In-gear acceleration is sharp. The normally aspirated XK takes 2.5secs to get from 50mph to 70mph.

Which is sharper Jaguar XFR or XKR?
Even setting off from the hotel car park at the launch, the XKR’s sharper character is immediately evident. With just a light prod of the throttle that would have seen the XFR step briskly but unremarkably into Seville’s morning throng, the XKR leaps forward with genuine brio and a small chirrup from the tyres.
