Like the F-Type R, power for the new F-Type SVR comes from the automaker's supercharged, 5.0-liter V-8. In the F-Type SVR the engine is rated 575 hp at 6,500 rpm and 516 lb-ft of torque from 3,500-5,000 rpm. That's 25 hp (6,500 rpm) and 14 lb-ft (2,500-5,500 rpm) more than the F-Type R. Jaguar says the F-Type SVR's engine calibration is adopted from the F-Type Project 7.
In order to keep the more powerful engine cool, the F-Type SVR gains larger front bumper air intakes, revised charge air coolers, and redesigned hood vents.
The F-Type SVR also gains a new lightweight Inconel titanium exhaust system with a unique split muffler design in place of the F-Type R's stainless steel single-box design. Benefits of the new exhaust include the ability to withstand higher temperatures, reduced backpressure, and a 35-pound weight savings. The new exhaust also allows for a more aerodynamic rear undertray.
Part of the exhaust system's weight savings comes from the ability to use a much thinner wall thickness because of Inconel's superior thermal resistance over stainless steel. And of course in standard Jaguar fashion, the new exhaust design allows for an even rowdier exhaust note that opens the new titanium valves at a lower rpm than in the F-Type R. The quad exhaust tips feature SVR logos.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system was also retuned for enhanced traction on various surface conditions while maintaining a rear-drive character. With the F-Type SVR in Dynamic mode and the DSC system set to TracDSC (or switched off completely), the all-wheel-drive system's IDD and EAD feature Jaguar's most aggressive tunes for maximum grip.
With the changes to the chassis settings along with the new (10mm) wider tires, Jaguar says the new F-Type SVR can hit 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds compared to a manufacturer estimate of 3.9 seconds for the all-wheel-drive F-Type R Coupe. In our testing, an all-wheel-drive 2016 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe hit 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and finished the quarter mile in 11.6 seconds at 121.5 mph. Jaguar also says the new F-Type SVR Coupe can top out at 200 mph, and the F-Type SVR convertible can reach 195 mph. The F-Type R is electronically limited to 186 mph.
Tangible chassis and suspension changes include a new "weight-optimized aluminum die casting" construction for the rear knuckle that increases camber stiffness by 37 percent and toe stiffness by 41 percent. A larger rear anti-roll bar and smaller front anti-roll bar work with the revised damper control software and recalibrated torque vectoring system to reduce understeer at high speeds. Revisions to the Jaguar Adaptive Dynamics system are said to improve both low-speed comfort and high-speed control.
In addition to the weight savings provided by the new exhaust system, the F-Type SVR's 20x9-inch and 20x11-inch forged alloy wheels save up to 30.4 pounds overall. The wheels are wrapped in 10mm wider Pirelli P Zero rubber measuring 265/35/ZR20 and 305/30/ZR20 front and rear. Coriolis wheels, available in either Satin Technical Gray or Gloss Black, are standard, and Satin Black polished Maelstrom wheels come with the optional Carbon Ceramic Matrix (CCM) braking system.
Standard brakes on the 2017 Jaguar F-Type SVR include the automaker's Super Performance braking system with 15.0-inch front and 14.8-inch rear steel brake rotors. The CCM braking system comes with 15.7-inch front and 15.0-inch rear carbon-ceramic rotors clamped by six- and four-piston monobloc calipers and removes 46 pounds of unsprung weight.
Jaguar says the F-Type SVR is 55 pounds lighter than the F-Type R and that the available CCM braking system, carbon-fiber roof, and other optional equipment reduce overall vehicle weight by as much as 110 pounds.

One of the most extraordinary and beautiful cars ever to reach production, the world's first hypercar (hitting close to 220mph while the McLaren F1 was still climbing off the drawing board) was vilified at its birth in 1992 for not having the 500bhp V12 engine, four-wheel drive and scissor doors promised in the concept and, at nearly 7ft wide, being too big for British roads. That it ended up with an even more potent (542bhp) twin-turbo V6 and lighter, rear-drive powertrain didn't cut much ice back then, though ironically the approach would have garnered more acceptance now. The XJ220 was regarded as something of an over-sized freak, an outsider that was never invited to join the cosy supercar cabal. The child of a collaboration between Jaguar's so-called 'Saturday Club' - an informal group of engineers, including engineering chief Jim Randle, who'd get together after hours to develop pet projects - and Tom Walkinshaw's TWR Engineering, the genesis of the XJ220 formed around Randle's idea to make a lightweight, mid-engined two-seat Jaguar that would eclipse the Ferrari F40 and Porsche 959. In the event, only 281 XJ220s were made between 1992 and 1994 against a projected production run of 350. The motoring press loved it, but commercially the XJ220 was a fiasco. A lot of the blame was laid at its Metro 6R4-derived V6 - and its sheer girth. True, there were things you had to adjust to in the XJ220 - size, turbo lag, steering that initially seemed heavy and unresponsive, strong understeer in the tightest bends, brakes that weren't really up to the job - but, learn its ways, and it was actually well poised, translating serious stonk into stunning speed across the ground through a polished fusion of grip, neutrality and benign adjustability. If only it hadn't been so wide.
