The Jaguar F-Pace SVR will be making a
comeback for the facelifted iteration of the premium compact SUV, which is
currently in development. Spied doing the usual rounds on the Nurburgring, this
is probably the best-sounding model in its class, with a burbling V8. A BMW X3
M and Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 challenger, the 2021 F-Pace SVR will, in all
likelihood, continue to pack a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine.
Details surrounding the specs of the
refreshed variant are unknown, but in the current model it’s good for 542 HP and 680 Nm of torque. The four-wheel drive sporty
SUV features an eight-speed automatic transmission, does the 0-100
km/h in 4.3 seconds and maxes out at 283 km/h.
The updated F-Pace SVR will continue to
stand out from lesser versions with a beefed up body kit consisting of big
bumpers front and rear, more pronounced spoilers and a diffuser that has
cutouts for the quad exhaust pipes. Scooped prototypes also had large wheels
and upgraded brakes. The headlamps and taillights will be revised, as will the
grille. Unless something throws a wrench in JLR’s plans, the facelifted F-Pace
should premiere before the end of the year, followed at some point by the
range-topping SVR.
