The possibility of driving a Jaguar is now that much more readily available courtesy of AVIS Luxury Cars. Jaguar Land Rover SA has made two F-TYPE Jaguars and 45 new XFs available for the luxury rental fleet nationwide.
“Jaguar’s partnership with AVIS provides an ideal platform for consumers to experience a Jaguar first-hand outside of the dealership environment,” says Kevin Flynn, Managing Director of Jaguar Land Rover South Africa and sub-Sahara Africa.
With demand for F-TYPE far exceeding supply, the impressive sports car newcomer is one of the most exciting additions to the new vehicle market this year. It has also been named a 2013 Car of the Year finalist. “While F-TYPE is a bespoke sports car that won’t ultimately suit the practicalities of many new car buyers, the allure of experiencing one first hand is difficult to ignore. But that desire may just become that much more viable through an AVIS experience,” said Flynn.
The AVIS Luxury Cars fleet provides a number of premium vehicles to discerning customers country-wide, whether its for a special occasion or merely what individuals are accustomed to. The opportunity to have the acclaimed XF as a car-hire option is an important step for the company towards providing a Jaguar experience to a wider audience.
Both the Jaguar XF 2.2d and latest 2.0i4 turbocharged petrol models are available in the fleet, all in Premium Luxury spec. The world’s most beautiful executive saloon naturally offers a host of features and innovative technology, packaged in true Jaguar style.
The frugal diesel XF drove from Pretoria to Durban and back on a single tank of fuel last year, returning 4,9 l/100km. But that’s just a bonus on top of the luxury package and 140kW performance.
Jaguar’s new 2,0-litre turbocharged petrol engine provides an equally thrilling performance experience courtesy of 177kW of refined power. It accelerates to 100km/h in under eight seconds – but don’t take Jaguar’s word for it: try it for yourself through AVIS.
“The Jaguar XF appeals to the youngest, most dynamic Jaguar customer yet,” continues Flynn. “We now have the opportunity to showcase this beautiful car to more people who might not otherwise have considered a Jaguar. For us, the XF embodies the bold design, justifiable luxury, and efficient performance characteristic of all our cars.”
Jaguar’s XF is available through AVIS Luxury Cars in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban, Bloemfontein and Port Elizabeth. F-TYPEs are available in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
