Jaguar launches Black Pack for XF

Jaguar has introduced a dramatic new appearance pack for the Jaguar XF giving it an even stronger visual impact. The new Black Pack follows closely in the tracks of a similar Speed Pack option on the XK which was launched earlier in 2010. Featuring dark-grey 20-inch Draco alloy wheels with diamond turned rims, a gloss black grille and gloss black window surrounds, the XF Black Pack is available on XF Diesel S, the 5.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol and XFR models, with prices starting at £950.

Since the Black Pack and Speed Pack were launched on the XKR sports car at the Geneva Motor Show, almost half of XKR coupe buyers have selected one or both options - double Jaguar's original estimate - and the firm expect the Black Pack will generate just as much excitement amongst XF customers.

To provide added exclusivity and to maximise the visual impact, XF Black Pack vehicles can only be specified with a special colour palette chosen by Jaguar designers, including Polaris White, Spectrum Blue, Ultimate Black, Stratus Grey, Lunar Grey and Liquid Silver, plus Kyanite Blue and Salsa Red which are colours unique to the XFR.

For an even more dramatic effect, the Black Pack can be combined with the XF Aerodynamic Pack which was launched on XF Diesel S earlier in 2010. This pack includes a re-profiled front bumper, striking black mesh inserts for the grille and lower air intakes and the muscular side sills from the XFR.
