Video Summary
Here is the summary of the video:- The Jaguar I-Pace beat BMW, Audi, and Mercedes in bringing a premium electric SUV to the market.
- The exterior updates to the model include new paint choices and larger alloy wheels.
- There is a new chrome-style finish to the grill and the option for a bright pack, which gives a chrome surround, shiny door mirrors and window surrounds.
- Air is directed through the grill to the bonnet vent, which then accelerates airflow over the wipers on to the base of the windscreen, thereby reducing aerodynamic drag.
- The flow of air is powerful enough at the rear of the car that you do not require a rear windscreen wiper.
- 360-degree 3D camera is now standard, plus an optional clear-sight digital rear view mirror.
- Both front seats are heated as standard, and there is wireless phone charging. The optional Meridian sound system now has two extra speakers. Cabin air ionization system.
- There is an updated Pivi Pro infotainment system: 10-inch top screen and a 5-inch lower screen, which is standard only on the S model.
- CarPlay and Android Auto are standard.
- Navigation system and menu layout are revamped.
- There are performance changes in the vehicle. Still a 90-kilowatt hour battery pack, two electric motors, making it all-wheel drive, with 395-brake horsepower. 0-60 miles per hour in 4.5 seconds.
- The Jaguar is agile on a twisty road.
- Claimed range is 292 miles. In the test it measured 253 miles from a full charge.
- You can charge the I-Pace at 11 kilowatts; from 0 to 100% in about nine hours.
- If you rapid charge the vehicle you can get a 0 to 80% charge in about 40 minutes.
- It is important to note, though, that Tesla has a better charger network than Jaguar.
- The iX3 offers even better handling than the I-Pace.
- The I-Pace interior has great materials, but not always the best fit and finish.
- There is enough room in the back for six-footers. However, an E-Tron is more open and spacious. No 7-seat version in the i-Pace. The Model X is the only 7-seat electric SUV.
- It starts from 65,000 to 75,000 pounds.
- Overall, the I-Pace is a pleasant, comfortable, enjoyable experience to drive. However, for long-term performance, range, and drive, the iX3 offers a slightly better value. The I-Pace is recommended and great and a bold electrical future for Jaguar.
