MODEL: XF
SUBJECT: 2012 MY
I. INTRODUCTION
The 2012 model year brings a significant freshening to the multi award winning XF first launched in early
2008. Since launch, the XF has undergone several changes including the introduction of three versions of
an all new 5.0L engine.
The 2012 model year focuses on further enhancing the two time winner of the
Automobile Magazine All‐Star award f0r Outstanding Exterior and Interior. Exterior modifications bring
the 12MY XF up‐to‐date with the latest Jaguar design style to include new Xenon headlamps with LED
signatures, a bigger, bolder
grille and tail lamps that wrap around the trunk lid in a symmetrical design.
On the inside it introduces a more modern and detailed appearance. Last but not least, it enhances the
technology content of the vehicle by bringing a host of features that were first introduced on the all‐
new
XJ at 11MY.
All 12MY XF's have a more assertive look to them, but the XFR receives further differentiation with a
significantly more aggressive front and rear styling treatment allowing it to stand apart from the rest of
the range ‐‐ perfectly complementing a performance that Automobile magazine's executive editor, Joe
DeMatio, described "The supercharged XFR has a brilliant new V8 engine that churns out more than 500
hp, and the car strikes the seemingly impossible balance of being extremely fast and extremely
composed without sacrificing everyday drivability or comfort."

2. MODEL LINE UP CHANGE
At 12MY, a new derivative – the XF Portfolio – is introduced, replacing the XF Premium model and the
Portfolio package which are both discontinued.

standard on the 11MY XF Premium will now be offered as part of attractively priced new option
packages.
