Jaguar Australia Continues to Celebrate 75th Anniversary with Release of XF 3.0 V6 Petrol

NORTH RYDE, AUSTRALIA – July 22, 2010: Continuing the celebration of Jaguar's 75th Anniversary, Jaguar Australia is proud to announce the XF 3.0 V6, bringing XF ownership under $100,000 for the first time.

The XF 3.0 V6 is comprehensively equipped, including alloy wheels, leather interior, electric front seats, satellite navigation, and dual-zone climate control, ensuring that more affordable XF ownership does not bring compromise.

Power is delivered by Jaguar's 3.0 Litre V6 Petrol engine, with Jaguar Sequential Shift transmission offering the choice of Drive, Sport Automatic or Manual gearshift modes. Using one-touch paddles mounted behind the steering wheel the driver can instantly control gear changes manually up and down.

"Jaguar's 75th Anniversary is a significant milestone. And the XF 3.0 V6 is a significant moment for the Jaguar XF in Australia" said Kevin Goult, General Manager, Jaguar Australia. "We are well aware of the increasing demand for premium luxury motoring in Australia, Jaguar now has an XF that will appeal to a broader range of customers, spark interest and entice new customers with a product offering of less than $100,000 driveaway"

"Owners will effectively have a motoring experience normally associated with a six-figure outlay, for only five" he added.

Jaguar Australia has also just launched Jaguar Financial Services, to further enhance the purchasing experience, and to provide Jaguar dealers with a suite of competitively priced and innovative funding solutions for customers. Jaguar Financial Services has been formed through a partnership with Capital Finance Australia.
