A Jaguar F-Type SVR with 600 CV?

It seems that 600 CV is the figure the English brand Jaguar is considering for what will be the most powerful and sporty version of the entire range of the small roadster.

We are talking about the F-Type, which in its SVR version will become a true surface-to-surface missile with great chances of targeting well-known models.

SVR models are the most special vehicles in the Jaguar-Land Rover group, and they are designed and developed by the SVO (Special Vehicle Operations) division. Currently on the market we can find the Range Rover Sport SVR, the most radical version of the English off-roader, as well as the Range Rover SVAutobiography, both creations of the SVO division.

In Jaguar we are not yet fortunate enough to enjoy any vehicle bearing the letters SVR, and the F-Type will be the one to have the honor of debuting them with the arrival of this very special version. The F-Type already enjoys several sporty versions, among which the F-Type S stands out for the V6 engines (380 CV).

Furthermore, for the V8 engine there is an even more powerful alternative, the F-Type R, which with 550 CV is crowned as the current most beastly version in the entire range, and which is available both in rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive for those seeking total effectiveness and an extra touch of safety.

It seems, however, that the 5.0 V8 engine of the English group has no limits, and with the arrival of the SVR version its performance will be increased a little further, reaching at least 600 CV, a figure that would be quite significant if we consider that rivals such as the Porsche 911 Turbo S have 560 CV and the new R8 V10 in its Plus version reaches 610 CV.

Considering that the current F-Type R is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds in its AWD version, we can expect an acceleration for the SVR version below 4 seconds, with a top speed that will possibly exceed 310 km/h.
