Jaguar F-Type V8S Costs More Than XKR-S In India

Jaguar has launched the F-Type in India, priced at an insane Rs. 1.37 crore for the V6 S and Rs. 1.61 crore for the V8 S (no base V6 on offer).  Jaguar has almost confused Indians with the F-Type's pricing as the 2-seater sportscar costs more than the XK in the country. To put it into perspective, check out the Indian pricing of the F-Type and its competitors in US Dollar (converted as per today's exchange rate 1$ = Rs. 59.80/-). The prices are in ascending order and on-road Mumbai, inclusive of registration and insurance charges.
