Will the Jaguar XF be a future classic?

Bearing in mind Jaguar's recent announcements about stopping production of all internal combustion-engined cars by 2025, do you think the facelifted XF has a chance of becoming a future classic?

Eventually. It'll take a long time (a 30-year-old Jaguar XJ40 is only just becoming accepted as a classic) and you'll have to consider running costs as the car gets older. It's quite a complicated car which could be difficult to maintain (and even fuel) when we're all driving around in electric cars. We wouldn't advise letting its future classic status influence your buying decision.
