Still looks fantastic
Jag only sold 4,874 new
I Pace worldwide in 2023 !!
That was down from only
7,307 worldwide sales in 2022…
So much new competitor product etc
And everyone knows it’s ceasing production by early 2025…
Why spend a lot of $$$ on a vehicle that’s about to be discontinued…
Just get one used for a steal of price like I did then
Because it's still a great car? You buying it has nothing to do with future production, what if they kept producing it but redesigned it like tesla did with with M3, what does that do for you?
@@trqster I gotta know. How much did you get it for?? Looking at either this or the model Y
@@uclan Got mine almost brand new for 40k EUR thereabouts. Cost new +70k EUR
2019 First Edition, 30k miles $30k about 3 months ago@@uclan
Buying this car used is the best option. £20k for a 2020 with around 40,000 on the clock. Bargain.
That's why I'm watching this 😊
@@davidmundowyahoo7839 exactly. 32000€ in Spain for a 20.000 km unit with extras. I am considering it, due to my daily routine is 32 km (16+16) from home to work, and I can charge it in my own home at a ridiculous price because of social helps due to having 3 children in Spain, I have got a 65% off in electricity bills. And solar panels, also. Family travels on weekends are done with a petrol Tarraco. Why shouldn't I buy one of these EV Jags???
That's a huge amount of depreciation ... I agree, second hand is the way to go
They’re not Jaguars. The E Type and the MK 2 are Jaguars. I picked up a beautiful E Type roadster BRG full leather interior matching carpets. A bargain at £150,000. No TAX needed.
@@Delapray cool dream.
I love the screen placement vs some of the newer cars with the giant distracting screens on the dash
Catastrophic depreciation aside, if you aren't doing long journeys much and can charge at home these are a great second-hand buy at the moment!
Electric cars are like the first pentium computers. Every year, they get faster, cheaper, and their power density increases. Then there's the Jaguar I-Pace, which is still running 6 year old stats with 6 ear old prices.
They actually bumped the prices last year, it used to be competitive with Model Y, which is simply ridiculous considering how different the two cars are. It's priced similarly to Model S, BMW iX and Polestar 3 right now, and still cheaper than Model X or Porche Tycan. So if you are shopping in that segment then it's still priced very competitively.
I see the EV market just like when we had CD, DVDs, Blue-Rays and then streaming started getting noticed. It was a mess back then just like the EV market now.
@@EugeneTolmachev But it's got very poor performance, practicality, and charging rates for such a price.
@@DonLee1980 I'd argue your definition of performance and importance of charging rates, the practicality is subjective.
@@EugeneTolmachev Right... so you're saying that performance and charge rates are subjective, because slower could be better than faster???
Only recently been looking at the I-Pace after I saw what a relative bargain the early ones are now on the used market - and because the new model is almost unchanged, they still look fresh. It looks a fantastic car and I love that it has buttons! It looks like a premium car inside and not like a laptop on wheels.There's no way I'd even consider a Tesla, but I"m seriously considering a used I-PACE as my next car.
I've got a 2019 I-Pace that's only done 20,000. It breaks my heart when I see it's value now. But it looks and drives like new, and it's amazing to drive. I still love it. It has to be the bargain of the century as a second hand car. I would recommend.
Yup, got a 2019 first edition with 15k miles in Los Angeles for $40k. It has every option so new it was $90k! I’ve been driving it a lot and so far has been super reliable too. The biggest issues with JLR is drivetrain and since that is made by magna it doesn’t share the same woes as other JLR products.
As an owner I thought the video was a really good review of where the I-Pace sits in 2024. The only thing I would challenge is the efficiency stats. My average over 4 years is 2.7mpkWh.
That’s still dreadful compared to competitors… model Y I get 4 miles or more per kWh, this is avg over 1 year
@@NickLiang Meh, (overnight) electricity is dirt cheap, my Ioniq averaged 4.8 over 3 years but my Ipace looks great, drives well and is incredibly comfortable.
@@andrewhowe4266 what’s that in mpg equivalent please?
@@UA-camShepherd There are a lot of variables in that as it involves prices, your use case and whether we are talking imperial or US gallons. If I calculate it today using UK prices and measurements it varies from a best case of 227mpg to worst case of 22mpg. The best case is 100% off-peak charging at home and the worst case is using public rapid chargers. My own use case is probably >200mpg. I think there is an argument to including charging losses too. That would reduce those figures by 12%.
@@andrewhowe4266 thank you.
The fact this thing is still on sale without any technical updates since 2018 is just mad. As is anyone who consideres buying this thing these days.
This "thing" is an amazing car to buy as a used model - cheap and absolutely gorgeous piece of a "thing"
Love my I Pace. ..bought mine second hand a year ago. It looks great and drives brilliantly . In all honesty right now I would not want anything else sitting in my garage !
The depreciation isn’t great
I totally agree. I bought mine a few months ago and love it! It has depreciated a lot in Norway, but that only means it’s a great value for money car used. It uses to much electrons, but the ride is great. Especially in properwinter conditions, as we’ve been having in Norway this season👏🏻
Looking to buy a used i pace myself and have seen late 2022/early 2023 very high spec versions for well under £40k i.e. less than half new price. Sure, there are more efficient, faster charging EV's but if you want a GREAT driving experience combined with luxurious comfort and useful tech at around £35k to £39k what EV alternatives are there?
We bought our I Pace 10 months ago. It is an absolute fantastic car and we love it! The one thing I love is that it has knobs and switches to control climate, heated windscreen and rear screen and many other functions unlike some EVs where everything is controlled through a large iPad type screen. It is Our first EV, there is a steep learning curve on owning and running an EV, but fortunately there is plenty of good UA-cam resources to help. The one thing I don’t like is the depreciation especially after Sunak pushed back the date to 2035 of only new EVs being sold.
They are going for £18k to £20k at 3.5 years old, 40k miles. Looks a "bargain"at that price.
However there's the new super mini mini Squad Solar 2 seater for only 6k new. Which has a rechargeable solar panel roof system that adds 20 miles a day to the battery. Literally a free to use city car. Very different car but it's also expected to seriously disrupt the market.
It's 6 x more efficient than this Jaguar.
Expected to cost about the same as renting a bicycle when rented through apps in cities.
Needed update on efficiency and tech, fallen way behind competition! Can't sell on looks alone when range isn't enough
Range is good enough for 90% of the people out there - I charge mine on average a couple of times per week on normal driving conditions, as most people will.
The real world range with my 2022 I-Pace has been about 220 miles. Which is about the same as my previous 2019 Tesla Model 3 (despite its advertised 320 miles of range. Tesla loves to over-promise and underdeliver.) What needs updated is the charging speed. Although that only matters on long road trips. Day to day, I-Pace is still the best all-around EV on the market in my opinion.
@@AppleExplainedif I was looking to buy today, should I expect speed to increase with the opening of the Tesla network? Love this car but I do road trip a lot. Debating between an older I pace and a 22 polestar. Sounds like similar range in 2024 but slower charging would be another knock.
@@disambigujason sadly, even though Magna suggested some charging improvements over the years with their internal i-Pace prototypes, Jaguar decided not to bite on changes. So no, even when these have access to Tesla Superchargers next year(?) via adapters in the US, they will be stuck at 100 kW.
if you want something similar, but a bit more updated, I'd take a look at the Polestar 3.
Just parting company with my ipace after 5 years. It’s been an absolute joy undoubtedly my best car yet. Makes Audi, Mercedes etc very non event.
Why did you decide to part with it? and also what other car did u get instead?
@@adrianfam8098 I would have another one in a heartbeat! Unfortunately my partners MS is progressing and the sill height at 49-50 cm was becoming very difficult for her. Waited for jaguar to launch new vehicles but in the end had to move on. A box ticking exercise, hatchback for mobility stuff, wide doors, low sill height and electric. After much testing the Hyundai ioniq5 ticked all the boxes, sill height 40cm. I thought I’d hate it but everyday it surprises really rather good. My only real gripe is it’s very relaxed steering ( being polite) but getting use to it. The saying that ‘nothing drives like a jaguar ‘is very true. Maybe next time jaguar will have launched a new range , 🤞
@@grahammorrow4314 Ahh im sorry to hear that about your partner :( Wishes her/him all well. Im in the process of looking to get an EV and ive been looking at the i-pace, mach-e and tesla. The only thing that makes me abit unsure is that this car uses much power and doesnt rly hold the range it promises? like it promises 450 km range but realisticly its more like 350. While u get used tesla for cheaper and they go around 550 Km.. Im unsure
The elephant in the room is the woeful support / services framework around the IPACE. I've had several problems in the Hampshire area and there is a 2-3 month waiting time to get the car booked in for a service/repair. At one point one of the dealers advised Jaguar Assistance should be used as the car would fail completely before there was a chance to get the car in for a repair. They were right.
If the dealer network around their sole EV - the IPACE struggle to support, I have grave concerns how they are going to support a completely new EV line up given that they will still need to support/service 20-30+ years of Jags in the system in addition to a completely different architecture and platform based on EV.
More than one model in 6 years might have helped, but evidently it's better to let the brand die off.
They seem to have been severely affected by the supply chain issues, more so than other manufacturers. Last 3 years not only it was hard to find one to buy, but according to the internets 2000 JLR customers have been waiting for parts. Supposedly they've cut the queue in half now and are increasing curtesy fleet available, but yeah... I'm not looking forward to the moment I may need a service.
Forget JLR for service and repairs. In our recent experience JLR dealerships are a complete waste of space and don't want to know about 2nd hand cars. Check our HEVRA !
Being EV is irrelevant. They've had massive parts supply issues due to consolidating all their warehouses to a central hub and it's effecting all their cars
Friends of mine just had to wait 6months with their car off the road waiting for a new rear brake light assembly part from.... Audi; it was an Audi Q5 (could not pass MOT without it). Parts shortages are all over the place. All car manufacturers make a longer and longer proprietary BOM (parts list) every time they bring out a new model. Regulators should be jumping on the industry for this and forcing some level of standardisation.
I got my 2019 First edition I Pace last June in Los Angeles with 15k miles for only $40,000, when new it was $90k because it has every available option. I absolutely love it, and even though it’s now 5 years old it constantly gets people attention because they’re rare and still look quite modern. I drive a lot and it’s been such a solid workhorse so far but we’ll see as a rack on the miles. Degradation seems to be very little as I can get 240 miles out of it still. My absolute single favorite thing about it is those 22 inch carbon fiber wheels. Just gorgeous and very unique to a vehicle in this price point.
I've got a '19 HSE model and love it to bits! It's a steal of a price when used these days for what it offers. The design is amazing inside-out and a head-turner like no other short of a supercar - trust me I know. The performance is top notch and the range is still good enough. Not planning on selling mine probably ever!
I got a 2019 first edition in Los Angeles for $40k with 15k miles last summer. It’s been a solid workhorse and no issues so far. It is crazy how a 5 year old car still gets this much attention. I think it’s not only gorgeous but so rare people are still like wtf is that. I still can’t get over the carbon wheels. Just perfect.
Reliability is a huge factor, especially when coupled with a supply chain that simply cannot keep up with demand. Anyone who is considering one of these needs to look closely at H441 update issues rendering many cars (a significant number) almost unusable due to capping battery capacity at 72%. That for me means a displayed range of 145 miles and real world mileage at less than 120. The wait for this to be repaired can be 4-5 months. Windscreens that simply become detached from the car, a £2k fix if not covered by warranty. Failing heaters, leaking A/C systems (battery and front subframe out to repair), front drive unit backlash (£5.5k). I have never had an alleged "Prestige" vehicle with so many major faults and a complete lack of spare parts. Eleven dealer visits in 18 months, ten of which were for major defects and waiting since October for the battery to be restored.
Buyer beware.
I've had the H441 problem and I'm still waiting for it to be repaired after 6 months! Jaguar dealers and their supply chain are appalling, which is why I'll never buy another JLR car after this one
You just saved me a LOT of money and heartache!
Agreed but people buy with passion and looks, soon they will regret buying this overpriced thing.
Incredibly beautiful car, luxury interior and g force inducing acceleration. A used car bargain and I love mine that I picked up recently for just 22.5k.
However, here are some things I dislike in case anyone is considering and put off by these:
- High charge consumption. Even driving conservatively it does burn through battery quite quickly in my experience.
- Slow charging - can go 30-80%ish overnight on a home charger which works for me but if you do a lot of mileage or don’t have a drive and space for a home charger then could be an issue.
- The boot design means water drips on your head when putting things in the boot if it’s been raining which in the UK it often has.
- The charging port is front passenger side which is a small thing but annoys me as I like to reverse park and the charger then doesn’t reach so have to drive in forward. Personal preference but a heads up.
If you’re not put off by those things or doing high mileage this is an absolute bargain of a used car in my opinion.
Very fair points. The charging speed is the only one that really bothers me, and that's only on rare long trips of course. Around town with home charging it's not an issue at all.
I had an early one as a company car a few years ago and loved it. Sadly, they made me give it back when I retired. 😒
It was a great car, but just too expensive for an old man like me. However, looking at the used prices, there may be another one in my driveway very soon.
Absolutely love Jaguar, they will continue to be one of the best brands even moving into the electric era!
Im a tad confused by your post?
JRL products are a horror show for reliability so it isn't one of the best brands.
I myself owned a manual F-Type V6, which was by far and away the worst car I have owned.
@@mykiman5955 really? I hadn’t heard of the issues with Jag, and tbh I’ve always loved the thought of owning one of the f-types, have you had nothing but headaches with it?
@@WillBrownCars jaguar refunded me the full amount of the car as it required a new engine at 16,000miles. On top of that it sat at the dealer for approx 2 months as they had to get a master tech from London to travel up to Carlisle as the techs there couldn't work on a manual car.
On top of that!!!! I had the mobile tech at my home address 3 times in 6 months, he was also at every single JLR owner in the street of which there were 3, it became a running joke..............they look fantastic but are heaps of garbage imo!!!!!
Also some of the interior plastics used in the cabin were worse than crap, squeaks and rattles everywhere.
18 months into my I-pace still think it’s the best car I have driven and I’ve driven a lot. Long journeys are a breeze with no driver fatigue. I lease mine so cost really a problem. Yes I would still choose one today.
These things are an absolute steal on the used market.
Range in California has been 250, consistently since 2019. just FYI as the figures quoted 130-220 ? Fair review though, I wouldn't have it if I regularly did very long journeys. I had no other choice when I bought it.
Would £25k for a 3-4 year old one with around 25,000 miles seem like a decent deal? Sniffing around auto trader this evening thinking about getting one. Obviously wouldn’t touch one for £80k
Even with all these newer ev SUVs rhis still looks so much better. And i actually think it looked loads better with the old grille. Fantastic cars but unfortunately jag didnt keep ontop with the technical side
I own one and the 650 liters boot only lives in Jaguar fantasy land, it’s closer to 500 - do not believe manufacturers marketing lies and do your own mesures. I love this car though and since very little has been changed since it came out - it’s a steal on the used car market as too many of them are coming back from leases for the market to absorb. And why pay top $$$ for 5 year old tech ? (I’m really angry at Bollorré who let Jaguar down)
I think Jaguar as a whole is sleeping for the last 6 years, not just i-Pace, they haven't brought anything to the market other than the new F-Type, did minor facelifts of the rest-XE, XF, F-Pace, E-Pace. Its a shame, how the JLR group completely ignored Jaguar and concentrated only on Land (& Range) Rover. This car needed an update in 2020 with a better battery pack for efficiency and even if late, they could have done it now in 2024 to go out with the last hurrah but lethargy is hard to break. Such a sad story for Jaguar who make arguably the best looking and feeling cars but never support them with good and relaible moving parts. Same story here but with electric drivetrain.
Thats because of the focus for the future. They will literally catapult ahead once the new line up comes out
agree. Tata Motors is really mismanaging Jag and also under-investing
I just bought one its absolutely brilliant !
I would argue it’s not a model Y competitor as it’s a luxury product.
So sad to see this one coming to an end,. But, as an owner since 2021, and as much as I love it, I can’t wait to be shot of it as battery problems start to rear their heads. Jaguar service is shocking (they’ve had mine for 5 months for a new battery cell). But the I pace is beautiful, luxury interior and the drive is the best I’ve owned. Technology and service lets it down and I am sad to see it go. Jaguar needed to put more into this car to make it successful.
The interior that is not one huge screen mounted randomly is a refreshing one.
instead they put a 2002 ipod as a screen and surrounded it with 12 inch thick piano black plastic
@@lpltand it looks much better for it
Loads of these available in 2024 at ~ £20k .
I just bought a 2019 and I'm smitten. The most epic car I've ever owned in every possible way.
Just bought a used 21, it is such a good car. A shame Jaguar didn’t upgrade and continue it.
Now i know why this thing isnt selling, its 2x the money it should be !
Have a 2020 I-PACE and love it! Best daily driver we’ve ever had!
This replaced our 970 Panamera Turbo (both of which we bought used btw), a car that most ICE fans would probably agree is a pretty good daily driver in its own right. And I can honestly say the Jag is better in every single way. I don’t miss the Panamera one bit, neither does the wife. With the Jag, there’s no automatic transmission to get confused around town, never getting into a hot or cold car with preconditioning, there’s insane instant torque, the smoothness and refinement is unmatched (not only because no engine noise but also because the 1000 pound battery insulates you from road noise), the use of space is excellent (small on the outside and big on the inside because no engine), low center of gravity, naturally perfect weight distribution, being able to blow by anyone in traffic anytime, never being in the wrong gear, way more efficient, never being late because I had to stop for gas, no maintenance, quicker than most v8 family cars and more efficient than i-4 family cars, etc etc. And even though on paper the panamera was faster 0-60, in real life around town it’s not even close - the Jag would be gone before the panamera would even get into the right gear.
Copy-pasta deluxe
Glad you’re enjoying it
Ninja do u work for jag? Y u out here writing essays?
Mate if an automatic transmission confuses you, you need to stop driving. Youre a danger to yourself and other road users
Nice attempt to be clever but I didn’t say it confuses me. I said it gets confused ie it can’t decide between gears around town. Nice try tho
Depreciation like a washing machine off a cliff
I love the e pace it’s got big power, a great range, personality and looks stunning ……. Oh did I say e pace? I meant F type R - V8 550bhp !
So you’ve told us what you think of the E-Pace and F-Pace … what about the I-Pace? 🤣🤣
I have owned mine from new for three years. Still as good as new, so I extended the warranties for two years.
Absolute bargain, second hand. I've been a BMW man for the past decade. Got my first ever Jaguar recently and an IPace at that. Absolutely lovely car for the price if bought second hand.
Was it half off?
@@logical_lb3059Saw a 2023 HSE spec on Autotrader for £38k a while back which would be LESS than half price.
Brilliant review from an excellent presenter - l have decided to get an i pace rather than a Polestar 3 for 3 reasons - firstly its a jag and the drive is amazing and secondly inside the car is so luxurious and l really hate the 2 screen lazy approach of Polestar , hiding behind minimalism , thirdly the Polestar's monthly payments are too high for a brand that has no heritage yet.
Ouch, 80G pounds?! That's crazy. There are many alternatives. I wasn't too crazy about the design either.
I hope the revamp of their EV line is a bit more in tune with what the market has to offer
Having had a HSE for four months and now a Model Y LR for 18 months, I still miss the drive of the Jag, but the Tesla and other EV's have left the Jag behind in terms of the app, before you get in the car and also the infotainment. Efficiency is poor but more around the 225-260 mark, not improving the max charge speed is a woeful decision by Jaguar, I know they are ceasing production and in truth their focus is on the next generation of their lineup, but they should have given this great car one last great update....
Nice car but 1.5-2.5 miles/kWh is not good. I'd probably choose a Kia EV6 instead
I've got one and nothing has beat me away from lights yet.
Let’s hope no one ever does, your fragile ego might not cope!
How old are you 12. Time to be a grown up now.
@@RichardNelson-h4b that is the most ironic reply, good work.
My daughter bought me one 18/09/24 for my birthday.
1.5 to 2.5 kw/hr shows exactly how out of date its technology is. Take your average Tesla at 3.5 to 5.0 kw/hr with more than double the charging speed and you can see that this hasn't moved for 2018.
I love the Ipace, it drives like a proper Jag, something other manufacturers have struggled with wen launching EVs. The fact that this car is still so good to drive with good refinement and stands the test of time so well. Is testimont to the Ipace itself and Jag, however they have really missed the boat, this car was award winning wen launched they really should have used that footprint and done more, even launched a different model, they have lost a lot of interest from original Ipace customers and I ain't sure they will win them back wen they finally do release a new EV.
The biggest problem of I-Pace is the price! It priced against Model X when it was out claim itself as a "Model X" Competitor. Guess what, no one believe it is the same segment of Model X, it is smaller, has less range, and comes from a automaker with a lot of trust issues. If they have placed it slightly above Model Y's price range, I am pretty sure it would have sold much much better
I’ve just bought a second hand 70 plate and unless you’re doing loads of long journeys then the charging speed really isn’t an issue. It looks stunning and it’s a fantastic drive!
about to buy a 70 plate. looks and quality took my eyes away from an XC60 hybrid. nervous of a full EV but for the same money I feel I want to dive in!!
It’s absolutely ridiculous that they have not updated the Batteries, the design was excellent, the JLR Pivi Pro system is excellent but again latest is not in this car..I had one for six months but the charging infrastructure network was than and now lacking, hence I now run a Hybrid that works for me...but it should in 2024 be more efficient and have 350 mile actual range...it’s almost a tragedy..
This car isn’t new cause I-pace already existed back in 2018. The fact is that Jaguar hybrid and EV are so underrated. Why? The first reason is the e-pace wasn’t efficient enough compared to Toyota ch-r and newly introduced Tesla. Second reason is the price of I-pace and e-pace which is like a bullet into your feet compared to ev cars in the segment. The result of it lacking energy efficiency and high price tag plummet Jaguar in the dusty closet.
A shame Jaguar is making a acceptable looking car look realy bad by removing the one good thing on the old ipace the grill. I know it has no purpose but i hate the mustang for it. Its a nightmare for real car lovers.
Charging speeds mean much less in reality. Given I had a Q4 for a week which is fairly fast at charging, finding a public charger which will supply its quoted speed or anywhere near that is impossible. 150kw charger thats being used on neither a busy nor quiet day, you'll get around 40kw/h. Porsche realised most of their owners charge at home nearly all the time, and admitted their 800v charging framework is a bit unnecessary
I LOVE my I-Pace..drives like a dream, handles great, the interior is superior..I love it..I've gotten up to about 120KW on a fast charger
both the driver and the car are jaw droppingly gorgeous 😍
Buy a second hand one, it has depreciated a lot making a fantastic deal second hand.
I tested this in 2020 before I bought a Polestar 2.
Then I passed on the iPace again and got a BMW iX in 2023.
It’s a nice enough car but it’s too expensive, has old infotainment and the new grill looks very cheap.
The DC charging speed is slow too
With the terrible customer service and parts eternally on backorder for JLR's bestselling vehicles, i shudder to think of what will happen when one needs any work done on a discontinued iPace. I'll pass😂
JLR is nuts for not refreshing this car. I wanted one since they came out and finally bought a used First Edition for my wife and we love the car. Only shortcomings are the range, efficiency, and charge speed. Other than those items, the car is nearly competitive with newer EVs on the market. Come on JLR, bring out a new one so we have something to upgrade to in four years!
Range, efficiency, and charge speed…Yeah, just all the important stuff…lol
@@dlj1285 Lol, I knew someone would say that, but it's only an issue if you plan on driving long distances frequently. For someone using the car primarily as a commuter or for trips under 400 miles, it works great since you can recharge every night. Besides, most people buying a car in this price range have other vehicles in the household.
@@jghall00 It is a very nice looking car. I always liked it, so I definitely see the appeal. You make good points.
Cheers
Thank you for the nice Video.
After 4 years with my I-Pace SE (2020) and many driving test off other EV‘s, i took my new I-Pace HSE (2024) and I love it.
Still a magnificent car. Superb drive. Rear screen fine though a wiper would have been nice. 240 mile normal range and rarely use public charging
I got one for 3 years and I totally agree with this review. Amazing car to drive, and still the best looking EV to me, but the price just doesn't justify for what you get. For that money now you can get the new Macan EV ! Please don't compare this to a model Y or Mach E, this isn't fair when you see the difference in fit and finish and luxury. I also think the infotainment is now also very outdated and have to say it's one of the least reliable EV, sadly. I would have kept it if it was. Also sad to feel that Jaguar never seemed to want to sell it.
Imo they are decent vehicles. Definitely worth looking at on the used market. But they didn't make enough quality of life improvements to justify that price. Its freaking fast, but the majority of EVs are quick now.
It needed to charge at nearly double too make people look at it at its price. And it should have become more efficient over the years.
I bought one last year. Its brilliant and it's a shame Jaguar is ending production.
And this Alex, is why we all love Jaguar. As a company and business, Jaguar has made some poor business decisions. Nevertheless they make the loveliest cars.
I own a 2023 I-Pace and this is an excellent review. Very accurate . If you can afford it and have a home charger set up this is a brilliant car that still turns heads .
Slow charging is a non-starter for me.
I'm a Model Y owner, but been in a friends iPace that he charges off his rooftop solar. The interior and ride are excellent. You would not know it had been on the market so long. Jaguar should have bought the charging tech up to date and reduced the price, but me thinks it's a compliance vehicle and beyond the fact they probably don't make much money on it, Idoubt Jaguar want the iPace to be popular, so they don't have to support it.
If Buying one of these cars for around £20/25k it’s with out doubt the best car on the road
This car is a second hand gem, found them for around 23k euros
Ahhh depreciation huh. These things sure do.
It's a pity they invested zero in developing it, in getting incremental improvements in efficiently over time. I love it but way too short range
Porche just released their Macan starting around 70-80 grand😂. It can cover 350miles and it charges nearly 3x faster than this Jaguar. I mean😂. Whats going on here? Is it April already?
Most people charge at home, at night and both cars will charge at 11 kWh if you are a lucky owner of 3-phase power line or 7.5 kWh if you are the rest of the world.
Sad! Jaguar completely lost their way...
Shambles..
Soon be a thing of the past.
Does Jaguar actually follow through any plans or just keep on planning and cancelling?
It’s been out for so long and hasn’t changed at all. May as well by a used one for 25k.
It's by far, the prettiest EV on the market. Gorgeous car.
Not better than a tesla model s
@@bigd8812 far far better than a model s in every possible area except software speed and graphics.
2nd hand is the way to go, but i'm worried about parts and support for an aging, rare EV.
Had my ipace for over 5 years, its been fantastic, good review apart from range, I get about 203/240 miles on a full charge even in the winter
You simply would have to be mad....
its a really good car, considering its electric, the performance and the model
one day when im rich. 🙏
Hugely under rated (and under bought) when it was released.

It did in the world of DOS until Windows arrived and caught the interrupt - now it offers you a reboot among other options.
Expensive, old school, low tech with poor range. The Model Y is in a different league.
Yes, in a different league with all the panel gaps, cheap interior, not working auto wipers and ridicilous looking screen.
Jaguar does make good-looking cars that generally age very well.
Eh? Very little to complain about? In your summation- the price and charging speed. But also its efficiency which is utterly atrocious. This is now so far behind the pack. Plenty of SUVs you did not mention such as the Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6- the latter of which looks similar design wise but charges at 240kW and is almost half the price also and has a very long warranty which you probably won't need.Unlike the Jag. You would have to be a total Jaguar fan to buy this new or know nothing about EVs! 2nd or 3rd hand though (like most Jags) not bad at all!
Nice car. Wondering how long they will last, is battery changeable? 4 year old ones look a bargain
Totally love this car
Owning a BEV is not about charging speed. You need access to overnight or through-the-day charging at max 11 kWh, maybe 22 kWh if charging points are limited.
250-400 km on full charge is decent for any kind of daily commute and errands and leaves room for peace of mind.
Long-range driving is not for EVs, just go with a nice TC petrol or diesel if you are doing over 300 km driving.
Basically, like many new cars, this is simply way too expensive. Makes a great used buy though. You can now get a 2019/20 for under £20k. This is great news, long may the depreciation continue. Just ensure you get one well under 100k miles....thats when the battery warranty expires.
Its a Jagg!
... Made in Austria by a third party. Hardly updated in years, as the reviewer said. Soon to be discontinued. You would have to be brave or foolishly rich to own one.
As an owner of an i-pace and old-old rav4, I can say that Jaguar has to make something like e-pace, but electric. It has to be smaller than i-pace, lightweight, spacious, efficient, more affordable and with all new LR/jaguar tech in it.
look at used prices before spending £70k on a car like this. It will make you weep
Why are they putting the brakes on EV’s then ?
Only the car makers struggling to sell their EV’s are cutting production.
Tesla, BYD, BMW and many others are doing well in the EV space !
@@SDK2006b Jaguar needed to focus on bringing their best seller as an EV to market and likely misunderstood the market
My favourite looking electric SUV. But I'm not buying an EV or an SUV
Sharp looking, but jag doesn’t seem to care about updating it. Rather get the Model X which cost less (with 7500 tax deal), more manufacture attention with updates, much more room, and 100 miles more range…
Love it! But won't pay that much
It's a great car, get one second hand and get a bargain. Built by Steyr and designed to be an EV only. Other EVs are copying the design now. Not sure about the reviewers 'very unique' style.
Why can't I find a single Jaguar or Land Rover you tube channel that will talk about the reliability of the vehicles ?
Why just look for a UA-cam channel? Any online search will give you all the info you need about reliability, etc. Unfortunately, as with a similar search for MOST car models/manufacturers, you'll find as many horror stories as you will "dream car" scenarios so end up non the wiser.
I owned a 2020 2 year old second hand SE 400 black edition for 9 months . Overall a fantastic car, one of the best I've driven. Low service costs, even cheaper my specialized road bicycle 😂 But every 2-3 months something popped up. Broken doorhandle after 2 months, wire harness issue (dramatic sound while driving), squeaking breaks on short stops (from 5 km/u to 0), failing infotainment, very poor lane assist that drives like a drunk. Even my father's in law Ford Puma has a much better lane assist. Currently driving my wife's Taycan RWD and that is just so much better tested overall, however the infotainment system freezes also from time to time afther 6 months. Did prefer the jag though, much more practical, better acceleration then the Porsche, the 4*4 was superb. But I had no confidence in the car, where i think this would become just a running bill. The depreciation and new price are too high, even for a second hand it will still continue to plummet. You can take the risk if you don't care about some minor discomforts. For me these were the dealbreakers. Just before I turned in the car i e heared about the security bulletin of setting itself on fire as a bomshell to end my story. I'm glad I don't have it anymore.
Loving the testimony of actual EV400 owners in the comments! As someone who is genuinely looking at one of these as an introduction to EV SUV they are much appreciated.
