Project 8’s body has been extensively redesigned to offer aerodynamic performance essential for a 322kmh car. This includes an adjustable deep front splitter, rear diffuser and a large adjustable rear aero wing. The wing’s angle of attack can be fine tuned either to reduce drag or maximise downforce – producing up to 122kg of downforce once you reach 299kmh.

The supercharged V8 engine and lightweight body assure astonishing performance. But stopping power is just as important for a 322kmh car. Project 8 has the largest and most technologically advanced brakes ever fitted to a Jaguar – vast 400mm carbon ceramic discs with huge 6 piston calipers up front. They’re light too, saving 18kg.

All Wheel Drive ensures superb responsiveness, traction and agility. No Jaguar feels more ‘alive’. The handling is rear-drive biased, like a two-door supercar. The Intelligent Driveline Dynamics includes an Electronic Active Differential, as part of the advanced computer-controlled drive set-up. For ultimate performance, Project 8’s uniquely tuned version of Adaptive Dynamics includes a new Track Mode.

Customers who select the track-oriented 2 seat version of Project 8 will benefit from carbon fibre racing seats, fitted with a four-point competition harness, affixed to a retention hoop. The 4 seat model features special lightweight magnesium-framed performance front seats with Ebony leather and Oyster contrast stitching, throughout.

Project 8 is offered in 3 standard colours, as well as five optional SVO Premium Palette colours. To make the car truly unique – a genuine one-off – choose the Bespoke by SVO edition. This includes a choice of 10,000 further body and accent colours plus bespoke racing-inspired decals, painted brake calipers, commissioning plaque, and much more.

The special lightweight forged alloy wheels are stronger and lighter than conventional cast alloy, delivering superior handling. The wheel’s unique design reduces drag by 7 counts, while specially developed Michelin Sport Cup 2 tyres combine outstanding grip with comfort – making them perfect for road or track.
