2022 Jaguar F-Type coupe

Pros: Striking styling; available as rear- and all-wheel-drive models; truly upscale character

Cons: Stingy trunk space; weighs a bit more than some competitors; adding optional equipment pumps up the already steep base prices

CG Says: After receiving a mild refresh for 2021, the Jaguar F-Type lineup is pared down for 2022, as both the 4-cylinder and V6 engine are discontinued. The new base engine is a supercharged V8 that delivers 444 horsepower and can be found in a new trim level named P450. The only other engine available is the R trim level’s supercharged 575-HP 5.0-liter V8. The F-Type’s styling was updated last year with new slim LED headlights and subtly changed sheetmetal outside, along with a high-definition virtual instrument cluster in the cabin. The suspension was also revised. The F-Type is a front-engine, rear- or all-wheel-drive 2-passenger coupe and convertible. Jaguar claims the high-performance R has a top speed of 186 mph and is capable of accelerating 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds. Both engines are paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The P450 RWD model comes standard with six-way power-adjustable seats. The P450 R-Dynamic AWD model adds 12-way power-adjustable seats with memory function, electrically adjustable steering wheel with memory function, and unique trim touches. Available features include autonomous braking, lane-keep assist, blind-spot alert, driver attention monitor, rear-traffic monitor, ceramic brakes, heated/cooled seats, and parallel-parking assist. The F-Type is a true sports car that revives the spirit of the classic Jaguar coupes and roadsters of the 1960s. The R-Dynamic is probably the best value, with most of the performance of the R and similar handling. Though the loss of 4-cylinder and V6 models leaves the F-Type shoppers with fewer options, the new P450 V8 models are competitively priced below the discontinued V6 models. The F-Type remains a compelling alternative to the rival BMW, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche models.
