Video Summary
Here is the summary of the video review:- The I-Pace is described as a modern SUV that is elegant in design.
- The car features two electric motors and four-wheel drive.
- The false front grill is noted as a design opportunity missed, as it serves no functional purpose.
- The reviewed I-Pace has some extras included, such as a panoramic roof and 22-inch wheels.
- The S model, the standard entry model, has the same drive train as other I-Pace models, only different in spec.
- The HSE spec model costs approximately £74,000.
- The black metallic paint is a £700 upgrade, while the aluminum weave carbon fiber interior finish is a £1,300 upgrade.
- 22-inch wheels add an additional £2,400.
- The panoramic roof is an extra £960.
- With all the extras, this model costs £87,167.
- The car has both a front and a rear boot.
- The car lacks a rear window wiper, which is considered to be a letdown for all-weather use.
- On highways, there is no regen effect because the car is at constant speed, eating through battery charge.
- When electric cars become more popular, it seems that finding a public charger may be difficult.
- Running around the local area with the I-Pace is cost-effective because using the home charger results in an approximate cost of 5 pence per mile.
- A known issue is the use of extra power for warming the cabin.
- Electric cars are quick, though it seems that most people do not utilize the extra speed.
- It is better to have the added range than the speed, according to the reviewer.
- Electric car driving is best suited for stop and go city situations.
- An electric car is not engaging to drive.
- It is better to choose a plug-in hybrid for alternative transport.
