What's wrong with the Jaguar I-Pace?

Well, there is nothing wrong with the Jaguar I-Pace. But why doesn't it sell all that well in South Africa? There are many reasons, ag and I don't need to get into that. I would rather chat about the car and what makes it pretty great. Barring the boot. With that spare tyre in there it is not great!

On my 2nd Ipace and had a few minor issues over the years but our cars have been solid. Our service center is also amazing. Love, love the car.

@Yhoothoob 13 күн бұрын

Can I ask what made you move to the second one?

@frankparisi2433 13 күн бұрын

@Yhoothoob Sure. We love the luxury, performance, descent range, fast acceleration, excellent storage, tons of goodies like hud, 360 camera, etc. We went from a 2020 to a 22. We wanted the updates like the entertainment center, etc. It was a good upgrade, and the 22 updated model has fewer headaches. We absolutely love the car. Drives amazingly well - Close to my c7 corvette. We are just sad that jlr is stopping production in 25.

To be fair, the spare tire is a Jaguar option and not many I-pace models were outfitted with it…for obvious reasons.

@@julietmcguire shame as Jaguar “was” a great brand, that really seems to be in the shadow of Land Rover, and lost its way somewhat. That’s coming from someone who has had 3 XJs and an XF

the full size spare is an option in the UK. maybe it's mandatory in South Africa?

Cool review. Much better than all the other car journos in SA. I drive past a Jaguar Land Rover showroom regularly, and I have not seen a Jaguar on the floor in quite some time. I believe Jaguar is closing or recalling dealer contracts worldwide, which would be concerning for a potential new Jaguar buyer. It seems like Jaguar was too late or has been left behind in the electric crossover/suv race and I think they have ditched sedans altogether. Not a great place for them to be in and I wonder if Tata (or whoever owns the business) will continue producing Jaguars.

The I-Pace is a superb car, just a shame Jaguar didn’t update the electrical system as the years went by.

Yeah, the issue with this i-Pace was the price. I still love it though, and my poor rand earning self just saw one on cars . coza... the cheapest one is still R650k (faints)! But for R650k, I will actually pull the trigger on this vs some of the other newer EV's. There's just something, like you said, about saying "oh the Jag is mine". (Loved this review, nearly died when you told us what's burning x)

I think they were lazy to just chuck the spare wheel under the boot😆, typical JAGUAR. I guess one would have to live with it and compromise 😆, I too love my boot space, I want to put my stuff in, and so when there's a spare wheel in the way - I too would be frustrated and cringe as well 😆.

@julietmcguire okay, cool, I've watched the entire video 😅... I still think R2.5m is still a lot for such a small car, regardless of the badge 😀. The new Volvo EX30 for me makes a lot of sense if I were to pick an EV... I think manufacturers should be making more of hybrid cars instead, whether plugged-in or self charging ,they will be successful in the South African market.

Can South Africans stop pretending to care about Jaguar? 1.8 million when it launched...with a spare wheel in the boot pretending it's a F Type Cabriolet.Now priced at 2.4 million, that's insane.This is South Africa ,we don't care about EVs. They are expensive and unattainable to most.

@thetad1242 18 күн бұрын

The second hand I pace is selling at R800k with a mere 15000km . Leave the 2m one. Duh and the expensive part is not something happening at JLR
