The Jaguar F-Type SVR brings the F-Type to a whole new level, with more power, less weight, and an even more dramatic exhaust sound than before. The titanium/inconel exhaust gets its deep dramatic sound through several tuning measures, but there is an active bypass valve that redirects exhaust flow through a more direct path out, reducing the muffling. Fuel can also be injected into the exhaust to allow the iconic crackles and pops from the tailpipes.

Overall, the near perfect throttle response of the 5.0L supercharged V8, matches with the beastly roar from the exhaust amounts to an unbelievably joyful drive. It's truly one of the finest road cars I've ever driven.
