This special edition of the Jaguar XKR combines two option packs that feature in the 2011 model year and has an increased top speed of 280km/h, becoming the fastest XK ever.

The XKR is equipped with the same 5.0-litre supercharged AJ-V8 Gen III R engine that delivers 510PS (510bhp SAE), 625Nm of torque, that featured in the 2009 model range, but thanks to the Speed Pack top speed climbs from an electronically limited 155mph (250km/h) to 174mph (280km/h). The Special Edition also features a six-speed automatic transmission with steering-wheel mounted paddles, lightweight aluminium body structure and a range of computer-controlled systems including Active Differential Control and Adaptive Dynamics.

Although it had a significant increase in power and performance, according to Jaguar the XKR Special Edition has a fuel economy that can be compared to the previous generation of XKR. The brand justifies it with the combination of the powertrain efficiency and the XKR lightweight architecture.

The Special Edition of the XKR is a combined result of two new option packs for the 2011 XK: the Speed and Black Pack. These two have been joined in one single model and were presented at the Geneva Motor Show 2010. The optional packs are also available separately.
