Dynamic Downsize: Jaguar F-type 2.0 R -Dynamic Coupe

Downsizing means that you are generally left with a product that is lesser than its previous iteration, in terms of performance and the overall experience it delivers. The Jaguar F-Type has recently been victim to this phenomenon, where instead of a six- or eight-cylinder engine, the range starts with a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged engine. But is that really a bad thing? Let’s find out.

When it comes to modern-day sports cars, the F-Type is easily one of the most beautiful. A descendant of the legendary E-Type, its long bonnet and sloping roofline that merges with the wide rear haunch creates a gorgeous stance that is admirable from any angle. The new-for-2018 LED headlights sharpen up its British sport-tuxedo, and while all variants of the Jaguar F-Type range are near-identical from the outside, the only differentiation comes from their exhaust muffler. The V8 gets four pipes, the V6 gets two, while the 2.0-litre R-Dynamic Coupe receives a large single central unit finished in chrome.
