The Jaguar XF has won the Best Luxury Car over $60,000 category
in the 2009 Drive Car of the Year awards for the second consecutive
year. The XF 3.0 Diesel beat the Mercedes Benz E250 CDI and BMW
730d to take the title.
Chris Lidis, General Manager Jaguar Australia, commented "Jaguar
Australia is honoured to win this prestigious award for the second
consecutive year and this further confirms the acceptance of the XF
in the Australian market"
The judges commented that "praise for the Jag's 202kW
twin-turbocharged 3.0 litre diesel V6 came thick and fast. It's
rocketship performance and unruffled flexibility were admired by
all". They also noted that "The XF sailed through the remaining
criteria - nary a criticism was leveled at it's confident handling,
supple ride or pampering refinement".
Priced from $109,450 for the 3.0 petrol, the XF comes as
standard with a generous specification featuring a host of
innovative, industry-leading equipment. The XF range is available
for test drives at authorised Jaguar dealerships.
