The initiate of the new 2.0-litre turbo-petrol Jaguar XF symbolize the British throwing their union-jack-woven gauntlet (that’s glove if you don’t hail from the 15th century) down at the Germans and Japanese. For too long the full-size XF sedan has been likewise priced to the 5 Series, E-Class, A6, and GS organization, yet has obtainable mostly lesser engines mainly the base diesel and petrol V6.
Now, the entry-level XF is priced from $68,900, $10K fewer than the old turbo diesel appetizer (which now begins at $69,900…). And it’s motorized by a really slightly outstanding 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine, public with the Land Rover Evoque and Freelander, and Ford Mondeo and Falcon, although in a different state of tune.
There is, however, one major benefit with the Jaguar version – its chum to an eight-speed ZF-sourced transmission versus six-speed boxes for all other beneficiary. With 177kW and 340Nm, the entrance XF is also now more influential than the (132kW320Nm) Audi A6 2.0 TFSI, (135kW270Nm) BMW 520i, (135kW/270Nm) Mercedes-Benz E200 and (154kW/252Nm) Lexus GS250. That entire replica also cost $9-10K more than the newly inexpensive upper-crust.
Whether you’re glide on the open road or take pleasure in some back road S-bends, the four-cylinder Jaguar XF offers an imposing level of punch and unforced torque liberation. With BMW channel their aspirated inline sixes, there are few six cylinder cars that are this downy and flexible.
