xf performance figures

[alfa12177]

hi been  on website that gives performance figures .xf 3.0 diesel s has 0-100 time of 19.4 seconds surely that cant be right ?

That seems to be the case but I absolutely don't believe it. Give me a few days, I'll let you know.

Feels a lot less than that to me  :) Not measured it though as I never get above 70 before the limiter kicks in

Hi Colin,

 

I have a similar speed limiter.

 

There are some occasions however when not there, however!

 

I do think that 19.4 seconds for  0 - 100 mph does seem a touch slow.  My s type with the 2.7 diesel still seems to want to go quicker when you have reached 70 mph and you have the S button on.  8.1 seconds 0 - 62 mph and you still have plenty or torque.  I think there is a misprint and 19.4 should read 14.9 seconds.

That would seem more like it.
