Jaguar's latest beast is the 2018 XJR575

Hot off the rear wheels of
the insanely quick XE SV Project 8, Jaguar is back with another pumped-up sedan. It’s called the XJR575, and although it isn’t as extreme as the aforementioned XE, it still packs a version of the company’s 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that makes 575 horsepower and 517 pound-feet of torque. According to Jaguar, that will get the full-size luxury sedan to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds on its way to a top speed of 186 mph.

There isn’t much on the outside to tell this hot-rodded kitty from
the regular XJR. The front bumper, rear spoiler, hood vents, and side skirts are all the same as the lower-powered version. It does come standard with black wheels, but they can also be optioned on a normal XJR. There are only a couple of unique points. One of which is the addition of XJR575 badges. The other is the application of a model-specific paint color. Buyers of the XJR575 will have the option to coat their cats in the Satin Corris Gray seen above, or a hue called Velocity Blue.

Inside, seats are upholstered in black leather with red stitching. They feature diamond-stitched panels, as well. In the seat backs, the number 575 is embroidered. The sill plates also feature the XJR575 logo. The infotainment gets an upgrade, too, in the form of a bigger 10-inch touchscreen.

Jaguar hasn’t announced pricing or availability of the XJR575 yet. However, we will likely know soon, as the company will be revealing some updates for the rest of
the XJ line-up for the 2018 model year. We expect to get details on pricing and availability at that time.
