Jaguar to offer just 100 XFR-S super sedans in U.S. - Latest Cars News

When it hits the market, the XFR-S will go head-to-head with vehicles like the BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG.

Long the subject of internet rumors, Jaguar has confirmed that the XFR-S will be unveiled at the LA auto show at the end of the month. Jaguar previously stated that it was planning a world debut for LA, but didn't release any further details.

Like the XKR-S, the X FR-S will be powered by a 550 horsepower, 502 lb-ft of torque version of Jaguar's supercharged 5.0L V8. The regular XFR makes use of Jaguar's 510 horsepower, 470 lb-ft of torque supercharged V8 engine.

Those power improvements should put the XFR-S on even ground with the M5 and E63. BMW's latest M5 boasts 560 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque while Merc's E63 AMG model develops 518 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque.

No pricing information has been leaked, but look for the XFR-S to command a premium over the $83, 200 XFR.
