Jaguar Refreshes the XF Range, to Arrive in India by mid-2015

Jaguar has spruced up its XF range of sports saloon that is expected to hit Indian shores in the second half of 2015. A new variant has also been added in the form of XF-R Sports Black. The new range features a host of changes including 20-inch Kalimnos alloy wheels, a standard 770 W Meridian sound system along with a black pack.

All models in the XF range now feature parking sensors and reverse camera as standard. Now all models get heated seats and windscreen plus front parking sensors and a rear camera. While top end models will come with updated alloy wheels and Jaguar’s Blind Sport Monitor as standard. . In the international markets, the new range starts with a Luxury trim followed by the R-Sport, new R-Sport Black, Portfolio, Diesel S Portfolio, XFR and XFR-S.

Meanwhile, the company says that in the UK, prices have been marginally increased though the cars now are decked with features that notably enhance their cost quotient. For the Indian market, specifications and prices have not been announced though will be revealed at the time of launch.

The XF combines style, luxury, comfort and the kind of sporty drive that only Jaguars deliver. That’s why it has always been popular with customers – and, thanks to the addition of R-Sport Black and our 2015 range enhancements, it now offers even better value for money.

Jaguar has discontinued SE, SE Business and the Premium Luxury trim, along with the 3.0-litre V6 petrol and 240PS 3.0-litre TDV6 diesel engines, to streamline the range. Hence, the new range now starts with the generously specified Luxury trim.

While, the cream of the crop, XF-R Sport Black gets a four-cylinder, 2.2-litre turbo diesel motor that churns out 200PS of power and 450Nm of torque, the engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox.
