News: 2019 Jaguar I-Pace Revealed

Ahead of the auto show, Hollywood actor Ansel Elgort put his driving skills to the test behind the wheel of the all-electric I-PACE to take-on the Jaguar Smart Cone Challenge. Two and a half years ago, I test drove the Tesla Model S and had one thing to say: believe the hype. Its pricing is closer to an Emgrand model. Worldwide, the Tesla Model X is simply one of the top selling electric vehicles, up there with the Nissan Leaf, Tesla Model S, BYD Qin and BAIC EC-Series. Soueast had announced an all-new DX3 for Beijing, which would have kept the brand inside the Top 10, instead we got a striking but decidedly concept-looking DX. Let’s be clear: Haval has not lowered its standards and is still one of the Top 5 Chinese brands that could enter mature markets such as Europe or the U.S.A. Its interior quality was extremely impressive last year and it still is this year, especially in the sporty version exhibited. Hyundai has a bigger version of the hatchback in the international market.

The Jetour X70 is one of the cheapest 7-seat SUVs in the Chinese market. The CS75 and CS35 SUVs have continued to post staggering sales figures month after month and the recently launched CS15 looks like it’s headed the same way. It’s annoying. On a better note, the Bluetooth key fob remembers the driver and, as you approach the vehicle, it’ll automatically configure everything from seat position to A/C temp to radio presets based on your preferences.

I’ve done far more ill-advised things in my life than get into a car with a professional driver, especially one that’s been professionally fitted with a full rollcage. Add in its luxurious appointments and innovative styling, and you have a 21st-century Jaguar with a unique and undeniable appeal, one that’s at least a year ahead of coming rivals from Germany.

In these troubled times, with car companies desperately trying to figure their way into the future, here’s an idea that’s comparatively easy to scale up. And we work very closely with FIA to create the car because, again, they didn’t have a rule for a production factory electric racing car. Although official stats weren’t given, the e-Tron Quattro’s concept shown earlier claimed to have a range in excess of 300 miles with a 95-kW battery pack, using three electric motors with a total output of 320 kW. Power is stored in a liquid cooled 90-kilowatt-hour lithium battery that the automaker expects will have an EPA real world driving range of around 220 miles. And I have no doubt that Formula E will be another case in point. Long term, Waymo plans to have an even broader spectrum of vehicles in its autonomous fleet, everything from minivans, to luxury SUVs, to small cars.

It even learns your habits. This will allow owners to check the car’s range, lock status and more without leaving the house or even picking up a smart device. The racecar is also all-wheel-drive, produces 395 hp, so performance wise, the powertrain is actually more than up to the task.

AM: What is the technology as regards to the battery in terms of making it safe for racing? The I-Pace may be a turning point for BEVs, where battery overheating during performance track driving becomes much less of a concern. But now Jaguar returns, fully committed, it says, to the all-electric format, Formula E. The team is entering its second year and Jaguar recently announced the new I-Pace eTrophy as a support series. The disappointing element of my Changan review last year in Shanghai was the uneven interior quality of its lineup: apart from the very strong CS75 the rest was falling apart. Changan is a big player now, but is in the process of losing its soul. There was just no real excitement, energy and pride on the stands, it felt like business-as-usual everywhere, there were no race car to spice up the Changan stand, no frank smiles on the hosts. Won’t there be an imperative to raise the power to make them even faster?
