TCC’s Bottom Line

Especially in wagon form, the 2020 Jaguar XF is an appealing luxury car for those of us not totally sold on SUVs.

The 2021 Lexus ES grabs some of the LS’ spotlight with its sleek shape and its sky-high hybrid economy.

TCC Likes

Design has aged gracefully
Strong V-6 power
Decent value and often discounted

Lithe and lean
F Sport’s sharp responses
Exceptional hybrid economy

TCC Dislikes

No more diesel
Dated infotainment
A little dark inside

AWD, hybrid’s lean acceleration
Kludgy infotainment
Big grille...big grille
