned by the acknowledged strengths of Jaguar engineering and the latent power of XF´s dynamic character.

So its looks will engage you emotionally, and its driver-focused flavour will do the rest.

Jewel-like Details

The strong grille creates a distinctive signature, emphasising a broad, solid stance. The low nose, rising waist, sweeping roof line and powerful shoulders combine to imbue visual dynamism. And the detailing is exquisite and subtle, from the woven mesh of the grille to the dramatically sculpted light clusters, from the side power vents to the large alloy wheels.

Interior Ambience

As well as space, the new XF´s interior ambience is enriched by crafted, luxurious materials, sophisticated instruments and calm interior mood lighting. Engineering excellence and attention to detail mean the XF´s interior matches the best-in-class for refinement, while Jaguar´s intelligent use of technology and driver-friendly Touch-screen controls add new layers of comfort and ease of use.

A Contemporary Space

The XF epitomises Jaguar´s philosophy that good design does not have to be complicated. Compact design creates room for more creature comforts than ever before.

Halo illumination around the switch panels and Jaguar Drive Selector™ console, the start-stop button and Electric Parking Brake gives a soft glow that indicates their positions without distracting the driver. Soft, phosphor blue illumination is also used on the instrument dials, highlighting the sporting feel of the aluminium-coloured dials.
