The 5.0-litre supercharged V8 F-PACE SVR will be roaring up the famous hillclimb at Goodwood Festival of Speed for its UK dynamic debut, as part of an action-packed Jaguar show.
With sports car performance and SUV styling, the F-PACE SVR accelerates from 0-60mph in 4.1 seconds, accompanied by the charismatic soundtrack from the Variable Valve Exhaust System – 6.6kg lighter than the unit on a standard F-PACE. Designed and engineered by Special Vehicle Operations (SVO), the F-PACE SVR also features an uprated chassis and improved aerodynamics.
The performance show-stoppers from Jaguar continue at Goodwood, with the most powerful Jaguar ever – the 600PS XE SV Project 8 – also taking to the hill, alongside the Invictus GT4 Racing F-TYPE SVR, campaigned in the British GT series.
Festival of Speed visitors will have their very first opportunity to see the Jaguar XJ50, a special edition model designed to celebrate 50 years of the iconic XJ saloon. The XJ50 will appear alongside Jaguar’s revolutionary new I-PACE all-electric SUV on the Jaguar Land Rover stand, as part of the brand’s largest ever presence at Festival of Speed.
Located alongside the Jaguar Land Rover stand is Jaguar’s exhilarating F-TYPE Drift Experience, allowing fans to see, hear and feel the raw performance of a Jaguar sports car drifting in the hands of a professional driver. The experience will be running throughout the show, accessed from the Jaguar Land Rover stand.
Jeremy Hicks, Jaguar Land Rover UK MD, said: “This year at Goodwood Festival of Speed we’re celebrating everything that the modern Jaguar brand is about; stunning design, innovation, heritage and incredible performance. From F-PACE SVR roaring up the hill and F-TYPE on the drift track to the XJ50 and all-electric I-PACE on the Jaguar Land Rover stand, we’re looking forward to putting on an astonishing show for all Festival of Speed visitors.”
