So JLR just stopped building ICE vehicles?
Then, why can I order a 2025 F-Pace SVR?
A seriously fast SUV!!

They extended the production run of the F-PACE specifically. Its their money maker. This was announced mid-July.

They continued with the F-Pace only as it was the only vehicle they were making at a profit (according to JLR). Since the tooling is all paid for and electrics won't be out until 2025 at the earliest, they need some kind of revenue stream.

Also, it shares a platform with the LR Velar.

I might consider this option.
Has anyone driven an F-Pace SVR?
Can anyone compare handling to an F-Type, either 6 or 8 cylinder)?
I am guessing more roll but the on-line reviews look pretty good.

There’s a 2020 with 59.000 miles close by for $47k I plan to go drive it today. Obviously it’s not going to handle like the Type but I desire the way upgraded trim and the effortless power of the SC V8.

Thanks Rob. I look forward to hearing about it. Starting to think about swapping out the Jeep and the F-Type for one of those.

So I drove it. Very un impressed. Understand this was a 2020 because I thought I wanted all the bangs and crackles that they got rid of in 2021.
There’s no way I’d trade in my F Type R for it. In fact there’s no way I trade my F Pace S for it. The interior isn’t that much nicer for $20K more.
It needs an exhaust button badly. I like that in the Type R you can poodle around nice and quiet and then hit the button for drama. The Pace SVR is drama all the time because you’re pushing around a larger beast.

Maybe the newer ones with the updated interior. Maybe the newer ones with the gentleman mode exhaust. Maybe a Cayenne Turbo.
