Just a few weeks since Jaguar Land Rover announced the start of their Special Operations, the British company has come out with some very interesting models, and apart from debuting the most powerful Land Rover, they have also debuted the most powerful Jaguar production car ever at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed. The F-Typre Project 7, is the latest model in Jaguar’s acclaimed F-Type sports car range, and is the first Jaguar performance vehicle from Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Operations team. The car will be produced in an exclusive, limited-edition run of up to 250 units. Its distinctive roadster body, introduced in concept form last summer, pays tribute to one of the most famous and iconic racing Jaguars – the three-time Le Mans winning D-type, which in 2014 is celebrating its 60th anniversary year. The F-Type Project 7’s name pays homage to Jaguar’s seven outright Le Mans wins. The 2014 Jaguar F-Type Project 7 is not only the most focused derivative of the award-winning F range, but is also the fastest and most powerful production Jaguar ever built.
The car is powered by Jaguar’s 5.0-litre supercharged V8 engine, which now pumps out 570bhp and 680Nm of torque, and this allows the all-aluminium-bodied car to achieve acceleration from 0-100kmph in just 3.9-seconds, and achieve an electronically-limited top speed of 300kmph. The F-Type Project 7 looks like a radical sports car but it is fully road-legal, and has a removable roof and 196-litre storage space. The car will go on sale sometime next year.
