It may not be available in the UAE until mid-2014, but when it arrives, the 2014 Jaguar F-Type Coupe is sure to be an eye-catcher and a big seller. Knowing how much they love fast cars, the residents of Dubai are sure to rush to the dealerships for this one!
The 2014 Jaguar F-Type Coupe boasts a 3.0-liter, V6-cylinder engine accompanied by an 8-speed sport-shifting automatic transmission. This powerful combination results in a 340 horsepower vehicle that still gets has impressive fuel economy (average in the mid-20s). Although there are some luxury-level perks that are not included in the base model, such as navigation and heated seats, this Jaguar is not lacking in style by any means. You do have the option when designing your car to add these features, in addition to a heated leather steering wheel, and interior lights in different colors! This little innovative extra is definitely something you don’t see every day.
Starting in the $65,000 range, the F-Type Coupe will definitely be a good match for its other top-range luxury competitors, especially with the optional convertible top. One of the more expensive models in this R Performance Line is the F-Type R, offering a much larger 5.0-liter V8 engine, that is supercharged and puts out about 550 horsepower. When you talk about user-designed adjustments, this model is top of the line. Even though the suspension on this car features adaptive dynamics that constantly adjust automatically based on the car’s movements, drivers have an option to change to Dynamic Mode, and adjust the suspension, steering, shift schedule and throttle response manually. In addition to the tight suspension, an electronic active differential and torque vectoring system makes the car handle that much better.
Edmunds.com reviews the convertible roadster option of this model: “The first roadster from Jaguar in 40 years, the 2014 F-Type was worth the wait. This convertible is a thrilling blend of style, performance and luxury, and no matter what your priorities are, you’re sure to lust after it.” Now the wording of this phrase might not be the most appropriate for the UAE market, but it definitely gives the idea of just how attractive and appealing this model is up close and personal.
So, although it was originally introduced at the Los Angeles Auto Show in 2013, the 2014 Jaguar F-Type Coupe is set to hit the market in the UAE in early-to-mid 2014.
