2010 Jaguar XFR achieves top speed of 225 mph at Bonneville Salt Flats

2010 Jaguar XFR BonnevilleThe latest Jaguar XFR, which was created to compete with the Bmw M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and the Audi RS6, claims that there is performance behind its appearance. From a speed test at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, the XFR clocked in at a top speed of 225.675 mph (363.188km/h) making it the fastest Jaguar since the XJ220 supercar hit the 217.1mph (349km/h) mark back in 1992 making it the fastest car at the time.

The top speed was achieved through a remapping of the ECU, revised air intake and exhaust system and modified supercharger settings with minor aerodynamic and safety enhancements just to conform to a Bonneville run. The engine was virtually untouched and the six-speed auto transmission was standard to the model, as well as gear rations. The standard Jaguar XFR has a top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h) which is electronically restricted. Photo gallery after the jump!

Detroit Preview: 2010 Jaguar XFR

Friday, January 9th, 2009

2010 Jaguar XFRFinally, the Jaguar XFR is here! The new vehicle from the British manufacturer has been designed especially to compete with cars such as Audi RS6, Bmw M5 or the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG. Ok now, enough with the preview, let’s get in the car.

Under the hood the vehicle comes with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 engine capable to deliver an impressive 510 hp and 625 Nm or 460 lb.ft of torque. With this amount of power the vehicle hits 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds ( 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds ), while the top speed is limited to 155 mph or 250 km/h. Of course, with these numbers the car has to be able to stop in time and due to the larger ventilated disc brakes found under the 20 inch Nevis alloy wheels the car is safer than ever. More photos and details after the jump!
