This is the newly refreshed Jaguar F-Type. And to make it clear from the outset, the most important takeaway from the newly refreshed Jaguar F-Type range is that the supercharged V6 now makes 400bhp. Without a manual gearbox.The newly minted (and imaginatively titled) 400 Sport" is the new sweet spot in the F-Type range or at least it would have been, were it available with a manual gearbox.As you may have already gleaned, there"s another 20bhp on offer from the supercharged 3.0-litre, which would have been lovely to team with the six-speed manual. Not that we"re harping on or anything.The 400 Sport also benefits from a "Super Performance braking system" and "Configurable Dynamics", which we assume means "good brakes and adjustable drive modes". Jag says the 400 Sport will only be available for one year, hopefully to be replaced with the manual-only 425 Sport. Hey, we can dream.
