Jaguar Unveils XF S Sportbrake: Powerful Rival to Audi RS6 Avant
Jaguar has revealed the sportiest and most powerful version of its XF Sportbrake, the XF S Sportbrake, which aims to rival the Audi RS6 Avant. This model is set to be a formidable competitor in the high-performance estate car segment.
The Jaguar XF S Sportbrake is powered by a 3.0-litre V6 supercharged petrol engine that produces 380 PS. While this doesn't quite match the aggressive performance of the Audi RS6 Avant, which ranges from 560 to over 600 PS, it is the most powerful XF Kombilimousine offered by Jaguar. Jaguar has designed the XF S Sportbrake to appeal to sporty customers who want both driving enjoyment and practicality, positioning it against models like the BMW 5er Touring and Mercedes E 43 AMG T-Modell, rather than directly against the RS6 Avant.
Contrary to some expectations, Jaguar has not officially offered a more powerful, race-inspired variant (like an RSV or SVR) of the XF Sportbrake. The XF S Sportbrake is the most powerful version available. Jaguar has focused its SVR branding on models such as the F-Type SVR, F-Pace SVR, and XE SV Project 8, not on the XF.
In summary, the Jaguar XF S Sportbrake is the sportiest and most powerful version of the XF Sportbrake, offering 380 PS from its 3.0-litre V6 supercharged petrol engine. While it doesn't quite match the Audi RS6 Avant in terms of power, it provides a compelling alternative for those seeking a blend of performance and practicality. As of now, there is no official SVR version of the XF Sportbrake, but Jaguar is considering such a model.
