Price

The Jaguar F-Type facelift retails for RM 688,800. So, there’s no change/increment in this area. Thank god.

Engine

Powering the F-Type facelift is a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged Ingenium power plant generating maximum power of 300 PS along with a peak torque of 400 Nm. The drive is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.

Exterior Features

We see a lot of enhancements on the refreshed F-Type, especially on the outside. At the front, the car gets slimmer LED headlights with three-blade LED daytime running lights that surely give the coupe a strong stance.

The side profile of the car is no less than 18-inch Style 1036 10-spoke wheels finished in Gloss Sparkle Silver. The rear end now gets a Switchable Active Exhaust system with a rectangular unit.
So, no more dual exhaust tips for the Jaguar.

Further, improving the coupe’s look is the Black Exterior Package wherein the Jaguar badge, model tag, front grille surrounds, window surrounds, front lip, and fender trims are painted in black. The automaker is offering some optional bits for customers to choose from, for instance, a 20-inch Style 6003 split-spoke wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tyres (optional)
