After some teasers earlier this month, Jaguar Land Rover debuted its all-new, China exclusive Jaguar XF Long wheelbase (XFL) at the Beijing Auto Show.

With the coming of the third China-made and the first domestically manufactured model, Jaguar Land Rover is clearly showing its strong commitment to China, as it continues to create brand new lines of products.

"China continues to be an important market for Jaguar Land Rover and we are delighted to introduce our first locally-built Jaguar here at the Beijing Auto Show," said JLR CEO Ralf Speth.

In comparison to the standard model, the latest XFL is 5.5 inches longer. Its rear legroom is 6.1 inches more spacious, while its back seats come at an extra 4.5 inches knee room.

Although no major design revamp was made, its wheelbase is stretched and its rear doors are now longer.

The China exclusive design is equipped with JLR's cutting edge 10.2-inch InControl Touch Pro infotainment system, according to World Car Fans. Music will surely get better as the system has a 17-speaker, 825-watt Meridian Surround Sound System. Aside from a number of buttons to press, it has 2x HDMI ports, 2x USB 3.0 ports and a 12 V power socket.

The XFL will surely offer not only luxury but also comfort as the heated rear and cooled rear seats have a four-way lumber adjustment and a massaging function. Added to that, passengers are also spoiled with folding tables, window blinds, and air-cleaning ionization system, the World Car Fans reported.

It is designed with an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission, with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine running at 197 HP and 236 HP.

"At Jaguar Land Rover, we put our customers first and are committed to delivering experiences that they love for life. Designed exclusively for our discerning Chinese customers, the Jaguar XFL is bespoke to this market," Speth said.
