2016 Jaguar F-Type SVR

In the same month that the F-Pace SUV became the fastest-selling Jaguar of all time, the F-Type arrived in ‘Supercar territory’. Introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2016, the F-Type SVR was a lighter, faster and sharper version of Jaguar’s F-Type ‘R’ All-Wheel Drive. It was powered by the same 5-litre supercharged V8 but now produced 567bhp at 6,500rpm and a remarkable 516lb/ft of torque at 3,500pm, with all this power transferred to the road through a Special Vehicle Operations-developed 8-speed automatic transmission and split-bias four-wheel drive. The SVR was now a seriously quick motor car with 0-62mph in a tad less than 3.5 seconds and a genuine 200mph available; however the external differences from the F-Type R were stylish and subtle with a new aerodynamics package that included a new front bumper, splitter, flat undercarriage, rear venturi and an active rear wing that rises at 70mph. What wasn’t quite so subtle was the new optional Titanium and Inconel quad-pipe exhaust system which was a full 16kg lighter but featured valves that open at 2,500rpm generating a distinctive metallic bark that will rattle windows and upset the neighbours. You don’t have to use full throttle and it is possible to progress in a civilised manner with the system switched off, but the option is there!
