Overview
The car has a five-door hatchback body,[1][11] and is classified as an executive car by Euro NCAP and as a medium SUV by the Australasian New Car Assessment Programme.[1][11]
The Jaguar I-Pace launched with a WLTP-rated range of 292 mi[12] and an EPA-rated range of 234 mi. In December 2019, software enhancements were released to increase range to an EPA-rated range of 246 mi.[13][14] The car can ford water up to 500 mm deep.[15] The rear boot holds 23.17 cuft,[16] along with 1 cuft of front boot space. The drag coefficient is 0.29.[4]
The car has all-wheel drive via two motors powered by a 90kWh LG Chem liquid cooled lithium-ion battery.[4] Each motor delivers 197 HP and 258 lb·ft of torque, for a total power of 395 HP and total torque of 516 lb·ft.[4] The 0–62mph (0–100km/h) time is 4.8 seconds,[12] and the top speed is electronically limited to 124mph (200km/h).[17]
The battery contains 432 pouch cells.[18] It can charge from 0 to 80 per cent in 85 minutes using 50kW DC charging, or 45 minutes using a 100kW charger. Home charging with an AC wall box (7kW) achieves the same state of charge in 10 hours.[17] As the I-Pace was initially released with a single-phase 7kW AC charger, a one-hour charge, would add around 30 km of range.[19] Later 2021 models had 11kW AC charging, at single-phase or three-phase, depending on market.
The car comes with a smartphone app called Jaguar Remote, which can locate the car, report on its locking, alarming and charging status, and start its battery preconditioning or cabin heating/cooling.
