New Jaguar XF unveiled in London

The all new XF brings an unrivalled blend of refinement, fuel economy, dynamics and design to the business car segment. The new XF is 80kg lighter than its closest competitor, resulting in best-in-class efficiency (over 29.7km/L) and CO₂ emissions (104g/km). 

Featuring 75 percent aluminium, the architecture enables weight savings of up to 190kg over the outgoing model and an increase in torsional stiffness of up to 28 percent. The light, stiff bodystructure is also fundamental to the all new XF's superb vehicle dynamics.

The architecture also delivers dramatic improvements in packaging and the proportions so essential to Jaguar design. Although it is 7mm shorter and 3mm lower than the outgoing model, the all new XF's 2,960mm wheelbase is 51mm longer, enabling class-leading rear seat space with more legroom, kneeroom and headroom.

The efficiency gains inherent in the lightweight aluminium construction are complemented by the all new XF's refined, powerful engine range. The 2.0-litre Ingenium diesel engines are available in 160bhp/380Nm and 177bhp/430Nm ratings and are offered with specially optimised six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions.

The 3.0-litre V6 twin-turbo diesel benefits from a host of advanced technologies which boost efficiency and refinement further, and raise output to 295bhp and a remarkable 700Nm of torque. Also available is the renowned 3.0-litre V6 supercharged petrol engine with 374bhp/450Nm torque.

Incorporating all of the learning from the F-TYPE and XE, the meticulously-tuned Electric Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) maintains the XF's benchmark steering feel and response - and contributes to the car's outstanding fuel economy.

As with the XE, rear-wheel drive ability is enhanced too. All-Surface Progress Control, developed for low-speed driving in adverse conditions, automatically manages the brakes and the throttle to deliver the best possible traction, enabling the car to pull away smoothly and without drama: the driver only has to steer.

Infotainment and connectivity is the most advanced Jaguar has ever offered. The all new InControl Touch Pro system features a 10.2-inch touchscreen and Dual View technology which simultaneously allows the driver to see information such as navigation, while the front seat passenger watches TV or a DVD. Complementing InControl Touch Pro is a reconfigurable 12.3-inch TFT instrument cluster. Jaguar Land Rover pioneered this technology with the XJ and Range Rover and is now bringing it to the business car segment.
