A thrilling blend of style, performance, and luxury

Whether it’s a leisurely drive on country roads with the top down or zipping through the tight corners of a winding road, the 2014 Jaguar F-Type is right at home. That’s because the two engine options are powerful and responsive, while the eight-speed automatic transmission shifts quickly for satisfying acceleration. Plus, the interior is welcoming, wrapped in high-end materials and soft-touch surfaces. Additionally, the front seats are wide and supportive but stay comfortable on long drives. Overall, the 2014 Jaguar F-Type delivers an exciting driving experience that gives a nod to its heritage.

5 reasons to buy the 2014 Jaguar F-Type

1. Comfortable seating 

Sit back and relax in the soft and plush cushioning of the 2014 Jaguar F-Type. That’s because the seats are wide and supportive, holding you tight while you dart around corners. But the seat cushioning doesn’t feel stiff or uncomfortable after prolonged use, making long trips enjoyable. Lastly, soft leather surfaces and available ventilated seating elevate the interior experience. 

2. Lots of standard equipment 

While several trims and packages let you find the features you want in the 2014 Jaguar F-Type, the base-level trim is still well-equipped. For example, enjoy features like rain-sensing wipers, headlight washers, Bluetooth® connectivity, automatic climate control, and an eight-inch infotainment touchscreen. Plus, the base model also includes leather seating and suede interior accents. 

3. Exhilarating performance characteristics 

Unlock the full potential of the 2014 Jaguar F-Type when you get the V8 R Coupe, which upgrades the supercharger on the V8 engine to deliver maximum performance. Plus, the adaptive suspension automatically adjusts to road conditions, while the upgraded brakes stay strong after repeated use. The result is laser-sharp handling and responsiveness from the 2014 Jaguar F-Type, which takes just 4.1 seconds to go from zero to 60 mph (when new). 

4. Two powerful engine options 

A powerful duo of engine options are under the hood of the 2014 Jaguar F-Type, starting with a 340-hp 3.0 L supercharged V6 engine. But if you pick the F-Type S coupe or convertible, a larger supercharger boosts the 3.0 L V6 to 380 horsepower. Finally, a supercharged 5.0 L V8 engine delivers 495 horsepower (V8 S Convertible) or 550 horsepower (V8 S Coupe). 

5. Convertible and Coupe body styles 

Like some classic road cars that inspire the 2014 Jaguar F-Type’s styling, you can choose from an attractive coupe or convertible body style. If you want to let in more sun, the convertible soft top lowers itself in just 12 seconds when driving at speeds less than 30 mph. While you’ll get slightly better performance and handling from the stiffened coupe, either body style of the 2014 Jaguar F-Pace is eye-catching and fun to drive.
