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 2021 Jaguar F-PACE comes with a revised front and rear styling, New 11.4-inch infotainment screen with updated software, New V6 engine available with 335 or 395 hp, Thoroughly redesigned interior.

Porsche updated the Macan's front and rear bumpers and added new wheel designs to the order form for 2022. The interior sports a reworked center console, steering wheel, and shift lever. The base turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder now makes 261 horsepower, and the Macan S inherits the 375-hp twin-turbo 2.9-liter V-6 from last year's GTS. Porsche cut the Turbo from the list but transferred its 434-hp V-6 to the GTS.
PROS Spry handling, eager powertrains, sporty exterior styling.
CONS Standard interior materials don't impress, snug rear seat, most rivals offer more cargo space.
