Introducing Jaguar’s fastest production car yet

The Jaguar F-Type isn’t a new sports car but it now has a special version that’s touted as the fastest production car the company has introduced—the Jaguar F-Type SVR. It’s also the first Jaguar car to carry the SVR badge, which is named after the Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations group (the team behind the project). It’s powered by a 5-liter V8 engine that produces 575 horsepower. It has improved aerodynamics, an even more badass-sounding exhaust system, new suspension, and other options like a carbon fiber roof panel and carbon ceramic brakes to make it run just a bit faster.

How fast is it at the moment? It reaches a top speed of 200mph for the coupe and 0-60 in just 3.5 seconds. It’s priced around US$126,000 (around $174,000) and it’s up for order in the U.S. already with deliveries expected at the beginning of the summer.
