You sit low down, the driving position is spot on, you have a great view of the road ahead, and the pedals are very nicely placed giving you an element of confidence whilst driving.<\/p>\n<p>The XFR-S boasts a 5.0-litre supercharged V8, which produces 550 PS and 680 Nm torque. With this much performance, it&#8217;s no wonder it can hit 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds. However, it still seems to feel much more powerful than it actually is, infact, this car is absolutely brutal in its performance delivery.<\/p>\n<p>All of this brute force is connected to an 8-speed transmission derived from the F-Type, giving the XFR-S seamless and quick shifts.<\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jhajif-fda5100ff12eb62a2b40a92b8c7ca89d\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-jhajif-fda5100ff12eb62a2b40a92b8c7ca89d{\npadding-bottom:5px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-jhajif-fda5100ff12eb62a2b40a92b8c7ca89d .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-jhajif-fda5100ff12eb62a2b40a92b8c7ca89d .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-jhajif-fda5100ff12eb62a2b40a92b8c7ca89d av-special-heading-h2  avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_progress  el_before_av_progress '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag'  itemprop=\"headline\"  >HANDLING<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-sub-av-h5z547-ee2e2335072bb72c6043dfa541443048\">\n#top .avia-progress-bar-container .avia-progress-bar.av-l0as3b-2e8f1e98eb187f5e4f5902bb58d999c8 .bar{\nwidth:90%;\nbackground-image: linear-gradient( -45deg, #D7D7D7 25%, #F9F9F9 25%, #F9F9F9 50%, #D7D7D7 50%, #D7D7D7 75%, #F9F9F9 75%, #F9F9F9 );\nbackground-image: linear-gradient( -45deg, #D7D7D7 25%, #F9F9F9 25%, #F9F9F9 50%, #D7D7D7 50%, #D7D7D7 75%, #F9F9F9 75%, #F9F9F9 );\nbackground-color:#D7D7D7;\n}\n#top .avia-progress-bar-container .avia-progress-bar.av-fknyfb-0647f338f37209ffaf81c118c36ac854 .bar{\nwidth:90%;\nbackground-image: linear-gradient( -45deg, #D7D7D7 25%, #F9F9F9 25%, #F9F9F9 50%, #D7D7D7 50%, #D7D7D7 75%, #F9F9F9 75%, #F9F9F9 );\nbackground-image: linear-gradient( -45deg, #D7D7D7 25%, #F9F9F9 25%, #F9F9F9 50%, #D7D7D7 50%, #D7D7D7 75%, #F9F9F9 75%, #F9F9F9 );\nbackground-color:#D7D7D7;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-progress-bar-container av-h5z547-ee2e2335072bb72c6043dfa541443048 av-striped-bar av-animated-bar avia_animate_when_almost_visible  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_heading  el_before_av_heading '><div class='avia-progress-bar av-fknyfb-0647f338f37209ffaf81c118c36ac854 icon-bar-no silver-bar icon-bar-no'><div class=\"progressbar-title-wrap\"><div class='progressbar-icon'><span class='progressbar-char' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'><\/span><\/div><div class='progressbar-title'>8\/10<\/div><\/div><div class=\"progress\"><div class=\"bar-outer\"><div class='bar' data-progress='90'><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p>We are very much impressed with the XFR-S, it handles very well, in-fact, probably better than we expected.
