Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake spied testing at the Nurburgring

2014 Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake spy photo 26.07.2013 / S. Baldauf/SB-Medien

 

Due most likely in September

We received a second batch of spy photos with the 2014 Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake which should come out in September during the Frankfurt Motor Show.

A viable alternative to the 2014 Audi RS6 Avant, Jaguar's Sportbrake version of the XFR-S will get a similar treatment as it sedan cousin, such as the bigger alloy wheels, larger air intakes in front bumper, beefier brake kit and a quad exhaust arrangement at the back.

Under the hood we expect to find the same supercharged 5.0-liter V8 engine rated at 542 bhp (405 kW) and 502 lb-ft (680 Nm) of torque. The powerful engine will be mated to an eight-speed gearbox developed by ZF which will enable the XFR-S Sportbrake to perform the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) run in approximately 4.8 seconds since the sedan does it in 4.6s. Top speed will be electronically-capped to 186 mph (300 km/h) just like in the sedan.

Wagons are gaining popularity in Singapore cos of high cost of car ownership... Everyone is looking for something that is multi purpose now.

Boot space, comfort, power, all in one...

Yep... Wagons might be a better option compared to SUVs or MPVs if you don't want to sacrifice handling which, to me, is super important!!!
