Land Rover Tipped To Develop Hardcore Version Of Defender V8

Land Rover launched the new Defender V8 a couple of weeks ago, and it is already said to be working on a hardcore variant of the off-roader. This new version is tipped to come from Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations unit and while stopping short of confirming the model, SVO boss Michael van der Sande told Car Sales that the new Defender V8 doesn’t carry any SV badging because it doesn’t have the right “amount of technical changes you would expect of an SV product.” JLR purchased Bowler last year in what van der Sande described as a “very intentional” move as the automaker was “slightly underrepresented in performance off-roading.” Thanks to Bowler’s expertise with making the Defender even more capable off the beaten path, JLR is now in the perfect position to capitalize on the growing demand for performance off-roaders.

Tech Tidbit: What is a Flat-Plane Crankshaft?

Why does the arrangement of the crankshaft affect characteristics such as airflow and engine weight? Most V8 engines employ what is known as a cross-plane crankshaft. The crank throws are set at 90-degree angles from one another so that the eight pistons rise and fall in staggered fashion to provide a smooth-running engine. The resulting rumbly exhaust note is the signature sound of the classic American muscle car V8, idling at a traffic light in anticipation of an impromptu drag race. These engines provide the smooth running characteristics that drivers like, but they have some limitations in all-out performance applications. That is why serious sports cars like the Ferrari SF90 and its predecessor models do not use a cross-plane crankshaft in their V8s. Similarly, race cars have also long relied on flat-plane crankshafts, which space their throws 180 degrees apart so that they all lie in a single, flat plane.

Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo SV is an electric race car for the virtual world

Jaguar has revealed an electric endurance race car designed for the Gran Turismo video game. Called Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo SV, it has been designed with aerodynamic efficiency in mind, which contributes to its 255mph top speed. Helping it reach those heady figures is a 1,876bhp electric powertrain, with one motor in each wheel, providing a total torque figure of 3,360Nm. The streamlined car can go from 0-60mph (0-97km/h) in just 1.65 seconds, but it has been built with long-distance racing as a key consideration. Jamal Hameedi, engineering director at Jaguar SV, said the team developed “a virtual electric car which really could compete successfully in the extremes of 24-hour endurance racing.
