Jaguar, Audi, Mercedes and Tesla are currently making mainstream electric SUVs, while Tesla doesn’t quite need a performance department with a 0-100kmph time of around 3 seconds, Mercedes confirmed AMG will be working with their ‘EQ’ line of cars and Audi has been spotted testing an ‘S’ version of their E-Tron SUV.

Jaguar’s SVR division might arguably be the wildest ‘sport-arm’ of any of the top companies including AMG and BMW’s M sport division, take the bonkers Jaguar Project 8 for example. So it only made sense for the team to be let loose on the I-Pace electric SUV, and Jaguar agrees.

Jaguar confirmed they will be making an I-Pace SVR, just not quite yet. The company has other things on its plate that will generate better sales figures, but they will definitely be making a faster version of their electric SUV. The standard I-Pace has a 388bhp and 694Nm of torque which is no slouch, sprinting to the tonne in four and a half seconds and goes on to an electronically-limited top speed of 200kmph. The I-Pace SVR will be designed in Jaguar's new design studio in Gaydon, UK.

Perhaps as much in love with Porsche 911s as he is with sneakers (and good food), Karan claims his love for cars started before he learnt to speak, even though there is a rumour around the office that he fell asleep while attending his first ever Grand Prix! He likes to find weird quirks about cars and dedicates a fairly large space in his head to random car facts and an equally large space in his heart for cars with cool specs. He came across this career path by chance, and going by how excited he gets as soon as new metal rolls into the office, he seems to be loving everyday of his journey as an automotive journalist.
