Buzz Garage: Jaguar XF
Jaguar revealed the replacement for the S-Type at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show with the beautiful mid-size sports sedan called the Jaguar XF. Based on the Jaguar C-XF, the production version retains most of the sleek design from the concept besides minor changes to the front end. The new Jaguar XF gives the British auto maker a strong chance to compete with German rivals such as the BMW 5-Series and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
In the UK, the Jaguar XF is available in four different variants including 2.7L V6 diesel, a 3.0L V6 producing 240 horsepower, a 4.2L naturally aspirated V8 producing 300 horsepower and a 4.2L Supercharged V8 producing 420 horsepower. In the U.S. the Jaguar XF will only come in a 4.2 liter V8 engine and a 4.2 liter Supercharged V8. The base 4.2 liter V8 Jaguar XF will go for $49,975 while the Supercharged variant is priced at $62,975.
At the 2009 Detroit Auto Show, Jaguar unveiled the Jaguar XFR. Power for the XFR comes from a 5.4L AJ-V8 GEN III V8 making 510-hp and 461 lb-ft of torque. Pricing starts at $80,000.
