Rob Fraser continues his love affair with fast SUVs, this week driving the Jaguar F-PACE SVR . Jaguar has added the delicious SVR version to its successful F-PACE range.
Jaguar SVR brings with it a host of performance additions, exterior modifications and interior trim. The main one however is the delicious 405 Kw 5.0L supercharged V8.
Technology includes Adaptive dynamics, on demand AWD with Adaptive Surface Response, Variable Valve Active Exhaust System plus a host more.
Let’s get to the performance. The SVR will rocket from 0-100kmh in 4.3 seconds and will top out north of 280kmh.
The chassis dynamics handled everything asked of it without fuss, the sound of the exhaust is awesome.
The balance between steering input and throttle input allows the driver to revel in the responsiveness and balance.
Priced from a bit over $140,000 plus the usual costs its not for everyone but those that do buy one will not be disappointed.
