Talk from our spy photographers about potential new engines for the range sparks curiosity, though with the current car already packing the updated 5.0-liter V-8 for the U.S., we suspect the new engines will be limited to Europe, where gasoline and diesel V-6s are available.
Look for the facelifted 2012 Jaguar XF to debut towards the end of the year.
