What Is the 2019 Jaguar F-Type?
The Jaguar F-Type is a luxury sports car that’s offered in coupe and convertible body styles, with a choice of rear- or all-wheel drive. It seats two and is powered by a standard 296-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. A supercharged 3.0-liter V-6 rated at 340 or 380 hp and a supercharged V-8 rated at 550 or 575 hp are available. Competitors include the Porsche 911 and Mercedes-AMG GT.
What’s New on the 2019 Jaguar F-Type?
All F-Types now have the InControl Touch Pro multimedia system, which gets minor changes this year. Lane keep assist, emergency braking and a driver-drowsiness monitor are now standard.
What Features in the 2019 Jaguar F-Type Are Most Important?
If you prefer shifting gears yourself, you can still get a manual transmission; a six-speed manual is available with the F-Type’s supercharged V-6 engine, along with an eight-speed automatic transmission (the other engines only team with the automatic). Available all-wheel drive can help extend the driving season for both coupe and convertible versions.
Should I Buy the 2019 Jaguar F-Type?
The F-Type offers good handling, powerful V-8 performance and a comfortable cabin. Rear visibility isn’t great, and neither is cabin storage, but if you’re looking for an entertaining sports car, the F-Type is worth a test drive.
