All these engines are equipped with 8-speed 'Quick-shift' automatic transmission. But in India only two models are available: V6 S and V8 S.

It has double wishbone front and rear suspension with Adaptive Dampers to adjust damping of the suspension and controls vertical body movement and roll and pitch rates by monitoring suspension movement 100 times a second and steering input 500 times a second.
Jaguar F-Type has a length of 4470mm, width of 1923mm and height of 1308mm as its dimensions and has 2622 mm of wheelbase. It has a front track of 1585mm and rear track of 1628mm.
