Jaguar takes F-PACE SVR to the next level
The steering system is enhanced with a new electronic power assistance system delivering greater immediacy.
The new Jaguar F-PACE SVR is now faster, more dynamic and refined than ever. The pinnacle of the performance SUV range is elevated to another level thanks to the latest enhancements by the Jaguar SV team.
The updates are delivered by a combination of new hardware and the move to Jaguar's advanced Electronic Vehicle Architecture dubbed EVA 2.0.
It also includes motorsport inspired design details, a performance focused interior and the latest connected convenience technologies.
The new F-PACE SVR is available exclusively with Jaguar's 5.0-litre V8 Supercharged petrol engine, which produces 405kW and 700Nm torque, an increase of 20Nm.
This uplift in torque delivers enhanced performance, with the F-PACE SVR capable of accelerating from 0-100km/h in 4.0 seconds, three-tenths faster than before, and a top speed of 286km/h.
The powertrain now features the same torque converter used in the Jaguar XE SV Project 8 super sedan, to withstand the higher loads produced.
A new dynamic launch feature also uses driveline inertia to maintain power to the wheels during gear changes, contributing to the SVR's sharper acceleration from a standstill. At the same time, F-PACE SVR is now more comfortable and enjoyable to drive at a relaxed pace, without compromising its high-speed dynamics, further underlining the new model's duality of purpose. The steering system is enhanced with a new electronic power-assistance system delivering greater immediacy, providing a heightened connection between the vehicle and driver. Modified tuning of the adaptive damping provides a more refined ride at low speeds, which is further improved by revised chassis bushes.
Drivers also benefit from improved brake feel in the new F-PACE SVR. The 395mm (front) and 396mm (rear) two-piece disc brakes are now supported by a new Integrated Power Booster which, along with a recalibration of the system, delivers a sportier and shorter brake pedal. This tuning is specific to the SVR performance flagship, while the brake system uses a new electric booster system. The improved cooling and smoothness of the vehicle also improve the performance of the brakes, giving the driver even greater confidence. The 5.0-litre V8 Supercharged petrol engine is paired with Jaguar's ultra-responsive, smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission which delivers rapid gearshifts for effortless performance, while adapting the way power is delivered to suit the driving situations.
