2023 Jaguar F-Pace SVR
Starting at $90.650
Highs Athletic handling, spine-tingling V-8 soundtrack, premium interior environs.
Lows Not particularly fuel efficient, some rivals offer even quicker acceleration, sharper steering would be appreciated.
Verdict The F-Pace SVR blends speed and sophistication in a way only a Jaguar can.
Overview
The standard Jaguar F-Pace is already a stunner of an SUV, but the 2023 F-Pace SVR takes its performance up a notch with a supercharged 550-hp V-8 engine and a more focused driving demeanor. The roaring engine motivated the Jag SUV to 60 mph in an impressive 3.7 seconds in our testing—but some of its rivals are quicker still. The Jag’s handling isn’t quite up to par with those competitors either, especially the Porsche Macan GTS and the BMW X3 M. To soften the blow of not being the quickest or the most agile, the F-Pace SVR treats its driver and passengers to a refined interior lined with premium materials and plentiful technology features.
What's New for 2023?
Jaguar is celebrating the anniversary of its 1988 24 Hours of Le Mans win this year with a limited run of Edition 1988 models of the F-Pace SVR. This purple Jag wears gold-colored wheels and other gold trim elements, but it doesn’t have any performance-enhancing goodies. Only 394 will be produced.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
F-Pace SVR: $90,650
Edition 1988: $111,150
Historically, Jaguar has offered the F-Pace SVR in a single lavishly equipped spec, but this year a limited series of the Edition 1988 will be offered too. We’d suggest sticking with the regular model as the Edition 1988 is likely to sell out quickly anyway. Standard equipment is generous, as it should be given the SUV's base price.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
All Jaguar F-Pace SVR SUVs come with a muscular supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 under the hood. This engine generates an impressive 550 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque and comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission that sends torque to all four wheels. In our testing, the F-Pace SVR made the 60-mph run in a scant 3.7 seconds. But while 3.7 seconds is indeed impressive for a vehicle this size, it trails the time logged by the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio. That SUV made the dash in a crisp 3.4 seconds. The F-Pace SVR offers keen handling and precise steering but not at the expense of driver comfort. Jaguar tuned the SVR to ride softly over harsh roads, making this ute a pleasant choice for daily commutes.
