Edmunds Rating

The I-Pace is a few years old now, but it's still an impressive machine that exudes style, performance and elegance unlike anything else in its segment. This all-wheel-drive electric SUV delivers impressive dynamic capabilities too, and while it isn't the most efficient EV in the class, it proved it can exceed its official EPA range estimates in our real-world testing. Jaguar is only offering the I-Pace in top trim HSE, but it has dropped the price to make it fairly competitive against other midsize electric SUVs.

Overview

The I-Pace is Jaguar's only electric vehicle, and it was one of the first all-electric luxury SUVs to hit the market when it was introduced for the 2019 model year. It's a compelling EV boasting a luxurious interior with lots of technology and enough power to hit 60 mph from a stop in just 4.5 seconds when we tested it. The low-slung design gives the Jaguar a distinctive look, and it's not just for show, as the I-Pace delivers an engaging driving experience. The electric Jag also provides a comfortable ride and an ample amount of room for passengers.

For 2023, the I-Pace receives Amazon Alexa integration. Alexa is a voice command system that can be used for navigation guidance, playing music, making phone calls and more. Wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is also new for 2023, and wireless smartphone charging is added to the I-Pace's list of standard features.

When the I-Pace was first released, it had very few rivals, but that's not the case in today's quickly growing luxury EV segment, which now includes the Audi e-tron, the Genesis GV60 and the Cadillac Lyriq, one of the newest electric luxury SUVs. Driving range is one area where the I-Pace falls behind when compared to rivals. When equipped with 20-inch wheels, it has an EPA-estimated range of 246 miles, but that drops to 217 miles with the optional 22-inch wheels. However, in Edmunds' real-world range test, the I-Pace drove 262 miles. Check out our Expert Rating below to get our test team's full review of the I-Pace's performance, tech and more.

Performance

8.0/10

How does the I-PACE drive? Though this Jag is now a veteran in the luxury EV segment, it's quite quick by most measures. You can get to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds without breaking a sweat or making much noise. It steers and handles with enthusiasm while maintaining good poise and control. If there's a reason to get the I-Pace over any of its newer competition, it's for the fun and engagement you can have at the wheel.

We complained about the abruptness of the brakes when the I-Pace was introduced, but those issues appear to have been resolved on the latest models. That doesn't mean the brakes are flawless now — our test car's emergency stopping distances were still longer than average for a luxury EV, and the I-Pace's regenerative braking won't bring you to a complete stop. That latter detail may seem trivial but makes a big difference in the day-to-day driving experience.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the I-PACE? The I-Pace, like most of the luxury EVs in this class, offers a good degree of everyday comfort. The seats may not adjust in all the ways we'd dream of, but we found them supportive and satisfying even on an all-day drive. The I-Pace's adaptive air suspension has a slightly firm and sporty feel to it but manages to take enough of the edge off most bigger bumps in the roads that we don't have any real complaints. And though the I-Pace's cabin was quantifiably not as quiet as others according to our sound meter, we found it to be audibly peaceful.

The only real letdown is the climate control system, which is simultaneously weak and cumbersome to adjust. The dials that control the temperature zones serve triple duty, also controlling seat temperature and fan speed. Even after a couple of weeks of use, we found it difficult to make fumble-free adjustments. The front seats have both heat and ventilation functions, neither of which impressed our discerning derrieres.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? The I-Pace is on the smaller side for the segment, making it inherently less roomy than the rest. It still manages to provide a decent amount of space in both rows for average-size adults and we consider it family-friendly. Its sleeker raked profile means a little less head clearance when you're getting in. But there's plenty of headroom once you're inside thanks to the spacing-saving glass roof that's now ubiquitous in this class. The air suspension is also adjustable, allowing for varying levels of step-in height.

We're fairly confident most people will be able to find a comfortable driving position, though the I-Pace doesn't offer quite the range of seat adjustments its contemporaries do. The interior controls are a mixed bag — some are pretty straightforward to operate and others, like the climate controls, less so. Jaguar seems to prioritize form over function here, so at least things look pretty. Outward visibility is also a mixed bag. Forward and side visibility is amazing thanks to the way the front pillars and sideview mirrors are positioned. Then you look back through that short rear window with thick rear pillars and feel a bit more thankful that the I-Pace offers an optional surround-view camera system.

Technology

8.0/10

How’s the tech? Early production I-Paces suffered from laggy touchscreens, but that's no longer a problem. We found the current system relatively responsive and stable. We did have intermittent issues with Apple CarPlay smartphone projection failing to activate, but that's not something exclusive to Jaguar. The Jaguar's Meridian audio system is standard since only the top-of-the-line HSE trim exists now, but it's a good system that produces rich sound.

The I-Pace also comes with a fairly comprehensive suite of advanced driver aids. Advancements in these systems have set new performance standards, and the I-Pace's by comparison are mostly average. We thought the rear cross-traffic alert worked pretty well, but the adaptive cruise was a bit hit-and-miss. Sometimes the system was a little late to react, and the lane keeping assistance was prone to following the wrong lines or following cars ahead that were switching lanes.

Storage

7.5/10

How’s the storage? The I-Pace delivers a good dose of everyday utility even if it's a bit smaller than the average midsize electric SUV. The back seat is compatible with most any child safety seat, with easy-to-access seat anchors, and the cabin has an adequate amount of storage for loose odds and ends. The 23 cubic feet of cargo area is easy to load but on the narrow side. The compartment is uncommonly deep, though, and the 40/20/40-split rear seats fold nice and flat, opening up a good deal of space. The I-Pace does have a front trunk, but at less than a cubic foot of volume, it's mainly a good storage spot for the portable charger.

Range and Efficiency

7.5/10

How are the range and efficiency? The I-Pace HSE has an EPA-estimated range of 222 miles and is estimated to consume 45 kWh per 100 miles, which is among one of the least efficient EVs currently on sale. For some context, the Tesla Model X Long Range is rated at a much more efficient 33 kWh/100 miles (smaller numbers are better), and the BMW iX on 22-inch wheels (!) even fares better than the Jaguar at 39 kWh/100 miles.

Fortunately the I-Pace proved to be a bit less power-hungry in the real world. On Edmunds' real-world EV range loop, we drove 262 miles on a single charge, consuming much less energy at 36.3 kWh/100 miles. That's much closer to the competition.

The I-Pace comes with an 11-kW onboard charger (an upgrade from its previous 7-kW charger) that Jaguar estimates can add as much as 33 miles per hour at the highest level. It also has DC fast-charging capability up to 100 kW, which is slower than most of its competition can charge.

Value

8.0/10

Is the I-PACE a good value? The I-Pace is only available in HSE trim, which was previously the top trim. But prices have dropped significantly, making the I-Pace one of the more affordable midsize EV SUVs. It looks and mostly feels worth the price as long as range and interior space aren't a determinant in how you perceive value.

Jaguar's warranty has also been better than average, and that holds true for the I-Pace. Its five years/60,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper, powertrain coverage and roadside assistance and eight years/100,000 miles of battery coverage are decent. And although you won't need much in the way of maintenance other than keeping an eye on tires and wiper blades, Jaguar also provides free maintenance for the term of the bumper-to-bumper warranty.

Wildcard

8.5/10

The I-Pace surprised us when we first drove it, and it holds its own against today's competition, at least in terms of being fun to drive. Its shape is unique and isn't 100% SUV. Whatever you call it, it catches a few eyes because it's fun and interesting to look at. We kind of dig it, but we're also ready to see what Jaguar is up to next.

Which I-PACE does Edmunds recommend?

The HSE trim is your only choice with the I-Pace. But that's OK because it comes loaded with leather upholstery, heated and cooled front seats, a glass roof and a Meridian audio system. For additional luxury, select the Premium Upgrade Interior package, which adds leather on the interior panels and upgraded interior ambient lighting.

The Jaguar I-Pace SUV is available in just one trim level: the HSE. The I-Pace is powered by two electric motors, one on each axle, making a combined 394 horsepower and 512 lb-ft of torque. The I-Pace's 90-kWh battery pack is good for an EPA-estimated 246 miles of range with 20-inch wheels and 217 miles with 22-inch wheels. All-wheel drive is standard.

Jaguar I-PACE vs. Audi e-tron

The e-tron is Audi's largest electric SUV. It's more conventional-looking than the sleeker I-Pace but provides better passenger and cargo room. It's also more comfortable. Yet the I-Pace offers greater power and a more entertaining driving experience. When it comes to efficiency, both have comparable but relatively short EPA-estimated driving ranges when compared to other luxury SUVs. Starting prices are similar, but the I-Pace comes with more standard features while the higher trims of the e-tron get pricey.

Jaguar I-PACE vs. Cadillac Lyriq

The all-new Lyriq is Cadillac's first electric SUV. The single-motor version has an EPA-estimated driving range of 312 miles, significantly higher than the I-Pace's 246 miles (with 20-inch wheels). The interior of the Lyriq is dominated by an impressive-looking 33-inch curved screen that controls almost everything, and the Cadillac will offer Super Cruise, a hands-free driving system that works on select highways. The larger Lyriq has a lower starting price and comes loaded with more standard features.

Jaguar I-PACE vs. Genesis GV60

The GV60 is currently Genesis' only electric SUV and one of our highest-ranking EVs. It delivers an excellent blend of performance, luxury and comfort. Like the I-Pace, the GV60 provides less driving range than most rivals, but unlike the I-Pace, it has the capability of charging its battery faster than most. The GV60 is shorter in length but has more passenger room than the I-Pace. It also sports some neat tech features such as fingerprint and facial recognition. Both GV60 models are priced lower than the I-Pace and come standard with more features.
