In the powertrain department, the XF will be offered with four engines, though only two will be available in the U.S. - a naturally-aspirated 4.2L AJ V8 and a supercharged 4.2L AJ V8. The latter produces 300 bhp/310 ft-lbs of torque, while the blown version makes 420 bhp/408 ft-lbs. They're the same engine used in the Jaguar XK and XKR, respectively, and we hear a 500-hp motor is also being developed. Europe will also get a 2.7L V6 twin-turbo diesel and a 3.0L V6 producing 240bhp and 221ft-lbs. of torque. All engines will be mated to Jaguar's excellent six-speed automatic with steering wheel-mounted paddles that produce shifts even quicker than in the XK. Lastly, 0-60 mph for an XF with the supercharged V8 will take an estimated 5.1 seconds, while a naturally aspirated car will be right behind at 6.2 seconds.
