The appeal of the award-winning Jaguar XF Sedan is heightened further with the introduction of new R-Dynamic Black model.
Developed from the XF R-Dynamic S, this exclusive model benefits from a number of key features designed to give it an even more confident, assured and purposeful presence. The Jaguar XF delivers an unrivalled balance of outstanding ride, handling, refinement and luxury together with a choice of two powerful, efficient powertrains.
The XF’s Black Pack includes Gloss Black finish applied to the door mirror caps and side sills in addition to the grille, grille surround, side window surrounds, fender vents and rear badges. There’s also privacy glass and a panoramic roof, red brake calipers and 19-inch Gloss Black wheels in ‘Style 5106’. The XF R-Dynamic Black is available in the full range of colours.
The luxurious interior is enriched with beautifully crafted Satin Charcoal Ash veneers, while bright metal pedals add a further finishing touch. The sense of serenity and refinement within XF is heightened further by the enhanced Premium Cabin Lighting feature, which offers a choice of 30 colours in place of the previous 10.
The fast, intuitive and responsive Pivi Pro infotainment system is now better than ever too. In the XF it already has a range of embedded apps, including Spotify, and Apple CarPlay® as standard. Android Auto™ is standard too.
Soon, wireless Apple CarPlay® will become available to customers in a software-over-the-air (SOTA) update*, to make smartphone connectivity even simpler and more convenient. Wireless Android Auto™ will also become available at the same time*. The XF’s SOTA capability enables Pivi Pro and vehicle systems to be updated remotely and seamlessly. This means they always have the latest software without the customer having to visit their Retailer – and Pivi Pro’s dual-SIM technology means you can stream music at the same time.
Pivi Pro can also connect two phones simultaneously via Bluetooth, and the optional wireless device charging pad has a signal booster to improve network reception. The system also provides clearer calls with the help of the vehicle’s external aerial.
On the road, the XF continues to set the benchmark with its ideal balance of agility, handling and ride quality. The engaging, rewarding drive it delivers is second to none, and is matched to inherently low levels of cabin noise, which are further reduced using Active Road Noise Cancellation technology. This is especially effective in cancelling out low-frequency sounds, helping to reduce driver fatigue on long journeys.
With a focus on air quality, occupant comfort and wellbeing are prioritised. The XF offers a cabin air ionisation system with PM2.5 filtration to capture ultrafine airborne particles and allergens.
In South Africa the R-Dynamic Black model, like all XF models, is powered by a choice of two refined and efficient 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium petrol and diesel engines. Both engines are matched exclusively to smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmissions with Intelligent Driveline Dynamics.
The 147kW D200 diesel engine develops an impressive 430Nm of torque. This engine is the most efficient in the model range and enables the rear-wheel drive XF to deliver fuel as low as 4.9l/100km**. The smooth, powerful petrol P250 engine delivers 184kW and 365Nm of torque and enables the XF to accelerate from 0-100km/h in 6.9 seconds with a top speed of 250km/h.
All Jaguar vehicles come with a standard 5-year/100,000km Jaguar Care Plan and warranty.
