Jaguar I-pace,
a silent beast
ready to pounce !
T
he first all electric SUV from Jaguar is coming and it is
bound to set a few hearts racing. Boasting Jaguar-
designed motors with a combined 294kW and 696Nm,
plus state-of-the-art 90kWh lithium-ion battery, the
I-Pace will not disappoint. Innovative design, instant
power delivery and ingenious tech help this newcomer
deliver performance not experienced before, while
catering for a cleaner future.
Space, pace, and grace Your new adventure companion
Staying true to the Jaguar DNA, this beauty offers spacious
interiors without compromising on an alluring design which is
also aero-efficient. The cabin is comfortable and airy with a
panoramic, heat absorbing roof. Driving electric vehicles often
comes at the price of sacrificing the aesthetics. Not with the
I-Pace; dramatic curves and muscular haunches make it look
like it is ready to sprint into action. Four-wheel drive provided by the dual motors produce 349
bhp and 513 lb/ft of torque which hurls the I-Pace forward.
Delivering 60 mph in 4.5 seconds and 100 mph in 4.8 seconds,
it can leave a lot of sports cars in the dust, which makes driving
it, a raw thrill. Curious on its off-road capabilities? Integral Link
rear suspension and Advanced double wishbone in the front
make this SUV a reliable companion, delivering stabilising grip
and handling. The self-levelling set up on the I pace will also
be useful in treacherous weather conditions like heavy rainfall.
Join the electric revolution
Lending itself to an active lifestyle, this modern EV requires
roughly 12 hours of charge (through the wall box at home)
to be at 80 %. For us drivers here, who typically cover 40-
60 km daily, a full charge once a week should be enough to
keep it going. ‘’With zero tailpipe emissions, no CO2 and no
particulates, it moves us dramatically closer to our vision of a
clean, safe and sustainable future.” said Dr Ralf Speth, CEO
Jaguar Land Rover.
Be ready for engaging driving dynamics, everyday usability and
comfort and a unique balance of ride, refinement and control
with this high performance EV.
