Where each one leads
Jaguar XF
- On Canada's official test the most frugal 2024 Jaguar XF uses 9.1 l/100 km, the 2024 Maserati Ghibli 11.6.
- New Jaguar XF cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 168 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 226 for the Maserati Ghibli in 2022.
- Measured by the cars' own fuel meters, the petrol Jaguar XF uses 9.8 l/100 km on the road, the Maserati Ghibli 14.1.
Maserati Ghibli
- Fewer Maserati Ghibli cars in the Netherlands carry an illogical odometer record (5.2% against 6.0%).
Too close to call: MOT pass rate against cars of the same age; new York safety inspections failed, against cars of the same year.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
