2016 Jaguar XF test mule spied with longer wheelbase near the Arctic Circle

The next generation of the Jaguar XF has been caught on camera recently near the Arctic Circle along with a longer wheelbase.

Last time the mule of the second-gen XF was seen in November last year testing around the tracks of Nürburgring Nordschleife and now a similar test car has been spied undergoing testing near the Arctic Circle. Since Jaguar is planning an entry-level XS sedan, it would not be surprising if the new XF grows in size a little bit to better fit between the XS and the flagship XJ which is bound to get a facelift later this year.

According to the spy photographers who took the images, the test mule that can be seen has a stretched wheelbase since the rear doors appear to be longer than they are on the current model. Due most likely in 2015 as a 2016MY, the new Jaguar XF will supposedly get newly developed engines which should come with higher outputs along with reduced fuel consumption and CO2 figures.

The details are limited as of now but we can expect more details to be out in the coming months.
