Jaguar Land Rover will unveil three performance models during this year's Pebble Beach Automotive weekend (August 14-17, 2014), kicking things off on Thursday at the famous Concours d'Elegance.
The first one is a 550-horsepower Range Rover Sport SVR (global debut), which last week became the world's fastest SUV by completing the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife in 8 minutes and 14 seconds. SVR, by the way, is a new designation which will be worn by all future Jaguar Land Rover high-performance models.
Next up is the U.S. production version of the Jaguar F-TYPE Project 7, an all-aluminum, fully road-legal two-seater roadster with bespoke carbon-fibre aerodynamic aids. It also features a sleek fairing inspired by the D-type (2014 marks the 60th anniversary of the iconic Jag). Similar to the Range Rover Sport SVR, Project 7 was created by Jaguar Land Rover's Special Vehicle Operations division.
Finally, Jaguar will unveil the prototype of the new Lightweight E-type — of which six customer cars will be built (18 were initially planned) and sold at about £500,000 ($920,000) apiece.
Land Rover will also feature its full product lineup including the long-wheelbase Range Rover, the Range Rover Evoque Autobiography, and the “Great Divide” past and present 1990 and 2014 edition vehicles.
