BRAKES
The XF uses large 326mm x 20mm vented front discs on all naturally aspirated models and 355mm x 32mm vented front discs on the SV8 model for powerful, balanced braking performance. The rear discs on all versions measure 326mm x 20mm.
An extremely stiff pedal box contributes to a particularly solid pedal feel, and the brake assistance is tuned to give a very progressive feel, while softening the initial response.
The XF uses Jaguar’s Electric Parking Brake, with a small and neat, chromed release in the centre console. As the XF’s braking system communicates electronically with the shift-by-wire technology of the JaguarDrive SelectorTM function, so the Parking Brake is released automatically as Drive is selected – although the Parking Brake can also be engaged and disengaged manually if appropriate.
