Jaguar Land Rover tagged posts

As we have mentioned before, Jaguar Land Rover is in the process of renaming its “R” and “R-S” high-performance models to a new name “SVR”, just like the 2015 Range Rover Sport SVR.

It is expected the next model which receives the “SVR” treatment will be the Jaguar F-Type. Today some spy shots of the rumored F-Type SVR emerged on the internet. Please see the below gallery.

The F-Type SVR is an enhanced version based on the current F-Type R, which has a supercharged 5.0L V8 with 550hp and all-wheel-drive. The SVR version may has final output as high as reaching the 600hp mark (has not been confirmed by JLR at this moment)...

Jaguar Land Rover To Get SVR Badge

Most auto makers only have one naming convention for its high performance models, for example BMW M, Mercedes-Benz AMG, Lexus F etc.

But this is not the case for Jaguar Land Rover currently. For example the Range Rover Sport has SVR variants:

the XF has the R-S mode (XFR-S):

and the most powerful F-Type is called “F-Type R”

This sounds like a chaos. But JLR is going to address this by using the SVR badge across the whole brand uniquely. This is confirmed by John Edwards, head of the JLR Special Vehicle Operations (SVO). Therefore in the future there will be no XFR-S or F-Type R, instead of the XF SVR and the F-Type SVR.
