CAR magazine tests the Jaguar i-Pace electric car: full EV review, specs, prices and more
saloons and SUVs. The i-Pace is claimed to be Jaguar’s most torsionally rigid structure at 36kn per degree, and has 50:50 weight distribution. On paper, it bodes well for the ride and handling we’ve come to expect of a Jag.
Jaguar claims a range of 298 miles, and charge times from 0-80% in 40 minutes at a rapid 100kW DC public charger, with AC wallbox charging taking 10 hours. In effect, you plug in when you get home at the end of the day and the i-Pace will be ready and charged up when you wake up in the morning. There’s ample space in the rear seats . Our taller 6ft+ drivers found a good inch of kneeroom and headroom in the back seats if they nipped back there with the driver’s seat set for them. This is a roomy car – the i-Pace might be 50mm shorter than Jag’s F-Pace SUV, but there’s 130mm more wheelbase at almost three metres long, and the front occupants sit well forward, freeing up space in the rear.
In Comfort mode, there’s a kind of synthesised jet-engine whine that rises in line with the speed and it’s even louder in Dynamic mode; it’s alien and odd but does add a sense of drama that’s in proportion to the speed, risk and excitement playing out through the windscreen.Dynamic mode is accessed through a slightly fiddly interface.
Its longest stint in one go between charges was 191 miles to deepest Cornwall using Eco mode. We never pushed our luck further.
