Jaguar is celebrating the 75th anniversary of its sports cars with a new iteration of the F-Type for what is its final model year.

First unveiled in October last year but now presented for the U.S. market, the new 2024 Jaguar F-Type 75 and F-Type R 75 come outfitted with a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that delivers 444 hp and 428 lb-ft (580 Nm) in standard guise or 567 hp and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque in the flagship F-Type R 75. The standard model is available in either rear- or all-wheel drive while the F-Type R 75 is offered solely with all-wheel drive.

Both models also feature an electronic active rear differential, allowing the standard model to hit 60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.4 seconds and a 177 mph (285 km/h) top speed. Meanwhile, the flagship variant hits 60 mph (96 km/h) in 3.5 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 186 mph (300 km/h).

The duo come standard with a switchable active exhaust system and a Quiet Start function that activates electrically actuated bypass valves in the rear silencer.

Few mechanical modifications have been made to the special 75th anniversary models, although the F-Type R 75 does sport revised upper ball joints that increase camber and toe stiffness. The pair also come standard with Jaguar’s Adaptive Dynamics system that uses continuously variable dampers.

“For 75 years Jaguar has been renowned for producing extraordinary sports cars that deliver performance, agility and maximum driver reward,” Jaguar Land Rover chief designer Matthew Beaven said. “The F-TYPE special editions hold true to these principles, adding unique interior and exterior design details to celebrate this lineage before Jaguar becomes an all-electric brand from 2025.”

U.S. order books for the F-Type 75 have already opened and the first customer deliveries are scheduled to begin in spring 2023. Prices start at $77,900.
