Without sharing any spoilers, Jaguar tells us that the XF will be part of a thrilling chase sequence. The filming for this sequence took place in Matera in the south of Italy, with two XF saloons weaving through the narrow, twisting city streets, driving across piazzas and down cobbled steps in pursuit of the agent. It's also a part of a few scenes shot in London.

Chris Corbould, No Time To Die's special effects and action vehicle supervisor, said, "The Jaguar XF was an exciting choice for this high-intensity car sequence. We always look to push the boundaries to extreme limits in our stunts, and this extends to the capabilities of the vehicles too. There is no compromise with this particular scene. There were only inches to spare in the narrow alleyways and no margin for error, the XF shows its performance and driving dynamics."
