While we’ll have to wait until February 17 for full details about the F-Type SVR, Jaguar says it will be capable of hitting 320 km/h (200 mph) and as expected, by produced by Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations department, becoming the first series production auto manufacturer by the exclusive division.

Aerodynamic enhancements include a more prominent rear diffuser, a large front spoiler and a rear wing that is claimed to reduce lift by up to 80%.

As with the F-TYPE R, the two-seat aluminium-bodied F-TYPE SVR Coupe will also be available as a convertible.

That means the 5.0-litre supercharged V8 in Jaguar’s first SVR model will offer 18kW more power and 20Nm more torque than the rear-drive F-TYPE R Coupe, making it 0.4 seconds quicker to 100km/h and 22km/h faster.

Lighter, faster and more powerful, the new F-TYPE SVR takes performance, dynamics and driver involvement to a new level yet retains the comfort and duality of character inherent to all Jaguar cars. The SVR is being kept in check by the high-performance braking system, an electronic rear differential, and the sport tuned suspension with controllable dampers. Fans will also notice a set of20-inch forged aluminum wheels that are shod in Pirelli P Zero tires.
