The Jaguar I-Pace is a superb luxury electric SUV that operates with an electric powertrain and provides you with the on-road demeanor and internal comfort you've come to expect in a Jaguar. The Jaguar I-Pace features a distinctive exterior design and advanced technology like a powerful Meridian sound system, reassuring driver assistance features, and smartphone connectivity. Here's an overview of the new Jaguar I-Pace that's available today for a test drive at Jaguar of Nashville in Brentwood TN.

What's new for 2023?

For the latest model year, the I-Pace needed few modifications but includes the re-introduction of a performance seat option and three new exterior paint colors: Light Oyster, Ebony and Mars Red. In addition, the I-Pace is the first Jaguar ever built that features Amazon Alexa voice control. In addition, Jaguar has made wireless charging a standard feature in this intiguing electric crossover.

The trim level

The Jaguar I-Pace comes in a single trim called the HSE. This model comes standard with a nice collection of advanced safety features including lane-keeping assist and adaptive cruise control. There's also a powerful premium audio system, genuine leather upholstery, a head-up display and 16-way power-adjustable front seats with heated and cooled cushions. Two other luxury amenities include 20-inch wheels and a power-operated liftgate.

EV power and performance

The Jaguar I-Pace comes with standard all-wheel drive thanks to the help of two electric motors that generate a combined 394 horsepower along with 512 pound-feet of torque. That gives you the kind of rapid, effortless acceleration that allows you to travel quickly between city stoplights and accelerate past slower-moving vehicles on the highway. The standard air suspension system gives the I-Pace a comfortable ride and satisfying steering feedback.

Range and charging times

The 2023 Jaguar I-Pace comes with a 90-kilowatt battery pack that gives you a driving range of up to 246 miles on a full charge. That, of course, is far less than the 412 miles of driving range you can get with the average gas-powered vehicle with a full tank of gas. If you get a 240-volt AC outlet installed in your garage, it will take you about 10 hours to fully recharge the battery. That’s obviously far more than the five minutes it takes to fill a gas-powered luxury vehicle so that’s something to keep in mind as you make your purchasing decision.

Fuel economy

EPA estimates for the 2023 Jaguar I-pace are based on the wheel size you select. If you get the Jaguar I-Pace 20-inch wheels, you should get the equivalent of about 82 MPG on the highway. With larger 22-inch wheels, you'll get about 72 MPG on highways around Nashville TN.

Interior comfort and cargo space

The Jaguar I-Pace comes with plenty of interior space for passengers and nicely-bolstered front seats. This luxury EV can be outfitted with a number of attractive features like performance front seats, a head-up display, heated front and rear seats and four-zone climate control. You can also get your choice of several leather upholstery options. The I-Pace gives you about 5.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats which should be enough to handle several carry-on suitcases.

Infotainment technology

Standard infotainment features include a 10-inch touch screen, wireless smartphone connectivity, wireless device charging, satellite radio and a 15-speaker Meridian stereo. Also standard are proximity keyless entry, push-button start and a panoramic sunroof. A Wi-Fi hotspot and a sunshade are available options.
