While we’re all gearing up for the launched the new Jaguar XE in M’sia tomorrow at 10am – do stay tuned for that – at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar has confirmed plans to make a grand debut of the new Jaguar F-Type SVR at the motor show before it goes on sale in mid-2016.

Capable of accelerating to a top speed of 320km/h, the new F-Type SVR hardtop is the first Jaguar to wear the SVR badge and is “developed to exploit the two-seat aluminum sports car’s full potential while retaining its day-to-day usability”.

The British brand doesn’t go much further in providing more details of the car but mentioned that the new F-Type SVR is expected to be lighter, faster and more powerful, “taking performance, dynamics and driver involvement to a new level while retaining the comfort and duality of character inherent to all Jaguar cars.”

“The new F-Type SVR is the first series production Jaguar car to be developed by Special Vehicle Operations and benefits from everything we know about precision engineering, performance and design,” said John Edwards, Managing Director, Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations. “The result is a 320kmh, all-weather supercar that you can drive every day – we even made a Convertible version so that enthusiasts can revel in the sound from the new titanium exhaust system.”

While the F-Type SVR will hit the Geneva stage on March 1, we won’t be waiting that long for all the details because Jaguar is set release a complete array of images and details on February 17. So, we’ll keep you updated when the time comes!
