Expanding the highly successful XF range, the new coupé will combine striking looks with real driver appeal by adding a dramatic body to the saloon’s sporty underpinnings.

As Auto Express revealed in Issue 1,039, the XF Coupé is a key part of a new model strategy by Jaguar’s parent company, Tata. The raft of sporty machines will include the model you see here, as well as a drop-top Roadster version and a two-seater rival to the Porsche Boxster.

Size wise, it would be a 6 series competitor, wouldn't you think?

If we haven't learned before, don't get your hopes up for those headlights...

Thank you! I knew there was a difference and what made me like it better. I realized I'm fine with uber-grill, it's the headlights that had been bothering me.

why would an XF coupe compete with the 3 series, and A5, the sedan XF is a more upscale car than both of those.....that doesnt make sense, it would be more a 6 series competitor on size and i assume closer in price to the new e classcoupe (CLK) the XF starts at 50 grand i doubt a 2 door variant would be any cheaper

Wow, I love it, it very sporty, sexy, modern, and elegant. nd if the production car come out like this, it will sales like hot cake.

I belief Ian is the same guy this design this car and is also the same personal that use to design for Aston martion as well. So I see a lot of Aston Martin design in this XF coupe. Very nicely done, but can the production full it promise?

It's hot, but that Caddy CTS Coupe is better looking.

You're probably right. Too bad, because elevating the positioning of the grille and making it more prominent really makes the design come together. Changing up the headlights and the side intake treatment also makes a huge difference in the presence of the car. Very nice.

How can you take this seriously when the parent company is named Tata?
