Jaguar's 592Bhp XE Project 8 Storms In

THIS is the Jaguar XE SV Project 8, the most powerful roadgoing Jaguar ever made. It’s the latest limited-edition model to be developed by the company’s Special Vehicle Operations Division.

Previewed in camouflaged form ahead of a public debut at June’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Project 8 follows in the wheel-tracks of the F-Type-based Project 7. It will be hand-assembled at Jaguar’s SVO HQ in Coventry, and only 300 examples will be produced. Our exclusive image shows what it will look like when the wraps come off.
