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.
