BETTER residual values (RVs), lower insurance and kinder BIK ratings of any competitors executive saloon are being claimed by Jaguar for the all-new XF to target company car user-choosers.
Industry valuation company Kwik Car predicts the all-new XF will hold on to 41% of its value over three years and 60,000 miles. That’s 4% up on the Mercedes E-Class and 6% better than Audi A6 and BMW 5 Series.
What’s more, the new XF will offer insurance ratings starting from Group 25E, some five groups better than the equivalent BMW 5 Series, seven better than the Audi A6 and eight better than the Mercedes E-Class.
At the same time the BIK company car tax band rating for the Jaguar XF 2.0d 163PS Prestige manual is just 18% compared to its nearest rivals the Audi A6 2.0TDI ultra 190PS SE manual and the BMW 2.0d 190PS SE manual both at 20%.
The Jaguar XF cost of ownership proposition will be further strengthened by a range of competitive service plans, says Jaguar. Business car managers opting for the 2.0-litre diesel Ingenium engine, in either 163PS or 180PS versions, will be able to choose between a Standard Mileage and High Mileage package.
