If you\u2019re a fan of Jaguar, you\u2019ll have no doubt heard of the XE SV Project 8.<\/p>\n

Conceived in the skunkworks SVO division of Jaguar Land Rover, the XE SV Project 8 is the most powerful, hardcore Jaguar ever produced. Despite it being based on a sensible compact sedan, it\u2019s even harder than the F-Type-based Project 7 that was teased in 2015.<\/p>\n

Anyway, introduction over, if you know about the Project 8, you\u2019ll want to see it in the metal. Well, here\u2019s your chance \u2013 it\u2019ll be at the Dubai International Motor Show from 14 to 18 November.<\/p>\n

Naturally, Jaguar will have a host of its regular stuff on its stand at the Motor Show, too, but the Project 8 is what we\u2019re really interested in. And here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n

Firstly, it\u2019s got a heavily reworked version of Jaguar\u2019s supercharged 5.0-litre V8. In the Project 8, it\u2019s developing as near as makes no difference 600 bhp. That means it\u2019ll go from 0-100 km\/h in 3.7 seconds, and that means that the Project 8 is the fastest-accelerating Jaguar ever built. Oh, and it\u2019ll go on to a top speed of 322 km\/h.<\/p>\n

And Jaguar has done much more than simply whack a big engine into the Project 8. It comes with four-wheel drive in order to get all of that power down onto the road. It\u2019s also had lots of light-weight racing bits added to it, such as a carbon-fibre Bumper with enhanced cooling ducts, a vented carbon-fibre bonnet, flared bodywork covering 20-inch forged aluminium alloy wheels, an adjustable front splitter, a flat underbody, a rear carbon-fibre bumper, a rear diffuser and an adjustable rear aerodynamic wing.<\/p>\n

An if you really want to geek out over this car\u2019s set-up, you\u2019ll revel in the double-wishbone front and integral-link rear suspension with stiffer springs and manually adjustable continuously variable dampers that provide a 15mm lower ride height for track use. The Project 8 also debuts new carbon ceramic brakes, Formula 1-style silicon nitride ceramic wheel bearings, and incorporates a rear electronic active differential with oil cooler.<\/p>\n

Want to see how all of that comes together? Check out the pics below, and get yourself down to Dubai Motor Show in a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
