Crane collapse MAGIC TRICKS investigation continues, public advised to avoid area CYNTHIA REASON creason@insidetoronto.com A Ministry of Labour investigation into a toppled construction crane that left nearly 500 north Etobicoke residents without power Monday has continued after crews worked to safely right the equipment yesterday. The crane, which was being used in the redevelopment of Kipling Acres – a city-owned and operated long-term care home at 2233 Kipling Ave. – collapsed at around 1:45 p.m. Monday and brought down with it an estimated six to seven hydro poles, rendering hundreds of surrounding Toronto Hydro clients powerless. Ministry of Labour spokesperson Matt Blajer told The Guardian on Tuesday that the ministry had both an engineer and an inspector on the site, but their investigation was delayed by the upturned crane. “We can’t do anything until the crane is righted. They have to come up with a procedure on how they’re going to do that and it’s going to be quite complex, and then we have to approve it so that nobody gets hurt,” he said. “Any information we need to do an investigation is in the cab of the crane – all of the documentation and whatnot – and the crane is currently seven metres up in the air, so until they right the thing we can’t really get started on the investigation.” >>>KIPLING, page 9

Teen revels in lacrosse gold at OSG TAMARA SHEPHARD tshephard@insidetoronto.com Winning box lacrosse gold last Sunday at the Ontario Summer Games was a dream nearly 10 years

3-3 with a minute left in the game. An unfortunate bounce off the Orangeville goalie’s heel with just three seconds left on the clock put Brampton back up for the win. >>>LACROSSE, page 10

Youth reminded to ‘dare to dream’
NEWS IN BRIEF
Family carnival Book about the Canadian Forces demystifies occupations, offers inspiration supports Trillium TAMARA SHEPHARD tshephard@insidetoronto.com
J
ean Miso’s penned her first children’s book, We’ll Never Forget, to help ensure Canadian veterans from the Second World War up to Afghanistan, including her grandfather, retain their rightful place not only in history, but in the hearts and minds of Canadians. Readers’ questions about the Canadian Forces (CF) and its occupations led the music teacher at Seneca School in central Etobicoke to spend the past year conducting research, searching photo archives, obtaining permissions from various government agencies and conducting inperson interviews with dozens of Canadian Forces’ personnel from coast-to-coast to write her latest volume. Her recently self-published, Their Duty, Our Pride, features the military biographies of soldiers working in countless trades in the Canadian Army, Air Force and Navy not necessarily serving with boots on the ground, in an airplane or on board a ship. By design, male and female soldiers of various ethnic backgrounds through every rank, up to and including Brig.-Gen. Fred Lewis, are chronicled. “The book profiles everyone from privates to generals throughout the Forces from a diversity of backgrounds, both men and women,” the Etobicoke author and music composer said. “What’s key is that they all feel success at their level. Success does not depend on making it to general. Success is intrinsic.” Miso focused on casting the military “in the light of leadership” in her book, and as an inspiration to children in particular, and to Canadian society as a whole. “I saw them as exemplary role models for people who need them, such as children, students. The core values in the military are the same values we want to instill as parents and educators. I want youth to look at them as a source

Etobicoke music teacher Jean Miso presents a copy of her latest book, Their Duty, Our Pride, that highlights the inspiring stories of current soldiers in various trades in the three branches of the Canadian Forces to Gen. Walter Natynczyk, Chief of the Defence Staff of the Canadian Forces, who wrote the foreword to the book.
of inspiration.” Their Duty, Our Pride profiles an intelligence officer, infantry officer, Canadian Ranger, combat engineer, supply technician, chaplain, search and rescue technician, medic, pilot and logistics officer, among others. Search and rescue (SAR) technician Sgt. Audrey Bourgoin’s story stuck with Miso. The woman from Chicoutimi, Que. is only the second woman in Canada to become a SAR Tech since 1944. Bourgoin’s first hurdle was to learn English. She became bilingual. Trained as paramedics, mountain climbers, parachutists and scuba divers in all terrains and Canadian climates, Bourgoin must pass exams regularly to keep her demanding job. “Audrey shows such drive and determination,” Miso said. “She’s a real leader. She’s focused and driven to meet her goals and to do what it takes.” Bourgoin offered this inspira-
tion to young Canadians in Miso’s book: “It is all about what you want to do and what you think you can do. If you focus on your goals in life, you will achieve them.” Miso worked with reprographics’ artist Doug Shaw on the unique look of the hardcover book. The pair collaborated on the popular videogame Call of Duty-inspired illustrations expanded out from actual photographs, most of which Miso sourced from the website, Combat Camera. Some interview subjects, including Bourgoin, also provided Miso personal photographs. Miso and Shaw’s first image for the book is a scene referenced by nearly every CF personnel she interviews: soldiers carrying the Canadian flag-draped casket of a fallen colleague down the airfield to the waiting plane for the repatriation flight home. This week, Miso hand-delivered a copy of her book to “a
great man, a true leader” — Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Walter Natynczyk, in his Ottawa office where she had earlier met and interviewed him. Natynczyk wrote in his foreword to Miso’s book: “The Canadian Forces is one of the finest, most professional armed forces in the world. Wherever our men and women go, they make a contribution to their community, to Canada and to troubled regions around the world. Canadians have felt pride during our successes and they have grieved the losses. “As members of the Canadian Forces, we always strive to do our duty with integrity, loyalty and courage to bring honour to Canada.” “All gentle giants” is how Miso described Canada’s highest general, indeed all four generals she met this week. Miso composed the words and music to the song, Honour and Pride, to accompany the book. A CD featuring three versions of the song is attached to the book’s back cover. “Dare to dream with open eyes; imagine who you can be” is Miso’s favourite line of the song. “Youth have to be able to dare to dream it,” Miso said. “The message of the book is that you are somebody even at an entry-level position in the Canadian Forces. I think that’s a positive message. Canadian Forces train the person below them and train for the next level while performing the job. There is advancement for everybody; that opportunity is available to you if you want it. “Youth, especially, need to see there is success at every level. They need to internalize that, to know that success comes from within.” Miso has printed 5,800 copies of the self-published title. For more information or to buy a copy of Their Duty, Our Pride, visit www.jeanmiso.ca A portion of the proceeds from the sale of Miso’s latest book benefits the Military Family Resource Centre.

The Ex sets the stage for creating family traditions
T
he Canadian National Exhibition has been one of Toronto’s great summer traditions since 1879. Whether you are a newcomer to this city or a born-and-bred Torontonian, the Ex is one of those experiences that make living here special. Many residents hold memories of visits to the fair with family and friends as a key part of their summer. Perhaps they remember going on their first roller coaster, maybe it was the old wooden Flyer, seeing a big-name band play at The Grandstand, or eating a special food that only seemed to be available at the Ex. our view For those spending their first summer in Toronto, it’s a chance Beginning of to create family memories and traditions of their own. CNE marks the The CNE, which opened last Friday and continues until end of summer Labour Day, also marks the official countdown to the start of the new school year for youngsters across the city. It’s a bittersweet time as summer marches to its end, and that’s why the 18 days of the Ex mean so much to those who attend. Along with going to the Ex as a visitor, the fair is also a huge employer for local youngsters. The economic impact of the CNE to Toronto, though, goes beyond youth employment. According to the CNE, it had 1.31 million visitors last year, with many of them coming from out of town, spending their tourists dollars not only at the Ex but also other sites across the city. Along with economic benefits, the Ex is also a place for many young people to highlight skills ranging from dancing to accordion playing to baseball. And speaking of baseball, the Ex is home to one of the province’s most prestigious peewee tournaments. The 56th annual Lions-CNE Peewee Baseball Tournament is now underway at the ballpark located near the Dufferin Gate. Local teams competing in this year’s tournament are from East York, Scarborough, North York, North Toronto, Etobicoke, and a squad from the Toronto Playgrounds league. Other teams participating come mostly from the Greater Toronto Area, with squads this year also travelling in from Stratford and Niagara Falls. The champs of the first tournament back in 1956 were from the East Riverdale playground league, but it’s been 10 years since a Toronto-based team, the Agincourt A’s of Scarborough in 2002, took a title. The tourney continues until championship night on Aug. 30. For more on the tourney and the Ex, visit www. theex.com Toronto Community News is a division of Metroland Media Group Ltd.

To the editor: Re: ‘Better recycling starts at home,’ Editorial, Aug. 16. While I agree with the gist of the editorial that we must each do our part to sort our trash properly, I believe we need to take a step back further to the origin of our recyclables. While it may not be an issue for the City of Toronto on its own, all municipalities would benefit from requiring the manufacturers of goods to ensure their products and packaging is recyclable. This may entail an increase in packaging cost that may be passed onto consumers, but the ultimate savings would recover those costs. I am prepared to do my part in sorting, but I would hope it would be easier knowing all packaging and products were eventually recyclable. This would ensure the 100 per cent compliance you call for in your editorial. Marc Charbonneau
TTC should remember riders in new board
T
here’s been a lot of to-ing and fro-ing on the transit file this past year. But as the dust settles on the subwayversus-light-rail battle for the future of transit – the hiring and firing of chief general managers — the prospect of new taxes to pay for new subways, our attention slipped away from a more quotidian matter: the question of governance. It came up earlier this year as Toronto City Council voted to keep Karen Stintz as chair of the TTC and replace a commission of Mayor Rob Ford loyalists with members from council’s centre and left wings. That shift — a response to the mayor’s role in the firing of transit boss Gary Webster — was half the plan. The other half was the introduction of an old idea: citizen members,
THE CITY
david nickle
appointed by council, would sit on the TTC along with elected officials. This was something Ford wanted to do holus-bolus, but council went a more moderate route, agreeing to create an 11-member commission with four citizen appointees and seven councillors. In September, Toronto’s Civic Appointment Committee will be making recommendations about who those four citizens should be. Toronto City Manager Joe Pennachetti has hired NAFOR Executive Recruiting to pre-select candidates, and the committee will be
looking at their report in September. Hard to say who will be on that list, but in a letter NAFOR has given a sense of the size of the pool – 485 applied – and the criteria they’re using. The most qualified candidates meet some high requirements: they will understand large project management, have experience working for large boards and large companies and will have strong management skills, honed in the public, private or non-profit sectors. If the commission has four of these sorts on board, the politicians will find themselves outclassed in terms of organizational management: municipal politicians, particularly the ones in Toronto, arrive with more populist CVs. They also may find themselves further isolated from the people who
matter most in the transit equation: namely, the riders who are navigating an increasingly crowded, expensive and frankly spotty service as they make their way about the city. For the past year and a half, those riders could be excused for feeling a little like pawns in a highlevel political chess game between council and the mayor. It would be wrong to say that riders have been utterly voiceless in this age of Twitter and Facebook; but it would go a long way to righting the imbalance, to have one or two citizen appointees whose major contribution to the debate was in their understanding of the rider’s experience. n David Nickle is The Guardian’s city hall reporter.

Crown appeals “manifestly unfit” sentence in scaffolding tragedy Ontario’s Office of the Attorney General has filed an appeal of what it calls the ‘manifestly unfit’ sentencing of a Torontobased construction company convicted of criminal negligence and ordered to pay just $200,000 in fines in the deaths of four workers in Etobicoke on Christmas Eve 2009. The Crown’s appeal, which was filed back on Aug. 7, alleges the trial judge erred in his sentencing assessment of Metron Construction and in his approach to two sections of the Criminal Code. “The trial judge erred in his assessment of the appropriate sentencing range and imposed a sentence that did not sufficiently reflect the high level of culpability required for a criminal conviction,” the appeal reads in part. The Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) applauded the Crown’s move to appeal this week. “The criminal conviction of Metron Construction was historic, but the imposition of a trivial sentence for the deaths
of four workers was a disgrace to the families of the survivors and set a shameful precedent,” OFL President Sid Ryan said in a statement released on Tuesday. “If a worker’s life is only worth $50,000, then bosses can simply chalk workplace fatalities up as the cost of doing business.” On Dec. 24, 2009, Alexander Bo n d o re v, 2 5 , A l e k s e y Blumberg, 33, Fayzulla Fazilov, 31, and Vladimir Korostin, 40, plummeted 13 storeys to their deaths when the highrise scaffolding they were working on at 2757 Kipling Ave. snapped in half and collapsed. None of them were connected to safety lifelines. A fifth worker, then-21year-old Dilshod Mamurov, who was not secured properly by his lifeline, clung briefly to the broken equipment before falling and suffering broken legs and a broken spine. A sixth, unnamed worker survived unharmed, as he was properly connected to his safety harness. All five victims of the acci-
dent – considered the worst construction accident in Toronto in more than 50 years – were reported to be migrant workers from the Republic of Uzbekistan, Ukraine, and Latvia. Back in June of this year, Metron Construction – the company the men were working for at the time of the accident – pleaded guilty to criminal negligence causing death in the accident, becoming the first firm in Ontario to be convicted of such a charge. While the OFL had been calling for jail time for Metron’s owner Joel Swartz, Justice Robert Bigelow instead handed down $200,000 in fines against Metron during sentencing on July 13. Swartz himself faces $90,000 in fines for Occupational Health and Safety Act violations. The ‘leniency’ of the penalty sparked outrage among workers and led the OFL to immediately call on the Crown to appeal the sentence, Ryan said. ~Cynthia Reason

>>>from page 1 The crane was removed late Wednesday afternoon. Meanwhile, power has been fully restored to the nearly 500 Toronto Hydro clients in the area whose lights went out Monday afternoon after the crane collapsed, downing area hydro poles and trapping 28 TTC passengers on a bus beneath the wreckage. Toronto Hydro spokesperson Jennifer Link said nearly 450 of those clients had their power restored by 8:30 p.m. Monday night, while the remaining 50 clients saw their power return by 5:30 a.m. Tuesday morning. The downed power lines also wreaked havoc for passengers aboard the 45 Kipling bus, upon which some of the lines fell. The 28 passengers on board remained trapped on the bus for about 40 minutes until Toronto Hydro could ‘de-energize’ the live electrical wires, allowing them to

Lacrosse runs in the family >>>from page 1 “The Summer Games was really exciting. It was a great way to win. It was awesome,” the Etobicoke teen said Wednesday of he and his teammates’ first Ontario Summer Games’s gold. The Etobicoke Guardian was the official newspaper of the Ontario Summer Games, which ran last weekend from Aug. 16 to 19. French, 15, has played with the Brampton team for three years. He credited the team’s success to some of its older players. Coach Dan Teat was felled by a workplace injury the day before and missed the big game due to surgery. But his team called him before and after the game and sent him photos of their winning smiles. “He is the best coach I’ve ever had. We owe all our success to him,” French said of Teat. Teat led the team to its status as undefeated in its last 18 playoff games prior to the Ontario Summer Games. Last summer, French was a member of Team Ontario’s

Players from Brampton swarm their netminder Tyler Smyth after they won over Orangeville by a score of 4-3 at the Ontario Summer Games Mens Box Lacrosse final on Sunday at Mimico Arena.
Lacrosse Team that won the national finals. “Ben was selected to Team Ontario last season and won a Canadian championship, but I think this Ontario championship meant more to him and his teammates,” said his Dad, Dean French. “Most of these players have been competing for a provincial gold medal every summer since they were six years old. It’s not an easy championship to win at the midget level.” Lacrosse is in the French family blood.
Older brother, Joe, was a member of Team Canada’s U19 Lacrosse Team that took home silver at the World Championships in Finland. Joe will be attending Georgetown University in DC in September 2013 on a full lacrosse scholarship. Younger brother Ben hopes to follow suit. Next month, Ben French enters Grade 11 at St. Michael’s College School in downtown Toronto. ~With files from Sean Durack

What to ask when getting an oil change Oil changes are probably the most common of automotive services – performed so frequently that consumers may often pass up the opportunity to get more for their service dollar. With automakers trying to gain increased efficiency, the “ordinary” oil change is becoming more comprehensive. Not only are companies recommending synthetic motor oil, but many automakers are developing their own oil specifications. The best way for consumers to ensure that they're getting optimal
protection and using a product that meets factory specs is to ask a few questions to their service provider. Doing your homework by reading the owner's manual is always a plus but simply knowing what to ask will go a long way. Here are some recommendations:
ASK WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE SERVICE Many dealers and service stations bundle several different inspections in with the oil change. It's a great time for a mechanic to inspect
brakes, hoses and undercar components to help stop a small problem from becoming a big and expensive one. In most cases, these additional inspections are a bargain.
ASK IF THE RIGHT SPECIFICATION OF MOTOR OIL IS BEING USED Oil-change facilities like to use “bulk oil,” which as the name implies, is a single viscosity grade and specification of oil bought in bulk from a supplier. It will often suffice for many motor vehicles, but certainly not all.
If your car or SUV requires a specialized formula of motor oil, such as high-efficiency 0W-20 synthetic, or a manufacturer's specification, such as GM dexos, this “standard” oil may cause problems and potentially invalidate the new-car warranty. How your mechanic handles these questions can help you determine if you trust his or her work. Not only that, but you'll become an informed consumer, more knowledgeable about protecting your automotive investment.

Focused on Electric
Tested here is the 2012 Ford Focus Electric or more properly BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle), which is just like any other Focus except there is no engine, gas tank and zero, and I mean zero, emissions. Outwardly, it is identical to a standard Focus and so is most of the standard equipment. Instead of an engine and gas tank, it has a 107-kW electric motor and a 23-kWh lithium-ion battery and a 6.6 kW onboard charger. The battery is n AT A GLANCE: BODY STYLE: five-door compact hatchback. DRIVE METHOD: front electric motor, front wheel drive. ENGINE: 107-kW electric motor and a 23-kWh lithium-ion battery for a combined 143 hp and 184 lb/ft of torque CARGO VOLUME: 41.5 cu ft CARGO CAPACITY: 481 litres behind second row, 1,212 litres with seats folded WEB SITE: www.ford.ca
both heated and cooled to cope with weather extremes. Ford in Michigan makes the battery in partnership with LG Chem. Together, power is rated at 143 hp and 184 lb/ft of torque. Ford claims it has a range of up to 160 km and top speed is 136 km/h with a one-speed transmission driving the front wheels. It comes equipped with a special hand-held five-prong plug and a 10-foot electric cord with a grounded three-prong plug at the other end that goes into any standard 110-volt outlet. Located on the left front fender, the charge port activates a light ring that illuminates the port twice when plugged in. Each quadrant represents 25 per cent of the maximum battery charge. Flashing quadrants represent charge in progress and solid-lit quadrants show stages of charge completion. The most obvious change inside for the driver is the main instrument cluster with a depiction of the battery to the left of the centre speedo showing Full at the top and Empty at the

bottom. As power is consumed, the level goes down and shows roughly how many kilometers remain based on the way the car is being driven at the time. You can add kms by braking and, as I was to find out, by coasting downhill. One of the anxieties about electric cars is charge time. Ford does offer a 240-volt charging station that is claimed to lower the charge time to something like four hours. On my first trip around town I covered 80.1 km and used 12.7 kW. The
display showed the battery down about 40 per cent. According to the supplementary readout, it was going to take 8.1 hours to recharge. Plugging in inside our garage at 8 p.m. to take advantage of off-peak power rates, the blue ring was out, showing it was fully charged when I went out to check at 8 a.m. the next day. That was quite acceptable, as getting around town and having it ready to go the next day is probably the main use this car will see.

Judicious use makes the Ford Focus Electric a practical family car that never needs to see a fuel pump again. With fuel costs ever rising, that attribute alone makes the Focus Electric a viable motive alternative and me much less skeptical.

The next generation SRT Viper GTS features an 8.4-litre V10 engine producing 640 hp and 600 lb/ft of torque. Shown is the 2013 Launch Edition unveiled at the recent Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
THE ULTIMATE ALTIMA CLEAROUT
SRT Unveils New 2013 Viper GTS The Chrysler Group's Street and Racing Technology (SRT) brand has staged the first official appearance of the new, limited-edition 2013 SRT Viper GTS Launch Edition model. It was held August 17 at the Quail Lodge as part of "The Quail: A Motorsports Gathering" event. Then on Aug. 18-19, the SRT Viper GTS Launch Edition will be displayed on the Concept Lawn at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. The 2013 SRT Viper GTS Launch Edition evokes memories of past Viper Coupe reveals in 1996 and 2006 with symbolic GTS Blue paint and dual Bright White stripes – exclusive to Launch Edition models – running the length of its all-new exterior that incorporates iconic Viper styling cues with a contemporary execution. The 2013 SRT Viper GTS Launch Edition carries on
the tradition of special Viper model builds to the fifth generation of the American-built supercar with true performance enthusiasts and collectors in mind. In addition to its historically significant paint scheme, the wheels on SRT Viper Launch Edition models are a modern deep-section design, featuring a fivespoke polished forged-aluminum design. "Stryker" badges found on the hood and steering wheel add to the exclusivity, with a blue background replacing grey found on all other 2013 SRT Vipers models.

Red roadster
The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 550 is more powerful and 13 per cent more fuel-efficient than the outgoing model.
It wasn’t so much the eyebrowraising amenities or the riveting acceleration of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 550 that captured my attention, but the fuel mileage. Good mileage in a 429 hp (516 lb/ft of torque) twin-turbo V8 luxury roadster was the last thing I was thinking about dur-
ing the Canadian press launch in Halifax - but the gas gauge rarely lies. After some 400 km, my co-driver and I used just a tad below half a tank. Later I learned the EnerGuide numbers for the new SL 550 are 12.7/8.1L/100 km city/highway. You’d never guess by looking at the engine. It’s a DOHC 4.6-litre
V8 with turbo intake runners the size of rainwater downpipes. All shrouded and jam-packed into the engine bay, good on gas is the last thing that comes to mind. And it is fast. The $129,900 (to start) SL 550 tested here gets from 0-100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. If that isn’t enough, the SL AMG
63 with this 530 hp (590 lb/ft) 5.5-litre biturbo does 0-100 km/h in 4.3 seconds and 4.2 seconds if you add the AMG Performance Package. And just to hammer it home, the SL AMG 65 with 621 hp (738 lb/ft) 6.0-litre V12 does it in 4.1 seconds with a top speed of 300 km/h. Highway cruising in the SL 550 is effortless. You can drive this car across Canada and emerge relaxed and rested. But when you get to windy roads, the real beauty of the new SL 550 comes to the fore. One of the contributors is Active Body Control (ABC) that adapts the damping of the car body to the current driving situation in a split second using high-pressure hydraulics and two high-performance microcomputers. By countering body pitch, roll and squat, the ABC system provides tenacious road holding as well as improved ride comfort. On the nifty side is a button just to the right to manually adjust ride height and beside that one, when pressed, shows a graphic on the centre monitor with G forces in real time. The standard 7G-TRONIC PLUS automatic transmission has been optimized in relation to fuel consumption and comfort and also contributes to low
fuel consumption, not to mention the 125 kg lighter body thanks to the extensive use of aluminum. The SL Active Lane Keeping Assist system raises the bar. When you stray across the yellow line, it gives a little vibration to the steering wheel. Inside, the new SL brims over with a truly lengthy list of standard and optional features. One is the unique “Frontbass� system, which turns the luxury sports car into a concert hall regardless whether the top is open or closed. It features subwoofers buried in the front foot wells that createn a resonating chamber that lets low notes through with minimum distortion. I could write volumes about the interior amenities but I have to mention the 10-way power front seats. They have a massage function with four settings including one called “Fast and Vigorous.� Longer than the outgoing SL, the upright grille with large three-pointed star, big slated air vents behind each front wheel and (for Canada) standard 19inch AMG wheels make for an imposing package moving or standing still. One way of wowing the onlookers was demonstrating how the trunk could be opened with
the swipe of a foot under the rear bumper. Part of the Premium Package, there are motion sensors beneath the rear valance panel. As long has you have the key in your pocket, you can walk up with arms full of groceries swipe and, presto, it opens. The roof goes up and down in 20 seconds and there are two to chose from. Also part of the system is a power wind blocker that retracts between the two seats. It was a glorious day in brilliant sunshine on near traffic free open roads. And in a red roadster like the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 550 how does it get better than that?.

Range Rover all new for 2013
All-wheel-drive will now be offered on the 2013 Jaguar XJ (left) and XF sedans.
Jaguar introduces all-wheel drive in selected markets Jaguar has announced all-wheeldrive (AWD) versions of the XF and XJ sedans will be available in selected markets from 2013 Model Year. Offered where consumer demand is highest – often driven by climate – the all-wheel-drive models will increase the capability and versatility of the XF and XJ in conditions where grip is compromised. North America, Russia, China and continental Europe will account for the majority of sales for the new AWD models which
are powered by Jaguarπs new 3.0-litre V6 supercharged 340 hp engine. North America is the world's leading market for AWD sales and initially more than three quarters of the AWD models produced at Jaguar’s Castle Bromwich factory in the UK from October 2012 will be sold in the US. With the new addition to the XF and XJ ranges Jaguar will compete in approximately 80 per cent of the luxury saloon market, four times its previous opportunity. – Metroland Media
