Report - Jaguar Land Rover to create more SVR models
The Range Rover Sport SVR, the fastest road car ever built by the British SUV specialist, made its Goodwood debut in the form a development prototype, marking the birth of JLR's new performance moniker 'SVR'.
Carsuk.net reports that Tata-owned JLR would suffix all its future products built by the Special Operations department with SVR. While the Range Rover Sport SVR will debut sometime next year, the Jaguar F-Type with the Project 7's 567 hp supercharged 5.0-litre engine is expected to be the second model to adopt the new performance badge. The Jaguar F-Type SVR could be the range topping variant of the lineup.

The Jaguar F-Type SVR could signal an end to the brand's current R and R-S performance variants. In other words, the SVR brand to JLR would become what AMG is to Mercedes.
Coming back to the Range Rover Sport SVR, the performance SUV packs a 542 hp 5.0-litre supercharged V8 petrol motor that is available in the Jaguar XFR-S and the XJR. The SUV would have the Porsche Cayenne Turbo in its cross-hair. JLR has released a video of the Range Rover Sport SVR doing the famous Goodwood Hillclimb, embedded above.
