F-Type with supercharged V8 to join the ranks soon

A new F-Type with a supercharged V8 option, badged as the P450, will join the Jaguar ranks in South Africa.

Boasting 331kW and 580Nm and being available in all-wheel and or rear-wheel drive, will leave buyers spoiled for choice.

“Both powertrains feature an electronic active rear differential to optimise traction, and both enable 0-100km/h in just 4,6 seconds and maximum speeds of 285km/h. All F-Types feature eight-speed Quickshift transmissions with full manual control using either the SportShift gear selector or the gearshift paddles.”

For the more discerning buyer, a 331kW V8 R-Dynamic coupe and convertible will be available.

Owners may expect the best in interior leather, meticulous attention to detail and a 12,3-inch interactive driver display.

For the performance purists, the F-Type R P575 will delight with 423kW and 700Nm of on-tap power. Standard in the F-Type R are electronically controlled dampers and configurable dynamics that will allow the driver to custom set up things like suspension stiffness, steering weight and gearshift response.

The release of the 2022 model range is planned for the second half of 2021.
