The XF Sportbrake takes Jaguar’s globally acclaimed sporting saloon and extends its versatility and practicality while retaining the model’s core values of dramatic, muscular elegance, a dynamic driving experience and contemporary luxury.

The XF Sportbrake builds on the extensive refresh received by the XF saloon for the 2012 model year which saw it adopt a more assertive appearance in line with the flagship XJ model – including striking new lightblade headlamp technology.

At a glance:
  • The XF Sportbrake is the most versatile derivative of the Jaguar XF
  • It represents a compelling combination of elegance and capability – both practical and dynamic
  • It extends Jaguar’s design leadership in a new direction to create a desirable, premium estate
  • Remote-fold levers drop the 60:40 split rear seats (with integral ski-hatch) to create up to 1675 litres of load-space
  • A full five-seater with an additional 48mm of rear headroom
  • New rear air suspension allows for self-levelling while load carrying with no dynamic penalty
  • Jaguar’s Adaptive Dynamics System – which continuously monitors the suspension and can adjust damping rates accordingly up to 500 times a second – is available on all XF Sportbrake derivatives
  • Tailgate features ‘soft-close’ as standard, and can be specified with fully powered open/close functionality
  • Acclaimed premium-quality interior materials used in the cabin are also a feature of the load-space
  • Available with both Aero and Black styling packs from launch for additional on-the-road presence
  • Driven by Jaguar’s refined, powerful and efficient range of four- and six-cylinder turbo-diesel engines
  • Matches the XF saloon for both aerodynamics, torsional stiffness and dynamic handling ability
  • A range of accessories – both internally mounted by floor rails and externally by roof rails – extends the versatility of the XF Sportbrake still further
