First things first, let’s get the obvious objections out of the way: if you’re concerned about fuel economy, affordable maintenance, and road noise, the Jaguar F-Pace SVR is absolutely not the right car for you. The F-Pace SVR is brash, deafeningly loud, crudely offensive, and borderline anti-social, but for some people–the right people–its imperfect attributes are precisely what make Jaguar’s super-SUV so uniquely captivating.
An uncommon occurrence for a brand-new car of our current era, the Jaguar F-Pace SVR has a distinct character like no other. You either harbor a deep, unrelenting adoration for supercharged, V8-powered Jaguars, or you utterly despise their sheer crudeness–there is no in-between. That unapologetic nature of Jaguar’s most exciting offerings is what loyalists of the brands have always cherished. In a sort of “if you know, you know” fashion, Jaguar has long appealed only to those buyers who truly appreciated the brand’s relative insanity–its emotional appeal. The F-Pace SVR (along with the recently-discontinued F-Type), resembles the last remnants of a Jaguar that now, to the detriment of long-time fans and many loyal buyers, no longer exists.
