Jaguar I-Pace

The Jaguar I-Pace is a battery-electric crossover SUV produced by British automotive company Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) under their Jaguar marque. The I-Pace was announced in March 2018, and deliveries started in the second half of 2018. It is the first electric SUV from a premium European automaker.

The Jaguar I-Pace was designed by Ian Callum.The concept version of the car, described as a five-seater sports car, was unveiled by JLR at the 2016 Los Angeles Motor Showand shown on-road in London in March 2017. Series production is handled by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria,^] and the production version of the I-Pace was revealed in Graz on 1 March 2018.

Some of the electric drive technology has come out of the Jaguar I-Type electric Formula E racing car programme. and the concentric motors were developed by JLR engineer Dr. Alex Michaelides.

The Jaguar I-Pace has a WLTP-rated range of 290 miles (467 km) and an EPA-rated range of 234 miles (377 km). The car has a wade depth of 500 mm (20 in). The rear boot holds 720 litres (25.3 cu ft), along with 28 litres (1 cu ft) of front boot space. The drag coefficient is 0.29.

The car has all-wheel drive via two motors powered by a 90kWh LG Chem lithium-ion battery comprising 40% of the car's cost, and the battery management system is developed by JLR. Each motor delivers 197 hp (147 kW) and 258 lb⋅ft (350 N⋅m) of torque, for a total power of 395 hp (295 kW) and total torque of 516 lb⋅ft (700 N⋅m).The car is able to sprint from 0-62 mph (0–100 km/h) in 4.8 seconds, and to an electronically limited top speed of 124 mph (200 km/h).

The battery contains 432 pouch cells. It can charge from 0 to 80 percent in 85 minutes using 50kW DC charging, or 45 minutes using a 100kW charger. Home charging with an AC wall box (7kW) achieves the same state of charge in 10 hours.^[1] As the I-Pace has a single-phase AC charger, it is slow to charge outside fast charge areas; with a one-hour charge, 7kW charging adds around 30 kilometres (19 mi) of range.

The car comes with a smartphone app which can locate the car, report on its locking, alarming, and charging status, and start it preheating. The app cannot switch on the windscreen or rear window heaters.
