Jaguar XF: S-Type replacement gets new name
The next-generation Jaguar S-Type won't be an S-Type at all. Rather, it will be badged "XF," according to Jaguar chief Bibiana Boerio. Ms. Boerio told the U.K.'s Autocar the XF will "challenge people to think again about Jaguar as daring and different."
The new name creates a sense of consistency throughout the Jaguar lineup, with the XJ and XK already sharing a naming scheme. As previously reported, the XF will be constructed of steel, rather than aluminum. The decision was made in order to bring the XF to market more quickly.
