Audi and Jaguar are two of the most iconic brands in the automobile industry, and car buyers are often caught in a dilemma whether to choose the 2018 Jaguar F-Type or the 2018 Porsche 911. Let us go through this comparison to see which one is a better buy.
Design & Style
Even an astute car buyer would be impressed with the exterior design and style of both the models, but it is important to take a look inside. The 2018 Jaguar F-Type is a two-seater with plenty of headroom, but taller passengers will find it difficult to fit their legs. Due to the lack of adequate support, the vehicle is not suited for long distance driving. The cabin is not as good as some German luxury cars, but it is still attractive enough to consider.
On the other hand, the Porsche 911 is a 4-seater, with extra cargo space at the back. The standard sports seats are extremely supportive and there is plenty of headroom and legroom for passengers and drivers. The interior styling is way ahead of its class with beautifully detailed trim pieces giving it an attractive appeal.
Technology & Safety
For the 2018 Jaguar F-Type, it comes standard with a USB port, satellite radio, a 12-speaker Meridian audio system, and an 8-inch touchscreen. The infotainment system is quite ordinary with the only notable feature being the 14-speaker Meridian audio system. It has a counterintuitive interface, and you don’t even have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as a smartphone connectivity option.
The 2018 Porsche 911 is an exceptional choice in this regard, with a bundle of features including the Porsche Communication Management infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, USB port, voice recognition, navigation, and smartphone integration. Active safety features include park lane assist and a rearview camera.
Performance
Performance is a true measure of a vehicle’s potential. The 2018 Jaguar F-Type comes with a 296 HP turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine that can crank up to 295 lb-ft of torque. It provides sufficient power for driving around. The 911 is a much better choice with its base 6-cylinder turbocharged engine that has all the power you need for daily driving.
The Bottom Line
Given the above comparison, it is quite clear that the 2018 Porsche 911 is a clear winner in all aspects, be it technology, design or performance. The Jaguar F-type may have its own set of attributes, but Porsche 911 has an upper hand with a classy interior, state-of-the-art technology, and unrivaled fuel efficiency both in the city and on the highways.
