More about Jaguar XF Towbars
The new range of Jaguar XF also comes with a new range of engines. Some include the Hybrid model, which could influence the towbar type and affect the towing capacity. This is dependent on your vehicle, and we highly recommend you view your VIN plate to check the weights you can tow.
The XF has Jaguar performance at the heart of its DNA, so its lightweight and robust bodyshell will deliver an agile drive. The mild-hybrid technology allows the vehicle to charge during deceleration and braking due to its regenerative system for more efficient journeys.
When towing and on your journeys exploring the world, you can use the smart and intuitive technology the XF has been equipped with; the new Pivi Pro. Relax into your seats, with a generous amount of legroom, seating positions and new optional massage; what more could you want.
Torque Vectoring by Braking provides controlled independent braking to maximise capability through even the tightest corners. It reduces understeer and delivers sports car-like agility, perfect for towing a larger, heavier caravan. Jaguar also provides an optional pack featuring red brake callipers and 355mm front and 325mm rear brakes.
Optional state-of-the-art technology provides an unobstructed view through the rear of your Jaguar XF Saloon8. A camera located in the antenna pod feeds a live video to your rear-view mirror, ensuring constant visibility regardless of what’s behind you.
What’s is the Jaguar XF Towing Capacity?
The towing capacity of the XF will vary from vehicle to vehicle, and you must check your towing capacity stated on your VIN plate for more information. On a standard Jaguar XF, the towing capacity is approx. between 1800kg and 2000kg with a nose weight of approx. 125kg dependant on the Towbar fitted. The engineer will inform you of these details at the time of fitment. Alternatively, our customer service team can provide this information for you.
Which Towbar is best for my Jaguar XF?
We can fit three types of towbars on the Jaguar XF, both Saloon and Sport Brake. Fixed Flange, Fixed Swan Neck and Detachable Swan Neck Towbars. If your XF has parking sensors, we recommend you have the detachable swan neck towbar fitted to your car as we can not guarantee the fixed towbars will not set parking sensors off. Sometimes there is an option of turning your parking sensors off inside your vehicle; however, you will need to look at your manual to determine whether this function is available.
Will my Jaguar XF need a bumper cut?
Sometimes we can get away from cutting the bumper for a more aesthetically pleasing view of your vehicle; however, unfortunately, on the Jaguar XF, there is a non-visible bumper cut on the underside of the vehicle. When having a detachable swan neck fitted, you shouldn’t see the required bumper cut even without the towbar neck attached.
