But 2 weeks ago I was offered a 2021 i-pace hse which had just under £10,000 of extras, like the upholstery is white seats, ghost fitted, not a plastic dashboard or interior, some cameras and other stuff which I cant remember. I got it for £23,000. Mileage was 27,350 which doesn't matter much on electrics vehicles and one lady owner. Its my first electric car and all I can say is WoW and the power takes me some getting used to.

    Question for you. How does the preconditioning work. Does the car need to be charged to 100% then it will start? Dont have the app didn't see the need for it. I also do not have level two at home but have plenty of superchargers. Noticed that it was only charging at 14kw so my question to you is how can I make the battery heat up while driving to get it to its optimal temp if I'm out and about. Look forward to hearing from you

    • @electricfocus1710
      @electricfocus1710 Місяць тому

      Hi, Yes, the Jaguar I-PACE needs to be at least 100% charged and plugged into a wall for at least 30 minutes before departure for battery preconditioning to work. There is no function to precondition out on the road like a Tesla unfortunately. When you say you were only getting 12kW was this on a charger over 100kWs? If so never seen that slow unless the car was nearly at 100%?

    • @jimcabezas9576

    EV's are the future. However allow me to extend my sympathies to EV buyers who have chosen the Jaguar I-pace, specifically the 2019 model. After 5 recalls for battery issues there is news today of JLR buying back almost 3000 cars. It could be worse I suppose, you could be one of the unfortunate ones who have had their vehicles go up in flames, in some cases burning their homes as well. I fully support the EV revolution. I am the proud owner of a 2020 Tesla Model Y (long range dual motor). No issues due to vehicle design or overall infrastructure. I am rather surprised that the legacy auto makers can't seem to get it right. A few Asian brands seem to make a reasonable product but American and European (inc. British) makers are definitely struggling. I believe this to be more of a Culture rather than Technology issue. So , Go EVs. Buy a Tesla. Or a Kia or perhaps one of the better Chinese brands. The mission to transform transportation to sustainable energy depends on it.

    My next door neighbour bought a 19 reg i-pace much less than a year ago for £29k. He said what a bargain it was. Not so much of a bargain now after depreciating about another £12k since he bought it. Just think about the cost per mile he is paying. The astronomical depreciation doesn't stop, just because you buy it.

You can see the latest software version on the car and check for updates and it should tell you if it needs updating. You can always ask JLR to confirm what the latest should be if in doubt.

    Nice video. How widespread are charging issues? I see lots of threads about people not being able to charge their car even on three different brands of home chargers. But L3 works because it skips the AC>DC conversion of L2. I really want this to be my first EV as a used car but after totaling my XJ, all my friends are saying, "One rule: anything but a Jaguar" because they watched my struggles with the XJ. If I try an "I'll show them" and end up being unable to charge, repair, or sell the car, I will be given hell for the rest of my life.

    They are a bargain up until they need to be repaired. Extended warranties are every expensive. Like $1600 a year, and unlikely to find one at that rate after 10 years. But ya, you can get an $86k car for $26k. Buy pray it doesn't break outside warranty
