| Gearbox: | Automatic | Automatic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 2.0 Diesel | 2.0 Petrol | |
| Diesel (Jaguar XF) engines typically outperform gasoline engines in terms of fuel efficiency and low-end torque. This makes them more economical and better suited for towing or long-distance travel. However, gasoline (Lexus GS) engines mostly are lighter, quieter, and offer better acceleration and responsiveness, especially in smaller vehicles.

Drive type | |||
| Wheel drive type: | All wheel drive (AWD, 4x4) | Rear wheel drive (RWD) | |
| Ground clearance: | 116 mm (4.6 inches) | 130 mm (5.1 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Lexus GS can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Lexus GS version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. | |||
Engines | |||
| Average engine lifespan: | 350'000 km | 280'000 km | |
| Engine resource depends largely on regular maintenance and the quality of the oils and fuels used, but under equal conditions the average life of a Jaguar XF engine could be longer. | |||
| Engine production duration: | 11 years | 12 years | |
| Engine spread: | Installed on at least 6 other car models, including Land Rover Discovery Sport, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, Jaguar XE | Installed on at least 3 other car models, including Lexus IS, Lexus RX, Lexus NX | |
| In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. Jaguar XF might be a better choice in this respect. | |||
