Lister previews 322km/h Stealth SUV

Lister Motor Company has released a teaser video of its forthcoming Jaguar F-PACE SVR-based Stealth.

It's already been revealed that the Lister Stealth will produce 497kW – 93kW more than the standard SVR -- and its downright evil soundtrack can be heard as the supercharged 5.0-litre V8 revs in this video.

As well as being able to crack 200mph (322km/h), the Lister Stealth should also be capable of hitting 97km/h in less than 3.5 seconds, making it about as quick as the Lamborghini Urus and Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, both of which can hit 100km/h in 3.6 seconds.

The new video also gives us our first glimpse at all the hard work Lister engineers have done to keep the Stealth stable at speeds usually inhabited by supercars.

This include a new redesigned front bumper that incorporates new air intakes and carbon-fibre front splitter.

At the rear, there's also a larger rear diffuser that neatly packages the angry V8's quad exhaust outlets.Combined with a tweaked rear spoiler, it's clear Lister has worked hard to reduce drag to improve stability and increase the top speed.

As well as revising the aero, Lister is likely to have retuned the suspension to cope with the extra performance.

Reigning in all that speed is a set of huge carbon ceramic brake discs and large callipers that have already been teased.

Finally, Lister has also cut the kerb weight of the standard SVR by using carbon-fibre body parts, although the British car-maker is yet to reveal where exactly all that weight has been saved.

Inside, we know from previous renderings that the special F-PACE gets a bespoke re-trimmed interior that uses higher-quality leather and levels of craftsmanship usually found on more expensive hand-made luxury limos.

The Stealth isn't the first Jaguar F-PACE SVR-based model from Lister, the former race-car maker that first started business more than 65 years ago. It follows the Lister LFP, which was released in late 2018 and also packed a 497kW V8 powerhouse.

There's no word on when deliveries will begin, or if the Stealth will be available in Australia, but in the UK prices are expected to start at £120,000 ($A240,000).
