2011 Jaguar XF Supercharged
2011 Jaguar XF Supercharged - Editor's Notebook - Automobile Magazine
An attractive and comfortable luxury machine.

The Jaguar XF debuted for the 2009 model year, and we fell in love with it immediately. We named it to our 2009 and 2010 All-Star teams and we adored our silver Four Seasons test car, even though it was extremely sketchy in the reliability department. Since the XF's debut, it has received upgraded powertrains across the board, including the awesome 470-hp, 5.0-liter V-8 in the XF Supercharged.
