Oracle of DelphiThe new 2008 Jaguar XF (LINK)
August 29th 2007 19:23
After much confusion as to where and when the official notification of the car could be made, there are a few details now emerging about the new 2008 Jaguar XF.
The car will have a choice of two different engines, but both will feature the new six speed automatic transmission, and will also feature paddles for manual gear changing mounted behind the steering wheel, which will enable smooth gear changing without having to let of the steering wheel.
The 4.2 liter V8 engine supplies around 300 bhp and will power the car from zero to sixty mph in 6.2 seconds. Although the top of the range engine the 4.2 liter Supercharged V8 engine will provide the car with a staggering 420 bhp, which reduces the zero to sixty mph down to 5.1 seconds, however with both models the top speed will be capped at 155 mph.
In the US there will be three different levels of trim, these will be Luxury, Premium Luxury and of course the Supercharged sports model, each will have slight variations to the other, what the exact details are going to be we will have to wait for further details to be released.
If you are unable to wait to put your name down on the list to be one of the first owners of this fantastic car then you are in luck, Jaguar are accepting orders for the XF, although you will have to wait until March 2008 to drive get behind the wheel.
