The 2020 Jaguar XF serves as the brand's mainstay sedan, priced and sized at the heart of the luxury market. Buyers can be assured of pleasing craftsman and fine performance, punctuated by racy charm that distinguishes the XF from key competitors.
What's New for 2020
The new Checkered Flag Special Edition provides sporty appearance enhancements. Parking sensors and full smartphone integration are now standard. The Portfolio trim and diesel option have departed.
Choosing Your Jaguar XF
The mid-size Jaguar XF starts out with rear-wheel drive and the 25t engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that develops 247 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. The 30t is a higher output version of the 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 296 hp and 295 lb-ft. The top choice is named S, a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 with 380 hp and 332 lb-ft.
All engines use an eight-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is either a $3,000 option or standard throughout the lineup. The wagon XF Sportbrake is only available with the 30t and S engine setups, and it comes standard with all-wheel drive.
With the 25t, the XF is EPA-rated at 25 miles per gallon city, 34 mpg highway, and 28 combined with rear-wheel drive. The 30t setup achieves 23/31/26 mpg (city/highway/combined), while the S V6 comes in at 20/28/23 mpg.
The XF is now offered in four trims:
The 2020 Jaguar XF Premium's lack of leather seats makes it a non-starter for us. The Prestige provides access to everything buyers need to build a proper Jaguar, including the more potent four-cylinder. The upper trims are certainly more exciting, but value drops off as performance increases.
