The XF's choice of 4 outstanding engines means the perfect powertrain for every driver preference. It offers everything from one of the most refined diesels in it's class, the 2.7 turbodiesel, through a choice of 3.0 litre V6 or 4.2 litre V8 petrol, to a 4.2 litre supercharged V8 petrol with 306 kW. All XF's feature a six speed automatic transmission that includes a unique, all new JaguarDrive selector - an industry first rotary shift interface - and the Jaguar Sequential Shift System with steering mounted paddles for one-touch manual control. Whatever the choice, they all offer refinement, flexibility and outstanding performance.

Prices for the XF model range are as follows:

Jaguar dealers have taken close to 200 pre-sales orders in Australia, which is considerably above expectations this far ahead of launch. "The interest in XF - before anybody in this country has even driven the car - has been very satisfying. If things continue in this way, we may have sold out our entire 2008 allocation before a single vehicle is on the road here. What is also encouraging is that the XF is attracting a new group of customers to the Jaguar brand: more than three-quarters of those who are contacting us about XF have never owned a Jaguar before." commented Dorian Lapthorne, General Manager, Jaguar Australia.

The new XF is a milestone for Jaguar. In every respect it signals the future of the marque - and yet it remains true to the essence of what has always made Jaguars great cars.
