Jaguar XF trim levels explained

Introduced in 2007, the Jaguar XF made a strong impression on motorists who were looking for an alternative to the traditional trio of Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

The XF's success centred around its imposing appearance, excellent driving dynamics, and elegant interior design. A broad choice of engines ensured both fleet and private buyers were well-catered for, making the XF an appealing prospect.

There are a range of used examples to choose from. To make it easier to find the right XF for you, we have highlighted the different specifications that were available on models built after 2015.
