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.
