Jaguar has claimed the Fleet World 'Design of the Year
Editor's Award' for the second year running - this time for the
award-winning Jaguar XF.
Further adding to its collection of accolades, this is the
twelfth international award the four-door sports saloon has picked
up since its reveal last September.
Commenting on the award, Chairman of Judges George Emmerson
said: "The Jaguar C-XF won the Editor's Award in last year's
Fleet World Honours largely on the strength of its
appearance - a quite stunning car to look at. With XF, when you get
inside the cabin and feel the quality, then drive it on the open
road you realise that the company has delivered on its promise. It
is an exceptional car that turns heads like no other in its
class."
Jaguar's Design Director, Ian Callum said: "It's highly
gratifying to receive recognition for the new phase in Jaguar
design and this is further clarification that this new direction is
absolutely right for the brand."
Geoff Cousins, UK Managing Director of Jaguar Cars added: "When
combining the design qualities of this car with competitive pricing
and a wide range of standard specification, the XF really is a
great product for the corporate customer."
Editor of Fleet World, Ken Rogers commented: "The
Jaguar XF is a dramatic, luxury four-door saloon. It draws on
design cues from Jaguar's illustrious heritage, yet is still very
much a contemporary expression of state-of-the-art automotive
design. In the judges' view it is clearly destined to become a
future automotive design classic."
Notably, the XF recently clinched the coveted 'Car of the Year'
award from What Diesel Magazine, What Car? Magazine and
The Sun Motoring. Autocar named it their 'Design
of the Year' while Top Gear has hailed it their 'Limo of
the Year' since its launch.
