Like the base F-Pace, the high-performance SVR model receives a few exterior styling revisions for 2021. The powertrain also gains a bit more torque, which should improve acceleration, and Jaguar tweaked the transmission tuning. Inside, a 11.4-inch curved glass touchscreen displays the brand's Pivi Pro infotainment system, and new faux-suede accents adorn the door panels and redesigned dashboard.
PROS Nice ride and handling balance, big-power V-8 engine, lovely exterior styling.
CONS Other rivals are quicker, doesn't offer Porsche-level handling sharpness, middling fuel economy.
Pros Subtle but effective design tweaks, clever and charismatic interior makeover, ride handling and performance
Cons P400 is a bit juicy, needs gloss black finish to avoid looking ever so slightly old hat

The Levante receives Maserati's new infotainment interface for 2021, but unlike its sedan siblings—the Ghibli and Quattroporte—it sticks with an 8.4-inch display.
