2021 Jaguar XF Review

Name: 2021 Jaguar XF Review
Brand: Jaguar

Price Range: $30,990 - $33,900

Jaguar XF P300 R-Dynamic SE Sedan Exterior. Black Exterior Pack Shown.

The 2021 Jaguar XF is an alluring luxury sedan with arresting visual style and a comfortable ride. But behind its initial presentation, the XF struggles to deliver on its promises and lacks real athletic credentials. This luxury sedan is defined not by its strengths but by its weaknesses, and while there are a few significant wins, there aren't enough to cover up its many blemishes.

2017 Jaguar XF 35t Premium 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)

I leased this car in October 2017 because the lease deal was $399 zero down for a $$63,000 car. Has a lot of safety features and the best part is the supercharged engine which is the best part about the car. However after a month of ownership the rear view camera was dangling as well as the rear heated seat component. They were both replaced but the same issue occurred a week later. The …

2017 Jaguar XF S 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)

Just finished an Audi A6 lease, and was planning to do the easy thing and get into another Audi. Then....I drove the Jaguar XF. I first drove a base XF in premium trim, then I drove XF S AWD. And wow, does the XF S AWD drive! The steering feel, handling, and responsiveness far exceed the Audi and the BMW 5 series. If you care about the joy of driving, you owe it to yourself to check …

Very satisfied

2017 Jaguar XF 35t Premium 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)

Have had this car for 2 years now. Overall extremely satisfied with the car. 33mpg on road trips in a car with 340hp is great. Very smooth ride quality. Seats....after two years....are still very supportive. I'm 6'2/240lbs and am very comfortable. Tires have, so far, lasted 28,000 miles which is fabulous. Absolutely no mechanical problems. Had some odd cosmetic issues present at …

Love my new XF - 2016 Redesign

2016 Jaguar XF 35t Prestige 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)

So...I've owned pretty much every German brand, a few Japanese cars and two American sports cars. I wasn't even considering Jaguar as option this go-around, but stopped at the dealership to check out the XE (boy was that TOO small). Then I sat in the XF and realized this was the perfect car (fit and finish). Once I took it for a test drive I was hooked. It feels like a big cat ready to …

Our experts like the XF models:

Clear Exit Monitor: Uses the blind-spot monitoring system to alert passengers of traffic coming from behind while exiting the vehicle.
Rear Traffic Monitor: Warns the driver of oncoming vehicles when backing out of a tight parking spot.
Traffic Sign Recognition: Alerts the driver to changes in speed limits and road conditions. Can automatically adjust the speed if the adaptive speed limiter is enabled.
