Jaguar F-Pace SVR 575 Ultimate Edition is a V8-powered last hurrah for Australia
The 2026 Jaguar F-Pace SVR 575 Ultimate Edition is an Australian-exclusive farewell to V8 power from the British brand, and only 60 examples of the special-edition large luxury SUV will come to local showrooms as the historic automaker transitions to electric-only power from 2026. Jaguar offered just 24 examples of its final V8-powered F-Type in Australia last year, following the end of production for the brand's only sports car in June 2024, and this limited-edition SUV could be the last ever V8-powered model offered by Jaguar in Australia. Based on the standard F-Pace 575 SVR Edition, the Ultimate Edition turns the wick (and the price) up to 11. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The farewell edition employs the same supercharged 5.0-litre V8 for the final time and is priced at $182,235 before on-road costs – a jump of $27,000 over the standard F-Pace P575 ($155,296 plus on-roads). It makes the same 423kW of power and 700Nm of torque as the standard Edition, which is the V8's highest state of tune, enabling it to accelerate from 0-100km/h in a claimed 4.0 seconds on its way to a 286km/h top speed. However, the Australian-exclusive Ultimate Edition gets some unique colour and trim options. On the outside there are 22-inch 'Forged Diamond' alloy wheels in a unique gloss black and grey finish, joined by exclusive badging and four paint choices – Sorrento Yellow Gloss, British Racing Green Gloss, Icy White Gloss and Ligurian Black Satin – each with a contrasting 'Black Pack'. There's also privacy glass, a sliding panoramic roof and gloss black roof rails, while inside the cabin there are Ebony Semi-Aniline performance seats and carbon-fibre inlays, plus a head-up display for the driver. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard, along with Amazon Alexa integration. In 2024, Jaguar announced bold plans to axe its entire lineup, ending petrol and diesel engine production before a deliberate pause in production as it rebrands itself as a high-end, electric-only automaker. At the time, Jaguar Australia said it would have enough vehicles to keep showrooms stocked through 2025. This includes the F-Pace, the final model to be exported to markets outside the UK, where Jaguar said vehicles would continue to be available into early 2026. The radical change in philosophy and production halt sparked controversy and Jaguar stirred the pot further when it revealed its new design direction with the Type 00 electric GT concept in December 2024. Jaguar Australia sold just 259 vehicles in the first five months of 2025, which is down 17 per cent on the same period in 2024 as it winds stock down, with the F-Pace accounting for more than half of its sales total (144) to remain its best-seller.

2025 Jaguar F-PACE Review: Expert Insights, Pricing, and Trims
If you've ever been attracted to the F-Pace's curves and snarling exhaust note, act now because it's not clear how much longer the model will remain in the lineup. As Jaguar shifts even further upmarket and makes the leap to an all-electric product strategy, this is likely the final model year of the F-Pace. The 2025 Jaguar F-Pace challenges rivals such as the BMW X3, Genesis GV70, and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. What's New On the cusp of discontinuation, the Jaguar F-Pace enters 2025 with a few updates. The Driver Intelligence package receives a 360-degree camera and an automated parking assist system The F-Pace SVR receives a new P575 badge and an output bump to 567 hp, an increase of 25 hp over the prior model year What We Think As Jaguar's rebranding continues, the F-Pace lingers as the automaker's only model for 2025. The compact luxury SUV, which was originally introduced for 2017 and was most recently refreshed for 2021, is showing its age. The exterior styling and cabin layout remain attractive, but we'd be hoping for a total redesign for 2026 if Jaguar hadn't already confirmed the F-Pace's discontinuation. There are plenty of reasons why you might want to snap up an F-Pace before it's gone. The available turbocharged and electric supercharged inline-six makes use of mild hybrid assistance. Not only does this P400 version of the F-Pace sound sweet and deliver power smoothly, it has sharp steering and nimble handling. Braking feel and off-road capability are other positive attributes. Stepping up to the SVR model swaps the I-6 for a supercharged V-8 with a delectable engine note and outrageous power output. The six- and eight-cylinder F-Paces deliver a great driving experience, but we recommend forgoing the forgettable base engine. Inside the SUV, the infotainment system isn't as user friendly as the touchscreens found in the competition. Pricing is another issue; Jaguar charges a pretty penny for the privilege of driving its only model. Ultimately, the cost is worth it if you're able to spring for the I-6 and V-8 variants—the F-Pace remains an attractive and fun-to-drive alternative. Performance and MPGs The 2025 Jaguar F-Pace carries over with the same trio of powertrains as 2024, although the range-topping SVR model gets a power bump as a farewell present for the compact luxury SUV. All models continue to receive a standard eight-speed automatic transmission and AWD. The base F-Pace P250 comes equipped with a 2.0-liter turbo-four developing 247 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. Acceleration from 0-60 mph requires 6.9 seconds, which is somewhat sluggish for the segment. The EPA rates the 2025 F-Pace P250 at 22/27 mpg city/highway. The mild-hybrid F-Pace P400 uses a turbocharged and electrically supercharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine developing 395 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque. 0-60 mph falls to 5.9 seconds, which is much more acceptable for a vehicle in the F-Pace's competitive class. Fuel economy is pegged at 19/25 mpg. At the top of the trim walk is the F-Pace SVR P575, which develops 567 hp for the 2025 model year. That's an increase of 25 hp over the 2024 F-Pace SVR. Torque remains the same at 516 lb-ft. Jaguar claims the updated SVR model can sprint from 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds. That acceleration comes courtesy of a 5.0-liter supercharged V-8 engine, so its thirstiness is reflected in the EPA's rating of 15/21 mpg. 2025 F-Pace SVR 575 Edition In addition to its 5.0-liter supercharged V-8 engine, the F-Pace SVR 575 Edition receives other upgrades to reinforce its status as one of Jaguar's Special Vehicle Racing models. Model-specific features include bigger brakes, an active electronic differential, torque vectoring by braking, adaptive suspension damping, sticky low-profile summer tires, and selectable drive modes. These are just the type of enhancements drivers expect from a super SUV capable of attaining a 178-mph top speed. Supercharged V-8 engines are on the verge of extinction, so this last-chance version of the F-Pace is also a rare opportunity to drive a rapid SUV like this. Safety Features Jaguar outfits every 2025 F-Pace with the same basic advanced safety features including: Automatic emergency braking Blind-spot assistance Driver condition monitoring Lane keeping assistance Front and rear parking sensors Rear traffic monitoring Traffic sign assistance Jaguar also makes adaptive cruise standard across the entire F-Pace lineup. SVR models get a standard 360-degree camera. Cargo Space and Interior Room The 2025 Jaguar F-Pace is on the larger side of the compact luxury SUV class. Second-row legroom is ample for adults and flipping down the rear seats opens up plentiful storage space. Technology Every 2025 Jaguar F-Pace receives a standard 11.4-inch infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless charging, and a 12-speaker premium sound from Meridian. Jaguar offers other available tech such as a Wi-Fi hot spot and a head-up display. Value Recommended Trim Jaguar continues to offer the 2025 F-Pace in R-Dynamic S P250, R-Dynamic S P400, and SVR P575 variants. And although we'd love to have a 567-hp SVR 575 Edition F-Pace in our driveway, the F-Pace R-Dynamic S P400 is the one that makes more financial sense. Balancing strong acceleration and engaging handling with sensible fuel economy, the inline-six version of the F-Pace starts just under $70,000. If any version of the F-Pace appeals to you, however, head to a dealership now. As Jaguar rebrands, the F-Pace is getting discontinued after the 2025 model year.

3 Luxury SUVs That Will Have Massive Price Drops in Summer 2025
Luxury vehicle buyers are about to witness some incredible deals as high-end SUVs face unprecedented depreciation challenges this summer. Check Out: Try This: According to Lauren Fix, automotive expert at Car Coach Reports, many luxury SUVs will experience massive price drops due to delivery inventory issues, declining demand and elevated insurance rates. Summer 2025 represents an ideal window for purchasing these sophisticated vehicles as dealers become increasingly motivated to clear inventory. The depreciation trends affecting luxury automotive brands stem from shifting consumer preferences, economic pressures and evolving market dynamics. Smart buyers who understand these patterns can capitalize on exceptional opportunities to own premium SUVs at a fraction of original prices. The Alfa Romeo Stelvio faces severe depreciation challenges as this Italian sports SUV struggles to maintain competitive positioning against rivals. According to CarEdge, the Stelvio depreciates approximately 67% after five years, resulting in a resale value of just $18,957. Recent auction results demonstrate the dramatic value decline, with a 2024 Stelvio Veloce selling for $32,500 after originally costing $53,120, per Carscope report. Fix explained that Stellantis ownership has contributed to declining sales alongside concerns about average interior quality and reliability issues. The Stelvio was designed for curvy roads but faces steep competition from established luxury brands offering superior value retention. Consumer awareness regarding high starting prices and questionable long-term reliability continues to impact demand significantly throughout American markets. Be Aware: Jaguar's F-Pace experiences substantial depreciation problems as the British luxury brand struggles with declining consumer interest and weak sales performance. The F-Pace depreciates 57.7% after five years, resulting in a resale value of approximately $24,090 according to iSeeCars. Fix noted that Jaguar's recent commercial campaign for their all-electric vehicles has fallen flat with American consumers. The brand's transition strategy has created confusion among buyers, leading to significant inventory accumulation and aggressive pricing incentives from dealers. Jaguar's historically weak resale values compound current market challenges, making the F-Pace particularly vulnerable to steep price reductions. Dealers are offering substantial deals to move inventory as consumer attention shifts toward more reliable luxury alternatives. The Porsche Macan faces unique depreciation pressures following the brand's controversial decision to electrify their most popular SUV model completely. While the Macan typically depreciates 42.5% after five years — with better value retention than competitors — electric versions are struggling significantly, per iSeeCars. Fix explained that Porsche's transition to all-electric Macan resulted in minimal sales, forcing the reintroduction of gas-powered variants. The Macan handles like a true sports car, but electric vehicle sales have fallen flat among traditional Porsche enthusiasts. EV Macans are accumulating on dealer lots with prices dropping massively as consumer demand remains disappointingly low nationwide. This situation creates exceptional opportunities for buyers interested in electric luxury SUVs at substantially reduced prices.

Jaguar Be Damned: JLR Just Had its Best Profit in a Decade
Jaguar revealed on Wednesday that it delivered $3.33 billion in profit for its fiscal year ending March 31st, 2025—its largest in a decade. The success comes despite the Indian-owned British conglomerate ending sales of virtually every Jaguar model. Jaguar sold just 26,862 cars from March 2024 to March 2025—a drop of 45.8 percent. Around half of those cars were F-Pace SUVs . The other half were leftover models sitting on dealer lots. Model Sales (Units) Land Rover Defender 115,404 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 79,862 Land Rover Range Rover 77,000 Jaguar (Total) 26,862 JLR's success, then, came from the brand's other arm: Land Rover. The Defender continues to be the carmaker's best-seller, moving 115,404 units in the last 12 months, according to Autocar . In second place was the Range Rover Sport, with 79,862 units sold, an increase of 19.7 percent. Behind that was the full-size Range Rover, at just under 77,000 units sold. The brand also points to plug-in hybrids for its success. JLR saw sales of PHEVs jump by 21.7 percent year-over-year. Sales of PHEV-powered Range Rovers, meanwhile, spiked by 38.2 percent in the same period. Despite a tariff deal between the US and the UK, which would see tariffs drop to 10 percent, JLR's big gains could be short-lived. Tata, JLR's parent company, said on Tuesday it is reevaluating its annual profitability target for the British brand. "We are assessing our guidance in light of the recent UK-US trade deal announced on May 8 and will provide an update at our investor day on June 16," the company said in a statement to Reuters . Uncertainty be damned, JLR is moving forward with its ambitious electric vehicle goals. The company just finished work on the Range Rover Electric's production line, with plans to start deliveries later this year. It's retooled its Solihull, UK production facility to build Jaguar EVs like the Jaguar Type 00 . And it's also spent $4 million on an academy to train workers on how to assemble EVs. Jaguar Type 00 Concept Photo by: Jaguar "JLR has ended the year with strong annual and quarterly earnings, including delivering our tenth consecutive profitable quarter and our net debt zero target," CEO Adrian Mardell said in a statement. "We have achieved record sales of Defender, revealed the stunning Jaguar Type 00, and we are preparing to launch the wonderful Range Rover Electric. "This strong and consistent performance, the commitment of our people, partners and clients, and the appeal of our luxury brands will support our response to current global economic challenges, including the evolving global trading environment."
