The all-wheel drive version also has a unique bonnet design with distinctive new vents and a deeper ‘power bulge’.

To help driving enjoyment, there’s also electric power assisted steering for precision and improved feel, and braking has been improved by introducing torque vectoring which helps improve agility.
The firm is also replacing its V8 S Convertible model, which produced 495PS, with a new supercharged V8 in the F-Type R Convertible which is available in all wheel drive and rear wheel drive configurations. This engine will produce an impressive 550PS.
The Jaguar F-Type also features a new infotainment system which supports android and Apple smartphone connectivity, is intuitive to operate and enables the owner to have remote engine starts.
