2024 Jaguar F-Pace P550 V8 SVR

The F-PACE SVR is Jaguar's answer to the fast-SUV question, pairing the supercharged 5.0-litre V8 with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed Quickshift automatic. This 2024 (74-plate) example makes 542 bhp and 700 lb-ft, enough for 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds and a 178 mph top speed. It is a large, practical body with a genuine towing rating of 2,400 kg, which sets it apart from most rivals with this kind of performance.

It has covered 15,350 miles and has had just one owner. Finished in grey with the Black Exterior Pack, it also has premium LED headlights with signature daytime running lights. Inside are 14-way heated and cooled electric memory performance front seats and a Meridian sound system, with Android Auto for smartphone connectivity.

The supercharged V8 is a rarity in a class increasingly moving to turbocharged or electrified power, and the SVR badge marks the top of the F-PACE range. A late-build, low-mileage, single-owner car like this one is a good way to get the full V8 experience, and the 274 g/km CO2 figure reflects the engine's character.
