Jaguar’s 2020 I-Pace

The electric vehicle market has become all the rage within the past few years. Jaguar’s 2020 I-Pace is one contender that re- ally stands out. This Jaguar boasts on the road excitement all wrapped up in a very stylish design.

Jaguar offers enthusiasts three trim levels separated by what comes standard and what you can choose to upgrade. All the trim levels offer standard all -wheel drive powered by two electric motors. These motors combined produce 394 horse- power and 512 lb-ft of torque. And like most electric vehicles that power comes quickly and without hesitation. The I-Pace’s 90.0kWh battery pack earns an EPA-rated driving range of 253 miles.

On the road the 2020 I-Pace is fun to drive. It is extremely re- sponsive and agile with a stan- dard air suspension that keeps everyone inside happy and com- fortable. Jaguar designed the hefty battery pack to sit under the floors which provides a low center of

gravity and more stability.

Jaguar also made certain the 2020 I-Pace is equipped with a standard DC fast-charging port that allows 80 percent of its bat- tery to be charged within 40 minutes.

The 2020 I-Pace’s interior is all Jaguar with very elegant fin- ishes encompassing a modern simplistic dash with plenty of passenger space to go around. Jaguar offers a long list of stan- dard and tech upgrades to help personalize your vehicle.

The I-Pace has lots of stor- age out back and one of the best manufacture’s warranties in the business.

The 2020 Jaguar I-Pace starts at the $70,000 mark and can top out around $81,000. This is one electric vehicle that deserves a test drive.
