DRIVING PERFORMANCE
The driving dynamics of Jaguar cars are legendary – XF raises this benchmark even higher.
COMFORT AND DYNAMISM
With its superior ride comfort and outstanding sport handling, XF delivers a breadth of exhilarating driving experiences.
SIGNATURE FEATURES
-
LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINIUM ARCHITECTURE
The foundation of XF’s impeccable ride, handling, and dynamics is Jaguar’s Lightweight Aluminium Architecture. It facilitates a near perfect 50:50 balance, supporting an agile and precise drive. The weight saved by our extensive use of aluminium improves fuel efficiency, reducing CO2 emissions to as low as 114g/km and makes XF one of the lightest cars in its class.

RIDE & HANDLING
XF responds with agility and performs with dynamism while always maintaining ride comfort. This is thanks, in part, to XF's light, yet exceptionally strong and stiff, Lightweight Aluminium Architecture. It’s the ideal platform for the sophisticated front double wishbone and rear Integral Link suspension systems and gives XF the spirit of a sports car.

INSPIRED SUSPENSION
Strong and light aluminium components make up XF’s sophisticated front and rear suspension systems. At the front, a double wishbone suspension structure, similar to F‑TYPE’s, ensures class-leading handling. An Integral Link suspension system at the rear provides stiffness to support handling, improve ride quality even further and extend XF’s breadth of dynamic capability.
ENGINES
Ingenium is Jaguar Land Rover's new breed of engine designed for effortless performance, refinement and efficiency. With advanced technology and all-aluminium construction Ingenium delivers impressively low fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
PETROL
XF's 2.0 litre 4 cylinder Turbocharged Ingenium Petrol engines deliver outstanding usable power and torque. With their lightweight design and widespread use of low-friction roller bearings, they are built for smooth, highly efficient performance.
NEW DIESEL
Ingenium technology underpins three of the diesel engines in the XF range. These low friction, all-aluminium engines have stiff cylinder blocks and twin balancer shafts to ensure inherently low levels of vibration, for smooth day–to–day performance. All engines are equipped with Stop/Start technology1 and smart regenerative charging – harvesting kinetic energy from braking to charge the battery – for maximum economy, especially during urban driving.
F-TYPE INSPIRED ENGINES
All XF's petrol engines offer power and responsiveness, while improving efficiency. Shared with F TYPE, the 3.0 litre V6 Supercharged Petrol engine offers power of 280kW and torque of 450Nm. This all-aluminium engine delivers instant access to high levels of performance and torque at all engine speeds, as well as a unique soundtrack.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Delivering rapid shifting for effortless acceleration, XF's 8-speed Automatic Transmission is highly responsive, smooth and efficient. Featuring a contemporary Satin Black rotary selector – the transmission offers even quicker shifts and sportier kick-down in Dynamic Mode, and earlier up-shifts in Eco Mode. You can also opt to manually control gearshifts, via steering wheel paddles, at the touch of a finger.
DRIVING DYNAMICS
-
ALL SURFACE PROGRESS CONTROL
Unique to this class of car, Jaguar’s All Surface Progress Control (ASPC)5 gives you added confidence in slippery conditions – whether starting from a snowy driveway, driving on an icy incline, or even towing on wet grass. ASPC is a low-speed cruise control that helps XF overcome low traction situations, whatever the weather, allowing you to concentrate on steering.
-
CONFIGURABLE DYNAMICS
Inspired by the F-TYPE sports car, the optional Configurable Dynamics1 system allows you to set up XF's dynamics for throttle mapping, gearbox shift points and steering to suit your performance driving needs. It’s activated when Dynamic Mode is selected in JaguarDrive Control. Dynamic Mode enlivens XF's sporting character, sharpening throttle response, increasing steering weighting and performing gearshifts more quickly and at higher engine speeds. When optional Adaptive Dynamics is fitted, you can make your setting even more personal by configuring the damper settings.
-
ADAPTIVE DYNAMICS
Whether you're accelerating on the motorway, cornering on country roads or navigating around town, Adaptive Dynamics1 modifies XF's response to match the conditions and your driving style. The system constantly adjusts the dampers to provide the optimum balance between poise and comfort at all times.
ELECTRIC POWER ASSISTED STEERING
XF's Electric Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) offers outstanding feedback, control and immediate power assistance. Allowing sophisticated computer management to adapt the levels of steering support, EPAS finely calibrates the amount of power assistance for every bend and manoeuvre. EPAS also works in conjunction with the car’s other assistance features, including Park Assist2, to offer heightened safety and increase driver convenience.

JAGUARDRIVE CONTROL
JaguarDrive Control allows you to select Standard, Eco, Dynamic or Rain Ice Snow Mode, each subtly changing the steering, throttle response and gearbox shift points. Eco Mode encourages fuel-efficient driving while Dynamic Mode increases throttle sensitivity, holds gears for longer and increases steering weighting. By selecting Rain Ice Snow Mode, the system automatically dampens acceleration and applies more gradual traction for slippery conditions.
Jaguar's contemporary award-winning design, advanced driving dynamics and state-of-the-art in-car infotainment set XF apart from the competition. Use our configurator to create your perfect XF.
