Jaguar to honor last F-Sort earlier than switching to an all EV lineup

Jaguar is celebrating the last mannequin 12 months of the F-Sort and 75 years of manufacturing sports activities automobiles with a pair of special-edition F-Varieties for 2023. With Jaguar going to an all-electric lineup in 2025, this would be the swan tune for the internal-combustion F-Sort.

“For 75 years Jaguar has been famend for producing extraordinary sports activities automobiles that ship efficiency, agility and most driver reward,” says Matthew Beaven, Jaguar Land Rover Chief Designer, Exteriors. “The F-TYPE particular editions maintain true to those ideas, including distinctive inside and exterior design particulars to have fun this lineage earlier than Jaguar turns into an all-electric model from 2025.”

The F-Sort R-Dynamic is offered with a 296 bhp 2.0-liter turbocharged Ingenium four-cylinder engine that sends energy to the rear wheels. Jaguar states that the F-type 75 can go from 0-60 mph in 5.6-seconds and has a high velocity of 155 mph.

If you’re in search of better efficiency, the F-Sort 75 includes a 444 bhp 5.0-liter supercharged V8 out there in all-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive. Jaguar says each configurations propel the F-Sort 75 from 0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds and has a most velocity of 177 mph.

Stepping up from that, the F-Sort R 75 has a 567 bhp 5.0-liter supercharged V8, however solely is available in all-wheel drive. With better horsepower comes better efficiency, so the F-Sort R 75 blitzes from 0-60 mph in 3.5-seconds with an electronically-limited 186 mph high velocity.

Particulars for U.S. F-Varieties are presently not out there, and preliminary U.K. buyer deliveries begin in January 2023.

This can be a correct sendoff for the ultimate internal-combustion F-Sort. In each hardtop and convertible configurations, you get a traditional Jaguar profile in an honest-to-goodness GT. I’m unhappy to see the F-Sort go, however I’m curious to see what Jaguar affords subsequent because it strikes to an EV platform.
