Visitors to the Nürburgring Nordschleife in Germany can now experience the thrill of the fastest production four-door car to lap the legendary circuit as the ultimate Jaguar XE SV Project 8 with Track Pack becomes the latest Jaguar Race Taxi.

Jaguar SVO Project 8 is the most extreme performance road-legal Jaguar ever, designed, engineered and hand-assembled by Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations. The 600PS 5.0-litre supercharged Jaguar V8 sedan beat some of the world’s fastest two-door coupes and supercars to set a record lap time of 7min 21.23sec.
Thrill-seekers will get a full demonstration of Jaguar Project 8’s exceptional performance and handling as Jaguar’s professional drivers take them on a lap of ‘The Green Hell’ at speeds in excess of 250km/h (155mph)
Jaguar XE SV Project 8 demonstrated its incredible mix of raw speed and dynamic precision by setting a Nürburgring lap record last year. Now, visitors to this sensational circuit – which played a pivotal role in the development of the ultimate new Jaguar XE – will get the chance to experience the full track capability of the world’s fastest four-door sedan.”

The Nürburgring was an essential part of the Jaguar XE SV Project 8’s development process, with Jaguar’s team of engineers and drivers at the Jaguar SV Development Center, located at the circuit, honing the most track-focused car Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations has ever produced.

The Jaguar XE, with its dynamic design and aluminum-intensive monocoque, forms the perfect foundation for the enhanced performance of Jaguar Project 8. Taking the already agile and responsive handling of the Jaguar XE, extensive performance enhancements enable Project 8 to sprint from 0-100km/h in 3.7 seconds (0-60mph in 3.3 seconds) and reach a top speed of 322km/h (200mph).

With world-class motorsport technology throughout, Jaguar Project 8 has carbon fiber panels, adjustable aerodynamics, a unique suspension setup with adjustable ride height and camber and is the first road car with F1-style ceramic wheel bearings. It’s also the first Jaguar with a dedicated Track Mode, which activates electronic calibration settings tailored to circuit use.

The two-seat Track Pack-equipped Jaguar Project 8 Race Taxi joins the 575PS four-seat Jaguar XJR575 Race Taxi – the fastest and most powerful Jaguar XJ in the luxury saloon’s 50-year history.

Jaguar Race Taxi experiences are available until the circuit closes in mid-November
