The facelifted I-Pace is getting undeniably long in the tooth - but it still has a thing or two to show other EVs
, when it will launch an assault on the luxury market and make only electric vehicles - but not the I-Pace, it seems. Having been confounding expectations since 2018, the I-Pace will be gone before we know it. High time then that we remind ourselves what the old electric Jag can still offer, and what the next generation can learn from it.
So much so, in fact, that the interior hasn’t changed at all - which is great news. There are big chunky buttons and dials for drive modes, HVAC and transmission, the Pivi Pro screen is sharp and responsive , and the driving position manages to feel appropriate for both a vaguely sporting Jaguar and an SUV. Nothing chafes or frustrates, and nothing requires acclimatisation; there’s a lot to be said for that these days.
Even the elements that date it a tad are far from the end of the world. There isn’t a one-pedal drive setting and Dynamic mode isn’t an all-guns-blazing button fit only for scaring passengers once or twice. It just nicely tightens up the whole driving experience, for those times it feels appropriate. It's a reminder that EVs don’t need gimmicks if there’s genuine substance to the package.
