A facelift and a final fling A final facelift before the industry commits to a fully EV future. As the Indian-owned, Midlands-based manufacturer follows the rest of the industry down the road of electrification for most of its range, this big beast could be seen as one of the last of a diminishing breed, swallowing jungle juice without any assistance from battery power. Jaguar is a case in point with the latest version of their big-booted XF Sportbrake. Just recently I’ve seen a handful of manufacturers referring to their estate models as shooting brakes, presumably to distinguish them from the rest of the pack and give them a whiff of exclusivity. This big beast could be seen as one of the last of a diminishing breed I doubt if yellow swinging-arm trafficators or foot-operated main beam dip switches will ever return but I’m delighted to see that one term from the past is enjoying a revival. The last of a diminishing breed, the XF Sportbrake. I’m holding onto my double-breasted pin-stripe suit, flared jeans and Afghan coat from the Seventies for just that reason, but I suspect the moths may take their toll before I dig them out of the wardrobe again. They say that if you wait long enough, everything comes back into fashion. Speech Bubble Icon A icon displaying a speech bubble WhatsApp An icon of the WhatsApp logo.
