Model year 2014 Jaguar XF will get an updated version of the base 2.2 litre turbodiesel engine in the current range. The new ECO2 engine runs cleaner while using less fuel, but retains the full 163 PS and 400 Nm as before. Also new for MY14 XFs is a refreshed sat-nav unit with more search options, a smart keyboard input as well as two new exterior colours.
The Ford-sourced engine now gets enhanced with larger exhaust gas circulation valves and a revised cooling assembly. CO2 emissions are reduced by six grammes per kilometre to just 129 g/km, enough to move it to a lower tax band in Europe. Economy too has improved from 19.6 km per litre to 20.4 km/L, while its 10.5-second 0-100 km/h time is unchanged.
The same 2.2 litre turbodiesel engine is available in local distributor Sisma Auto’s Jaguar XF line-up, albeit in the more powerful 200 PS and 450 Nm guise for RM398,888. Such fitted, it gets to 100 km/h in 8.5 seconds, emits 135 g/km and averages 19.6 km/L. Read Jonathan’s drive report on the new Malaysian Jaguar model range here.

Wonder how reliable is this car and how they compete with Bimmer and Merc.
400k Jaguar gets you to 100kmh in 8.5s. 170k VW Passat does the same century sprint. Hmm…. If I’m forced to spend 400k on a car, I’ll probably get the … BMW 528 :)
so your point is?
It will be a rare sight. I suppose there will still be people who will splurge that kind of money for some exclusivity.
so u judge how good a car is by how fast it gets to 100? damn…
hahah maybe can buy used evo 6..still faster than jaguar 2.2
That’s why everyone loves supercars no? I’m aware the big cat looks absolutely gorgeous but for that kind of money I would expect better performance out of it.
My friend’s super lightweight turbocharged Kancil gets from 0-100 in around 5sec or less. Those who’s looking to buy a 400k Jag or 170k VW should buy his Kancil instead. It’s the best.
…according to Simon’s logic. Hehe. =)
Dude, I’m sure you’ll feel really safe in a Kancil that does the century in 5secs, but I’ll pass :p
His Kancil got airbags, bro. Homemade units. Haha!
I wonder if anyone realized the Santa fe r diesel produces the same numbers fur fraction of the price
I’ve never heard of anyone saying “Phew, worked my ass off and now I’m in the market for a Jaguar. What, a Hyundai’s engine produce the same power? I’d get that instead la.”
Hehe.
508gt power is better than this jag but at a fraction of the cost
Another superb diesel model. And we Malaysians are deprived of clean diesel…(Supposed to be an oil producer and want to be an auto hub, konon…)
Bro check your facts… Malaysia has never been an oil producer and will never be!!! Our very little oil is disappearing very fast that we are now into the Enhanced Oil Recovery project. However we are still lucky as we are blessed with the Tapis blend which is one of the best in the world and now it is diminishing soon…
The same Peugeot 2.2 turbo diesel engine is in….Fords,Volvos,Citreons,Peugeots,Mazdas,Mitsubishi Outlander,and many more cars.It’s a terrific Engine….but hey….keep it quiet,wouldn’t want to spoil any illusions.Even the BMW mini has the smaller Peugeot engine.
It’s a Peugeot engine !!!!
