Default I heard the hub carrier was upgraded in 2021 in the R.

Can someone confirm this? Also, was it an upgrade to what the SVR already has or an improvement over the SVR?

Thanks,

The R's rear suspension was tweaked for the 2021 model year, see this article: https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2...-cat-grows-up/
Mainly this bit:

"Now, about that rear end. At all four corners the electronic variable dampers have been retuned, and new springs offer up new spring rates. The front and rear anti-roll bars are also redesigned. In the rear specifically, the upper control arms are new, as are the upper and lower ball joints, and the knuckles are stiffer. The electronic power steering has been recalibrated, the wheels all feature new wheel bearings, the active rear electronic differential has been reworked, the DSC (stability control) is revamped, and the active AWD torque split is more rear-biased. The rear tires are wider (from 295 to 305), too. Put briefly, the 2021 F-Type R's kinematics have been thoroughly reworked, with a majority of the effort going into the rear end."

How much of that is SVR carry-over I don't know.
