Jaguar I-Pace (2018-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
One of the very best EVs to drive	Disappointing real-world range
Combines speed with refinement	Doesn't charge as quickly as some rivals
Rock-bottom tax bills for company drivers	Firm ride on biggest wheels

Quick Summary

The Jaguar I-Pace, launched in 2018, was the British brand's first pure electric vehicle, offering 396bhp and permanent four-wheel drive. It targets premium electric SUVs like the Audi E-tron and Tesla Model Y. While its official WLTP range is 292 miles, real-world driving typically yields around 240 miles in warm conditions, dropping to 180 miles on motorways or in colder weather. Charging from a 7kW home wall box takes about 14 hours, with rapid DC CCS charging adding 100 miles in 45-60 minutes (50kW) or 30 minutes (100kW).

The I-Pace truly excels in driving dynamics, delivering a playful and enthusiastic experience that makes it one of the best sports SUVs, electric or otherwise, with a 0-62mph time of 4.8 seconds. It's also refined and comfortable, though ride comfort can be firmer on larger wheels. Practicality is decent with a 577-litre boot and a 'frunk' for cables, accommodating two adults comfortably in the rear. Running costs are low thanks to competitive new pricing, cheaper home charging (9-13p per mile), free congestion zone entry, and no VED, with servicing every two years or 21,000 miles.

Best for: Drivers seeking a thrilling and luxurious electric sports-SUV, those who appreciate engaging driving dynamics, company drivers benefiting from low tax bills, and buyers looking for advanced tech and comfort.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising maximum real-world range that closely matches official figures, those needing the fastest charging speeds available, or individuals sensitive to a firmer ride on larger wheels.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the I-Pace if: You're looking for one of the best-driving electric SUVs, value its blend of speed and refinement, or benefit from low tax bills and congestion zone exemption.

Consider alternatives if: You need a real-world range closer to official figures, faster charging capabilities, or a consistently softer ride, especially on larger wheels.

Competitive Position: The Jaguar I-Pace (2018-present) stands out as a milestone electric vehicle, offering an exceptionally thrilling and luxurious driving experience that often surpasses its petrol counterparts. While its real-world range and charging speeds might lag behind some newer rivals, its engaging dynamics, premium interior, and low running costs (especially for company car drivers) make it a highly desirable choice in the premium electric SUV segment. It offers a compelling alternative to the Audi E-tron and Mercedes-Benz EQC, and a sportier, more driver-focused option compared to the Tesla Model X.
