Jaguar XFR 2010










The 2010 XF Takes Jaguar Into The New Millennium


The British brand Jaguar is synonymous with luxury and refined style but it has been primarily been popular with more established and older consumers due to its classic and subdued styling. Jaguar boldly moves into the next millennium with a contemporary and ultra modern vehicle; the sporty 2010 Jaguar XF. This auto first burst into the automotive scene in 2010 so it's definitely a newcomer to the luxury market. Its appearance is daring, modern and entirely different from any Jaguar produced in the past. This car has a sporty bold look; it's aggressive and modern looking with lines that are usually found on a sports coupe. The vehicle's stunning body is perfectly accentuated by beautiful eighteen inch wheels and an automatic sunroof allowing you to enjoy the warm breeze as you cruise down the street in glamorous style.

There are different engine choices available, all with varying degrees of power. The XF Premium trim comes equipped with a 8 cylinder 5.0 Ltr with 385 horsepower. The XF Supercharged engine has the same specs but puts out 470 horsepower. The ultimate Supercharged XFR puts out a total of 510 horsepower and 461 lb feet of torque. This car handles extremely well on the open road and is quite agile, while acceleration is immensely powerful due to the substantial amount of power. The base model receives approximately 16 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the freeway.

The contemporary theme continues on the interior of the auto, with out-of-this world gadgets such as a start button that flashes red and pulses when you start the engine plus a rotary shift dial which magically emerges right into your hand. The navigation system, music and temperature can all be conveniently controlled through a seven inch lcd touch screen. The upper level trims come equipped with a premium stereo system manufactured by B&W which provides up to 440 watts of crystal clear sound. All trims include a dual zone climate control system, keyless ignition, work with Bluetooth devices, comfortable and roomy seats produced out of fine leather and a navigation system with up to date traffic and weather updates. JaguarSense allows you to activate the cabin lights by simply moving your hands near the vicinity of the lights. There is plenty of storage room with a trunk space measuring an impressive 17.7 cubic feet.

As you would expect from Jaguar, plenty of safety precautions are in place. There are active head restraints which protect the head and neck during impact plus an air bag system. Other safety precautions include ABS and Traction and Stability control. The upper level trims are available with an optional blind spot warning mechanism.

If you are looking for a luxury car with high performance and the latest technical gadgets then the XJ would be a suitable car. The XJ still offers the Jaguar heritage and Legacy but now with a modern touch and high tech gadgets. If you choose the Supercharged XFR trim you receive a beast of a car that can run with the best in the luxury midsize segment. It doesn't get much cooler than a rotary shift dial that just emerges from the console right into your very own hand! MSRP for the base model starts at around the $51k range.
