PC2 Jaguar F-Type to Feature in Project CARS 2

[Paul Jeffrey]

Slightly Mad Studios have confirmed the brand new Jaguar F-Type SVR will feature in the upcoming Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC racing game Project CARS 2.

The F-Type is one of the legendary Jaguar brand's more recent performance cars and will be coming to Project CARS for the first time it has been confirmed by Slightly Mad Studios. The reveal from SMS adds yet another new for the franchise car and is one that is sure to arouse considerable interest from petrol heads looking forward to getting their hands on this stunning machine.

Launched by Jaguar as a direct rival to the main power house performance luxury manufacturers currently dominating the performance car marketplace, the vehicle has quickly helped re-establish Jaguar as a key player after a recent history littered with hit and miss successes over the past decade. Packing an incredible 5.0-litre supercharged V8 running to 567hp and capable of producing 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.5 seconds and to a top speed of 322 km/h (200 mph), the F-Type SVR is the first Jaguar since the now classic XJ220 to reach that magical 200 mph - promising to be one of the most refined driving experience ever produced from the British marque.

Rear wheel drive, ample power, refined sports handling and Jaguar looks... what isn't to like?

In other Project CARS 2 content news the studio have posted another couple of tempting images from the upcoming game, this time showing off a pair of rather attractive Nissans in the form of the road going Nismo GT-R and the race prepared and ridiculously powered 300ZX Turbo, as can be seen below:

We know Project CARS 2 will be shipping with over 170 cars at initial launch and already we have an idea about some of the cars expected to feature within the game.

Yes I am. I can't remember the last time a Jaguar was available to drive in a sim as a piece of official content.

What other Jaguar's would you like to see coming to PC2?

If they have this it would be awesome if they included the Emil Frey Jaguar in the GT3 class. Would be nice to have.

That would be cool, but I would prefer something a bit older, and with two less cylinders...

F-Type my favourite price/performance car.
True successor of the E-Type.
Best car Jaguar has made since the E-Type.
When it came out first i only heard the designation, couldn't believe it's such a good car.
Couldn't believe Jaguar is still capable of those good things...
I'll buy it next (not the SVR though ).
Can't wait to try it out. Pcars really have to get it right with physics and FFB this time, comparable to Assetto Corsa. The cars i have driven IRL feel soo similar compared to AC (e.g. the annoying understeer from the 718 Boxster), while in Pcars 1 every road car feels like understeering ****. I hope they get it right...then i am very much looking forward to my favourite car.
Now Aston 11 please, and it'll be perfect

Really hope they get their stuff together with the performance, especially on AMD GPU's.

Yeah, looks great. Shame it's only a render ...don't you think ?

 

[Mr Latte]

I assumed they are all captured from within the game, could be wrong?

 

[Cote Dazur]

I was under the impression that the newest version of the F type was all wheel drive.

 

[Tobiman]

The SVR is AWD not the type R.

I prefer road cars or exotic racecars instead cars that you can find in all car games.

Well at least the Nissan GT-R is the Nismo one...

Nice to see Rene back .

I guess it's a real in-game shot. They fed us only in-game shots so far and considering pCARS has already the ability to produce some kind of cool shots in the rain, it's definitely the game
