What’s it like to drive?
Reviewer's opinion
The combination results in a car with genuine agility and a generally neutral handling balance, eventually leading to gentle, controllable oversteer at the limit of adhesion. The overall experience is very engaging: because there's less power to work with, the driver has to concentrate to maintain momentum, and thus has to work with the car to extract high point-to-point speeds.

Interior
What is the Jaguar F-Type like inside?
Draped in supple leather and Alcantara and trimmed with piano black and satin chrome, the F-Type is a fantastic place to spend time. The interior can be cramped for those of a larger frame and storage is at a premium but experience far outweighs the smaller cabin space.
Style
Built with a closeting driving position, controls fall close to hand with all touch surfaces being high quality and well bolted together. Featuring the latest safety and technology from Jaguar, the F-Type is an assault on the senses and delivers an exciting driving experience.
