Half of every XF on the road is below this. Power divided by mass in running order — the one figure that compares across model and era.
There are 2,233 of them on Dutch roads, built between 2008 and 2023, weighing anywhere from 1,626 to 2,090 kg. They share a name and not much else. Here is the spread.
Half of every XF on the road is below this. Power divided by mass in running order — the one figure that compares across model and era.
A typical XF has more power per tonne than 94% of the 8,248,168 combustion cars in the Netherlands.
For the median version, from power, mass and body shape. A prediction, not a measurement.
The slowest in this sample makes 61.4 kW per tonne and the quickest 193.4 — a factor of 3.1 between two cars wearing the same badge. Any single number for a XF is an average over that.

Asking the server…
Everything above describes 2,233 cars sharing a name, spanning 2008 to 2023 and 1,626–2,090 kg. Your XF has one engine, one mass and one registration. Put the plate in and the answer is about that car rather than about the name on it.
