Jaguar XFR-S

Jaguar has released this first teaser picture of the Jaguar XFR-S, set to be the most powerful and focused version of the firm's BMW 5 Series rival.

Full details and images will be released at the Los Angeles Motor Show, but it's more than likely that the XFR-S will be powered by the same supercharged 5.0-litre engine found in the XKR-S. That would mean 542bhp and a 0-62mph time of around 4.5 seconds.

Expect to see a firmer suspension set-up for improved handling and an upgraded interior, featuring bespoke sports seats, too.

This early picture clearly shows its aggressive carbon-fibre bumper, complete with gaping air intakes but recent spy shots reveal the XFR-S gets a large fixed rear spoiler, too, just like the XKR-S.

Expect the super-saloon to hit UK showrooms in early 2013, priced at around 75,000.
