JAGUAR’S new 2.2D luxury sedan brings many firsts, both to the polished XF nameplate and the hallowed British brand behind it.
, , As the first four-cylinder XF, it’s also Jaguar’s most efficient model ever, as well as being the cheapest large Jaguar in memory and the entry to the facelifted 12MY XF range.
, , Despite that, this sub-$80,000 large luxury sedan – a direct competitor to volume-selling German diesels like BMW’s 520d and E220 CDI sedan – offers more performance than its key rivals, without skimping on the quality, luxury and refinement expected at this level.
, , Will Jaguar’s exclusivity, the XF’s undoubted style and the 2.2D’s refined performance draw as many Australian buyers as it deserves to?
