Spy Shots: Jaguar XF

This month, Jaguar debuted the C-XF Concept which was a preview of the successor to the ancient S-Type. Ian Callum, who penned the Jaguar XK, was also in charge of design of the XF.

New spy pictures of the production version of the C-XF have surfaced today on the web. Note the high beltline and coupe-like profile of the roof. The front end is clearly inspired if not lifted directly from the C-XF concept that Jaguar debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month. The rear of the car also clearly shows those thin taillamps from the concept that span the width of the back.

This mule is also wearing particularly large wheels, maybe 18- or 19-inchers sporting five wide spokes. Though the XF will largely carry over the underpinnings and engines of the current S-Type, the design is shaping up to be an eye-catching number that could, we stress could, turn around the fortunes of PAG's most beleagured brand.
