This car has an automatic drive so the driver does not

        select any of the gears, this is done automatically. The
        Jaguar XF has six forward gears and it is the engine

        management  system  that  selects  which  gear  is  in

        engaged.



















        The Jaguar XF shown in the photo has a 3 Litre engine

        and  the  acceleration  is  very  good.  Which  means  it

        goes woof when you press the accelerator down to
        the floor boards. It is a remarkably smooth car when

        travelling at 120 kilometres per hour.


        Safety is a very important consideration in the design
        of this car as it contains several air bags which inflate

        in the event of a collision to protect the driver and
        passengers from serious injury.


                          This concludes Lesson 11.
