All-New 2019 Jaguar I-PACE is Unveiled, Puts Tesla on Notice

In a live webcast from its manufacturing facility in Graz, Austria, Jaguar today revealed the highly anticipated production version of the I-PACE electric crossover. The global public debut will take place at the Geneva Motor Show next week and, while dealers have already begun taking orders, its arrival at North American dealerships is scheduled for the second half of 2018.

Influenced heavily by the concept vehicle revealed in 2016 (itself influenced by the C-X75 supercar concept), the 2019 Jaguar I-PACE will be available in three trim levels: S, SE and HSE, with an additional First Edition model available for the first year only.

“Starting with a clean sheet enabled the dramatic cab-forward profile, unique proportions and exceptional interior space—yet it is unmistakably a Jaguar. We wanted to design the world’s most desirable EV, and I’m confident we’ve met that challenge.”

- Ian Callum, Jaguar Director of Design

A long wheelbase of 2,990 mm with an overall vehicle length of 4,682 mm gives the vehicle a similar footprint to the Jaguar F-PACE, but with the interior space of a larger vehicle. Its bold proportions, emphasized by the available 22-inch wheels, are a direct result of the advanced electric drivetrain and architecture that underpin the vehicle. Available premium LED headlights emphasize the clean lines of the I-PACE and feature a compact design that incorporates the trademark Jaguar ‘double-J’ signature daytime running light design.
