Topping the range is the F-Type SVR, with the same engine as the F-Type R uprated at 575 PS (423 kW 567 hp) enabling the car to attain a top speed of 322 km/h (200 mph) and accelerate from 0 to 97 km/h (60 mph) in 3.5 seconds. Next in the range is the V8 F-Type R, with Jaguar's 5.0-litre, 550 PS (405 kW 542 hp) supercharged V8 petrol engine, allowing the car to attain a top speed of 299 km/h (186 mph) and accelerate from 0 to 97 km/h (60 mph) in 4.0 seconds. The F-Type S has the same engine uprated at 380 PS (279 kW 375 hp), allowing the car to attain a top speed of 275 km/h (171 mph), and achieve acceleration from 0 to 97 km/h (60 mph) in 4.8 seconds. Powertrain Īt launch, the entry-level model used Jaguar's new 3.0-litre V6 supercharged petrol engine, producing a maximum power output of 340 PS (250 kW 335 hp), enabling the car to accelerate from 0 to 97 km/h (0 to 60 mph) in 5.1 seconds, and attain a top speed of 259 km/h (161 mph). Jaguar says by eschewing metal it can keep the car's centre of gravity low, while a Thinsulate layer means thermal and sound insulation is akin to a solid roof. The convertible roof is an electrically operated retractable fabric piece. Sound and vibration insulation is provided by the addition of a special underbody tray and engine mounts, and a double bulkhead between the engine bay and passenger compartment. The F-Type utilises an all-aluminium unitary chassis, assembled with flush rivets and glue. It accelerates to 97 km/h (60 mph) in 3.5 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). The Jaguar F-Type R has a 5.0 L supercharged V8 rated at 575 PS (423 kW 567 hp), 25 PS more than the outgoing model. The lineup now consists of the following models: The V6 engine option is now only available in North American markets, with the SVR variant discontinued.

On the exterior, it received new Pixel LED headlamps, new slender taillamps, 10-spoke 20-inch wheels, and a choice of new exterior paint finishes. The facelifted F-Type was unveiled in December 2019 with design and technological updates. Inspired by this, the british company Aston Martin made the V12 Vantage rally cars. The team was to be run by the very successful David Appleby Engineering.Ģ018 was a very steep learning curve in the very competitive British GT Championship and 2019 the rewards came with GT4 Pro/Am class wins at Oulton Park in races 1 and 2, and 2nd at Snetterton and Spa.īoth cars campaigned in 2018 and in 2019 the attention was focused on the one car with the other being used for testing purposes.Įstimated at $253,000 to $324,000 for two GT race cars, including an extensive spares package, is a very exciting prospect, bearing in mind a huge amount of expense far above the estimate has been put into this extremely special and unique project. To make this happen James Holder, co-founder of the clothing brand Superdry, the Invictus Games Foundation and Jaguar’s Special Vehicle Operations department collaborated to create a race team using two specially developed F-Types. In 2018 Invictus Racing was set up to offer those in the armed forces who had suffered, the opportunity to compete in the 2018-19 British GT Championship.
Invictus Games was created by Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex as an international adaptive multi-sport event for wounded, injured or sick armed services personnel.

At its introduction, the car was quoted to be available with a manual or automatic transmission and an optional all-wheel-drive system. His sudden death in 1999 led Ian Callum, the new Head of Design, to continue the project who would present the finalised concept car to the general public at the 2000 Detroit Auto Show to a positive response due to its retro styling which recalled Jaguar automobiles of the 1950s and 60s. Geoff Lawson, Jaguar's Head of Design, had been working on the development of the car, leading a team of three designers namely Keith Helfet, Adam Hatton and Pasi Pennanen.
The F-Type concept was a two-seat speedster with a 3.0-litre V6 engine from the S-Type saloon conceived to compete against light weight sports cars, such as the Porsche Boxster. Jaguar F-Type concept displayed in the British Motor Museum, Gaydon
