The XF in Bond
If you are a Bond fan - good! If you are both a Jaguar and a Bond fan - then it is even better.
The Jaguar XF play and demonstrate its exceptional performance along side the main characters of the movie No Time To Die which opened in South African movie circuit on October 1.
Filmed in Matera, southern Italy, two XF saloons weave through the narrow, twisting city streets, driving across piazzas and down cobbled steps in pursuit of James Bond.
Both XFs feature Jaguar’s all-wheel drive system with Intelligent Driveline Dynamics, which delivered incredible levels of traction on the low-grip surfaces as No Time To Die’s henchmen demonstrate that no street is too small and no corner too tight.
The saloon’s lightweight aluminium-intensive architecture and advanced suspension design enable exceptional handling and agility together outstanding ride, comfort and refinement.
Chris Corbould, No Time To Die’s special effects and action vehicle supervisor, said, “The Jaguar XF was an exciting choice for this high-intensity car sequence. We always look to push the boundaries to extreme limits in our stunts, and this extends to the capabilities of the vehicles too. There is no compromise with this particular scene. There were only inches to spare in the narrow alleyways and with no margin for error, the XF shows its performance and driving dynamics.”
Anna Gallagher, Jaguar brand director, said, “The Jaguar XF is a car designed to tackle any journey with an unrivalled balance of luxury, comfort and refinement.
“Whether it’s a high-speed pursuit through twisting streets and piazzas of southern Italy, where the car filmed its No Time To Die chase sequences, or the bustling streets of London – the XF really is a car for every occasion.”
No Time To Die is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga and stars Daniel Craig, who returns for the fifth and final time as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007.
