My understanding is that the XF21 changes were cosmetic. The major panels remain the same which would imply the physical space of the interior is unchanged. The layout/design of the interior is totally revamped but it fills the same space. If the XF20 is available with the Supercharged V6, I'd consider it if the price was right due to the power. We're totally happy with our '21 R-Dynamic, but outside of the engines, the differences are purely subjective.

Just a thought on performance of the '21: Mine is the '21 XF R-Dynamic 300. 296HP. 20" wheels w/ P7's.
After having it for a while I can say the 0-60 is good, but not great. 5.6 seconds is on a par with the BMW 530. What I can't say enough about is how this thing handles and how perfectly they've tuned the torque when coming out of a curve. With the AWD it feels like an RWD that absolutely won't let go of the road --which lets you pop out of curves like I imagine it feels at Nürburgring. I've had Audi, BMW, AMG and I love driving this car more than any of them. Most of the others would beat me in a street-drag, but this car feels like I'd kill them on a track. It is soooo flat in the curves and sooo controlled coming out of them...
If you have any question if you're looking at competitors, don't buy anything until your test drive includes some rips through back roads. I'd really like to hear others' opinions!

So I just pulled the trigger on a new 2021 XF-R dynamic, Yulong white with ebony interior. Cold Climate Pack, and black exterior styling package. There are only 4 of these within a 150 miles so p, with your help, I think I did all right. Got 8% off MSRP, so $49995. Should have her here by weeks end. Try and post some pics then. Thanks for the help and am looking forward to hanging here from time to time.

MY21 P300 Voice Recognition
Current MY21 P300 owners: Does the Pivi Pro Infotainment system support Voice Recognition ? ie: Can you set a Navigation destination verbally ? verbally enter a phone number and place a call, set a cabin temperature , etc ? Is there more information online that may describe its capabilities ? Thanks.
