It looks very compelling in that advert (so full marks to the marketing team - although as it's a brand new vehicle, why call it "all new iPace"?). Some nice features although nothing revolutionary really. Would I have it instead of a Range Rover? Only if I didn't need a Range Rover's other abilities. Would I have it over a Velar? Yes, I think I would. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

I put a deposit on one when they were announced nearly 3 years ago............... was supposed to be launched at the end of 2016, then early 2017, then Autumn 2017 - I got fed up waiting and asked for my deposit back......... Problem is that while it might not have and SDv6 engine it has JLR electronics and we all know what their track record on that front is like - I wouldn’t now touch one in the first 2 years of production as a result. I think it is a cracking looking car and I’m sure that it will be a big seller on looks alone. I’m sure that with no low ratios and not a lot of ground clearance even a “soft road” might severely challenge it with all that weight in the battery pack - for sure it won’t have a suitable recovery point build in! It will go about as far offroad as my soon to arrive Mini Countryman - not very far, possible across a flat grassy field but don’t expect much more.

I'm surprised"iPace" hasn't wrankled some noses at Apple™. |

I watched the I-Pace v Tesla X 75D - now why didn’t they test it against the 90D which is the same kW motor, so it proved the Tesla was slower 0-100kph-0 and so was the Tesla S P100D probably because both are somewhat heavier then the Jag. Mind you the price of the Tesla X P100D with ludicrous mode (0-62 is 2.6sec) starts at £150,000 which makes the I-Pace look cheap in comparison! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
