Jaguar Xe Sv Project 8

The Jaguar XE SV Project 8 might have a goofy name, but it’s not a goofy car in any way, shape, or form. This is a serious sedan on steroids, and a car I’d love to have in my garage if money were no object.

Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations took its awesome XE SV Project 8 four-door car to the Green Hell of the Nürburgring and unleashed the orange beast on the track with pro driver Vincent Radermecker behind the wheel.

When I first heard rumors that Jaguar was stuffing one of their famed V8 engines under the hood of the XE sport sedan, I wasn’t sure that it could be done. But the masterminds at Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations have made it happen.

Jaguar continues to impress with some of the most powerful and exciting cars you can buy today. Now, Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations is turning their attention to the XE, bestowing the sports sedan with a 600 ps (~592 hp) 5.0-liter V8 supercharged engine.
