Jaguars are great cars and definitely supercharged engines go with the brand tradition but this 2.0 turbo engine is not bad at all.Supercharged engines have performance but are not fuel efficient.Why wouldn't I buy a Jag with this efficient engine, who cares, you still drive a Jag and girls go with you:)
Shut up, go away. This is the only channel that actually has POV driving without some jerk babbling away. This is perfect and should stay as is. If you want reviews with people talking, there are LOADS of other channels out there. Don't try to change something completely different to average content. As I said, there are tons of (boring) car reviews out there.
me too. they're going for about $30k right now and I join the military in 9 months. I may just have to buy one :) at first I thought this was just some fancy toyota camry but boy was I wrong, it's the equivalent of a rolls royce with a much better price tag.
lovely videos as always. this jag shud never have anything less than a supercharged v6. that 4 cylinder sounds like its taking abuse. sc v6 or v8. thats all jag.
Now that you think about it, this 4 cylinder model isn't so bad. Considering the 528i had a turbo 4 and the A6 2.0T has a turbo 4 cylinder. Btw isnt the 2.0t in this a ford engine?
as jaguar is a premium brand and the market that buys theses cars are most likely business men doing long miles instead of back roads, vice versa, no need for a sporty manual box.
@@MrMileHigh she is a brilliant runner. Will never go back to Benz or BMW for the value it offers. At 160 km'h she runs on 2100 refs! Aparently, the States decided to disconue all the other engines except the 2l turbo, which tells me something.
Amazing car I just wish they wouldn't have gotten rid of the v8 base model. the four cylinder sounds so wimpy. Stupid fuel economy regulations :(. (Yes I know higher models, and xfr and xfr-s have supercharged v8's but still)
I feel that they are not doing the XF justice by displaying it's 2.0L engine. I own a 2012 5.0 V8 XF and I would really like to see them review that car.
I agree, the 2012 was the best year for this car IMO. It has the updated sexy design and the smooth and powerful 5.0 V8. I am having a hard time deciding what I can replace this car with at this price tag.
MrHP, do you own the 2012? Currently looking at a couple of them used - research phase on engine etc. Have you had any issues with yours? Do you mind if I ask how many miles it has? Any issues with the water pump / crossover pipe?
I'm all for high tech/more efficient engines, but this 4 cylinder just sounds way too rough and cheap for a car of this price. The should have stuck with the NA V6 IMO.
You see it flashing because the camera he's using is probably shooting 30fps or less. The LCD screen on the dash which displays what gear he driving has a screen refresh rate that offsets his camera fps. That's why on video you see it flashing. To see it it flash through naked eye it has to be a very slow refresh rate to even see it.
Well I’m sure that it feels peppy, the 2.0 T engine they use in this XF is from Ford, and the same 2.0 T engine in the 2013 Ford fusion 2.0 T has 240 hp and 270 pound feet of torque and is faster than this, at $50-$70,000 that is just unacceptable, Plus a base 2012 BMW 328i I will do 0 60 in 5.4...
PLEASE.. What IS the point of this if the driver is NOT talking to us.. telling us his experiences.. how it is, how it behave, how it feels. For truly good driver impressions.. see video films fom the UK car magazines.. Autocar. And THAT's how it should be done. IMO..
Good car, luxurious but not very sporty. That transmission is the issue I think, 8 speed torque converter auto in a 2.0T? If you have to go auto at least give us a dual clutch, if you can't afford that then give us a manual. Why doesn't jaguar offer no manuals whatsoever?
"To come up with something NEW".. I don't think so.. not ONE word of detail ! Not a word of advice. What sort of a test is this ? Any fool can use a Video camera and produce this rubbish. Utter NONSENSE. As I say.. check out Autocar.. in the UK. The worlds oldest car mag' and for a reason. Quality Never mind "get over it".. get a grip. Wise up.. wake up ! Colonials.. huh
Love the way he did the video fell in love with the car

One of the better videos you've done, especially the interior stuff at the beginning. And that sounds pretty good for a 4 cylinder!!
This car is just beautiful and the interior is gorgeous

best video that i watched so far
Engine noise massively lets it down especially when the exterior and interior looks so elegant.
This one is particularly gorgeous with the sport package, you don’t see many with that package
Yes! I love this car! Thank you so much for posting!
The noise that the vents make when they rise is a nice touch.
Bravo!!! Another great video by Winding Road.
The most beautiful & comfortable seats in Auto market & especially on this vehicle. ;)
Jaguar was helped out by the good people at ford.... thank god
GwoodBloodz Jaguar was actually being bankrupt by ford. TATA owns jaguar now.
Ibrahim Bajabar who’s that
Bellissima macchina.
i've just fell in love
me too. they're going for about $30k right now and I join the military in 9 months. I may just have to buy one :) at first I thought this was just some fancy toyota camry but boy was I wrong, it's the equivalent of a rolls royce with a much better price tag.
@@sbattvids i just found one in mint condition for $10,900 im selling my car to buy it
@@sbattvidshow was the military? You bought it?
hello sir,when do you post a pov testdrive whit audi Q7 and vw Touareg? the older version?
I found a car like this, only has 88k miles on it, is it a good buy in '21???
lovely videos as always. this jag shud never have anything less than a supercharged v6. that 4 cylinder sounds like its taking abuse. sc v6 or v8. thats all jag.
Agreed but not everyone can afford or want to run a 3.0 V6 or a 5.0 V8. Most people just want the car it self with a much more economical engine.
Love the car ❤️❤️
I have a request. As soon as possible, please drive the Infinity Q50 awd sport. Thanks.
Now that you think about it, this 4 cylinder model isn't so bad. Considering the 528i had a turbo 4 and the A6 2.0T has a turbo 4 cylinder. Btw isnt the 2.0t in this a ford engine?
I love the new jaguars but this thing sounds like a Saturn ion under the hood...ugh..Does it really have that loud of tire slap on rough surfaces?
Does jag xf has dual clutch trans?
Just to add out of curiosity, what mileage did you guys get with this 2.0 powertrain?
Yes.
as jaguar is a premium brand and the market that buys theses cars are most likely business men doing long miles instead of back roads, vice versa, no need for a sporty manual box.
Very nice video as always . Is the 4 cyl enough for this car ?? Thank you !
Yes, its a 4 cyl 2000 cc Turbo, very potent. 0 - 100 km/h 7.9 secs. I bought one a week ago.
@Theodupreez I'm picking one up tomorrow, and I'm hesitant with it being the 4c turbo. How do you like yours so far?? Thanks

The turbo is not working ain't post to rev up thar high its under boosting mine has that problem
Please try and get a hold of a malibu 2.0t
Amazing car I just wish they wouldn't have gotten rid of the v8 base model. the four cylinder sounds so wimpy. Stupid fuel economy regulations :(. (Yes I know higher models, and xfr and xfr-s have supercharged v8's but still)
I agree!!! Same in Ireland... although nothing looks worse than Alfas with front reg plates cos they're on the side.... Looks awful!!
please test drive the 2014 jeep grand Cherokee
Cool
Is it fast?
IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN DON'T WATCH IT! IT'S SIMPLE AS THAT.
its just V6 240, so yes it is fast

dynamic mode?
Stupid question.. But what are the best performance mods to squeeze everything out of the 2.0 litre?
Turbo is almost always the best option for a low dispacement engine.
Intake, downpipe, exhaust, and a tune. You should be able to easily squeeze out another 50 HP.
+MrHPJunkie If you're gonna go the naturally aspirated route, make sure you do the cams lol
yea
Supercar! True?
Imo jaguars should have v6s and up..
I'm all for high tech/more efficient engines, but this 4 cylinder just sounds way too rough and cheap for a car of this price. The should have stuck with the NA V6 IMO.
Diesel??
Do Cadillac XTS
certainly looks good, but jaguar has to improve its tech
the engine is too quiet! i wish u could have tested out the 3.0
What do you mean?
do some night videos too
That's flashing shifter position would annoy the hell out of me
You see it flashing because the camera he's using is probably shooting 30fps or less.

Wow, not much sound-deadening in this!
Do then Ford fusion
The entire package seemed underwhelming once it started moving.
5 series
Well I’m sure that it feels peppy, the 2.0 T engine they use in this XF is from Ford, and the same 2.0 T engine in the 2013 Ford fusion 2.0 T has 240 hp and 270 pound feet of torque and is faster than this, at $50-$70,000 that is just unacceptable, Plus a base 2012 BMW 328i I will do 0 60 in 5.4...
Suspension is an issue with jaguar :/
The air con vents open sounds like someone horns.
PLEASE..
What IS the point of this if the driver is NOT talking to us.. telling us his experiences.. how it is, how it behave, how it feels.
For truly good driver impressions.. see video films fom the UK car magazines.. Autocar.
And THAT's how it should be done. IMO..
TYPE F !
Don't ya just love I-275...lol
Well I prefer fuel economy over gas guzzling premium.😌
A lot of people look at the interior as luxury features, I look at it as S*** to break
Good car, luxurious but not very sporty. That transmission is the issue I think, 8 speed torque converter auto in a 2.0T?
If you have to go auto at least give us a dual clutch, if you can't afford that then give us a manual. Why doesn't jaguar offer no manuals whatsoever?
then dont watch it
dafuq ??!!?!! 300km/h in a 2.0t? xP
Go watch someone else!
manual ahahahaha
Ggbbn
On my 2012 Jaguar xf 2.0
0-60 is 6.12 seconds if you launch it in sports mode
