BEING GERMAN, PEOPLE SOMETIMES ACCUSE ME OF BEING A BIT BIASED TOWARDS TEUTONIC AUTOMOBILE PRODUCTS. Well, true or not, I was recently blown away by an English car – the incredibly impressive Jaguar F-Pace SVR.
Having gone fully electric with the I-Pace to calm the world-wide Greta crowd, Jaguar didn’t forget their enthusiastic V8-loving clientele. A year later than originally planned the most powerful F-Pace ever was launched, having received the full SVR (Special Vehicle Racing) treatment. Making it only the third car in the group, after the F-Type and Range Rover, to be blessed with this exciting performance upgrade.
The heart of Jaguar’s wildest cat is the supercharged 5.0-L V8 petrol powerplant, putting out 405kW and delivering 680Nm of torque, resulting in a top speed of 283km/h and an acceleration of 4.3 seconds from 0 to 100km/h. That’s not mere sporty, that’s supercar territory. This would usually come with severe limitations to comfort and luxury. Apparently this is not the case.
