"Driving the Jaguar XF S/C is like spending time in your favorite chair," writes managing editor Rusty Kurtz. "It just glides down the road with little fuss."

Speaking of fuss, Kurtz found the Jag's cabin mostly devoid of it. "The controls are easy to operate once you're used to their location. The door-lock button is in the center of the dashboard, under the navigation screen, not on the door where it should be. The air vents open when the car is started or when the air-conditioning is turned on. It's fun to watch, but what's the point? My only real complaint about the this Jaguar is that the emergency brake lever on the center console became very hot during my commute to the office. I'm not sure if that is unique to this vehicle or if it's a design glitch that needs to be looked at."
