Space, pace and grace: Jaguar’s sleek entry into the EV segment

The I-Pace by Jaguar packs sports-car performance into a 5-seat electric SUV with brisk acceleration, seamless power delivery and instant responses
The luxury vehicle space seems to be the other EV segment heating up in India. Mercedes launched its all-electric EQC last year, Audi is set to launch the e-Tron SUV in India this year, and now Jaguar brings the I-Pace. With a sticker price of ₹1.06-1.12 crore (ex-showroom, India), the I-Pace is priced on par with rivals; but just how different is Jaguar’s EV to the competition? Let us find out. Built on a bespoke EV platform and designed to make the most of the packaging freedom electric cars allow, the I-Pace is a Jaguar like no other, in more ways than one. Simply put, the styling is radical. While there are some familiar Jaguar elements such as the ‘raised eyebrow’ headlights and square grille, the stubby bonnet, cab-forward design and large passenger cell are a big departure from the traditional SUV silhouette. Even the rake of the rear windscreen is a break from the norm. All in all, the Jag looks futuristic and stands out.More Related News
