Jaguar XFR-S Sedan and F-TYPE shown at the LA Auto Show-March 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:53

Jaguar is currently showcasing two significant models at the LA Auto Show namely the new Jaguar F-TYPE which made its debut at the Paris Motor Show and the Jaguar XFR-S sedan. The Jaguar XFR-S sedan makes its global debut at the LA Auto Show and is considered to be the fastest and most powerful sports sedan Jaguar has ever built.

??The Jaguar XFR-S Sedan?? is all about power

The Jaguar XFR-S sedan, developed by Jaguar Land Rover’s specialist ETO division, features a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 engine that produces 405kW and is mated to an 8-speed Quickshift transmission. The Jaguar XFR-S sedan is capable of achieving 0-100km/h in just over 4.4 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 299km/h.

The Jaguar XFR-S sedan was unveiled by Adrian Hallmark, Global Brand Director, Jaguar Cars and he had the following to say, “Sporting character is evident in all Jaguar saloons. In the XFR-S that character has been amplified, the result being a truly engaging car with a combination of technical innovation, assertive design and staggering performance that will satisfy the most demanding of drivers.”

The Jaguar F-TYPE with ‘black’ pack??

Jaguar’s all-new two-seater F-TYPE is making its North American debut at the 2012 LA Auto Show and is shown here for the first time in special-order Firesand paintwork and equipped with optional ‘Design’ and interior and exterior ‘black’ packs. This particular individual V6 S model F-TYPE demonstrates the range of personalisation options that are available for the new F-TYPE.

Ian Cullum, Director of Design, Jaguar, said, “For me, good automotive design should be about creating excitement, so being here in LA to witness the positive reaction to both the XFR-S and F-TYPE – two highly distinctive performance cars – is very satisfying.

“??The Jaguar F-Type can be expected in South Africa in the second half of 2013 and prices will be made available closer to its South African launch. It is unclear when the Jaguar XFR-S sedan will become available in South Africa.
