The new 2019 Jaguar I-Pace has officially joined the English automaker’s line-up as their first electric SUV. The I-Pace comes in as the third SUV model, joining the ranks of the E-Pace and F-Pace. For this model, Jaguar put all their eggs into an electric basket and the result is their most technologically-advanced vehicle yet.
Powering the I-Pace is a 90kWh battery that has an estimated range of up to 240 miles. For power, the electric drivetrain produces 394 and 512 lb-ft of torque. A press on the accelerator will send all of this power to all wheels for a 0-60 mph time 4.5 seconds.

If you’ve spent all of the juice in the I-Pace, charging it back up is a quick task. Using a 100kW DC fast charger will allow for a 0-80% charge in 40 minutes. Those using a 230V AC wall box can expect a 0-80% charge in just over 10 hours. While charging, drivers can pre-condition the battery temperature for maximum range and also heat or cool the cabin before they hop in for a drive. Jaguar has also equipped the I-Pace with regenerative braking, allowing the SUV to achieve optimum efficiency and range.
