The Jaguar E-PACE - What you need to know

Jaguar introduced the new compact performance SUV, the Jaguar E-PACE on its World Premiere on the 13th July 2017. Jaguar E-PACE combines sports car design and agility with everyday SUV practicality. There’s never been a compact SUV like this before.

Starting at £28,420, the Jaguar E-PACE price means it is more affordable to a wider range of customers. Whether that be for families, young couples, or elderly customers who are looking for more space in a vehicle. The Jaguar E-PACE was designed to be a Jaguar for active people who need space and practicality but see no reason to compromise on performance. Its proportions, stance and lines express this as a driver’s car, while the interior offers true Jaguar levels of luxury and sportiness.


E-PACE is a practical Jaguar with a playful twist. Throughout the interior, you will find details inspired by the Jaguar design team’s favourite objects or experiences. These small but beautiful details have been created to reflect the individual character and personality of the E-PACE, and like many premium products, they demonstrate unwavering attention to detail. From the tiny Jaguar and cub on the windscreen to the ever-so-subtle Jaguar print on the stowage mat, these hidden details are designed to put a smile on your face, once you notice them of course!

And it doesn’t stop there, the Jaguar E‑PACE interior has class‑leading stowage. The deep centre console has removable cupholders where you will also find space for a smartphone, along with a secure tablet holder. The large glovebox is great for all those essentials you want to keep close at hand and both deep front door bins have been sculpted to carry a range of items. In the boot, there are 577 litres of luggage space or the equivalent of six carry-on cases. That’s with the rear seats in place. As well as a suite of connected technology and safety features, such as Touch Pro infotainment system which allows you to touch, pinch, zoom and scroll through all your contacts, music, vehicle, and navigation options. Two USB points in the central cubby box, which means you can connect a phone or tablet to the infotainment system. And of course, passengers are not ignored in the connected world of the E-PACE. With five USB connectors and further 12-volt charging points in the front, the centre console and even the boot, no one will miss out.

Wherever in the world you might be, InControl Remote allows you to stay in touch with your vehicle. If you’ve forgotten where you’ve parked, your app will help you find it and if it’s cold outside, you can pre-set the climate control in the cabin to ensure it’s ready for your arrival. The Jaguar E-PACE will also recognise the approaching driver, based on both a key fob and smartphone Bluetooth signal. The vehicle will then adjust the seat, climate and infotainment system based on the driver’s normal preference. Jaguar E-PACE is also packed full of active and passive safety technologies that keep you and your family safe. Head-Up Display helps you keep your eyes on the road, while the forward-facing camera detects anything you might miss. In the event of a collision, six airbags and two ISOFIX points protect occupants while a pedestrian airbag reduces injury to others. Jaguar E-PACE also achieved a five-star Euro NCAP rating in 2017 confirming that this is one of the safest vehicles on the market.

If it looks like a Jaguar, it should drive like a Jaguar. The E-PACE won’t disappoint anyone here. The Jaguar E-PACE features sports car-derived AWD technology and an all-Ingenium line-up of petrol and diesel engines. Riding on architecture and technology developed especially for a car of its size, proportion, and purpose. The fully-independent suspension system has a sophisticated multi‑link rear suspension design and added to Jaguar’s range of awards by winning ‘great-to-ride-in-even-better-to-drive’. Advanced driving technologies including Active Driveline and optional Adaptive Dynamicsensures E‑PACE delivers an agile, controlled ride. With more space inside and more space for the wheels to travel outside. The E-PACE is a compact SUV in more than just name.

Fun fact: Jaguar E-PACE set an official GUINNESS WORLD RECORD title for the ‘Furthest Barrel Roll in a Production Vehicle’.

Both the E-PACE and E-PACE R-Dynamic are available with S, SE and HSE specification packs and a choice of five powertrains, including three diesel or petrol Ingenium engines. Or you have the option for the Jaguar E-PACE Chequered Flag Special Edition. A celebration of Jaguar’s sporting character. Eye-catching details throughout, such as Ebony grained leather with Frame Red stitching and an exclusive Photon Red exterior paint option are just some to mention. A powered tailgate and Keyless Entry make everyday life flow easier. Chequered Flag badges mixed with a blend of luxurious materials and crafted finishes throughout, add desirable luxury to this distinctive Jaguar model.


And so, that is why we believe Jaguar E-PACE is a perfect 21st-century car: connected, modern and practical, and utterly engaging to drive. It’s beautiful to look at, fun to get to know and possessing a soul and integrity that can only come from Jaguar.
