Minnie Dlamini’s new Electric Jaguar I Pace Specs and Performance
PERFORMANCE
This according to the official Jaguar website, I-PACE is a Jaguar above all else – a true driver’s car. Its electric motors and near perfect weight distribution deliver 696Nm of instant torque and sports car agility.
BATTERY
I-PACE’s 90kWh battery is designed for longevity and supports protracted periods of sustained maximum power. The battery’s position within the wheelbase provides the vehicle with a low centre of gravity, naturally benefiting vehicle dynamics, making I-PACE a true driver’s car.
MOTORS
I‑PACE is propelled by two permanent magnet synchronous electric motors integrated with the front and rear axles. These motors provide 400PS and 696Nm of useable instant torque. With built-in All Wheel Drive traction, I‑PACE accelerates from 0-100km/h in 4,8 seconds (0-60mph in 4,5 seconds).
TRANSMISSION
I-PACE does not require a conventional transmission. Instead, it is all about simplicity. JaguarDrive instantly delivers sustainable acceleration from 0-12.000rpm with no lag and no gearshift interruptions.
ENHANCED BRAKE REGENERATION
To maximise range, I-PACE uses an Enhanced Brake Regeneration system that recuperates almost all braking energy. Once you lift your foot off the accelerator pedal, the system provides regenerative braking, comfortably slowing I-PACE while converting the power generated to optimise the battery’s range.
HEAVY TRAFFIC BRAKING
Driving in heavy traffic is simple – using I-PACE’s Touchscreen, you can raise the level of regenerative braking. The corresponding increase in deceleration means that in stop-and-go traffic, for example, there is far greater control of the car’s speed using only the throttle.
ACTIVE VANES
To give the optimum balance between cooling and aerodynamics, Active Vanes open when cooling of the battery is required, but close when not needed to smooth airflow.
Electric Jaguar I Pace Interior
LUXURY ATMOSPHERE
Throughout the interior, beautiful, handcrafted touches reaffirm the cabin’s luxury atmosphere. Rich, solid finishers surround you and fine contrast twin-needle stitching adds tailored sophistication. At night, crisp white illumination accentuates the exquisite details.
