Overview
The Jaguar I-Pace is an electric SUV with 5 seats, a 90 kWh battery and a quoted WLTP range of 240 miles. On paper it suits families who want space without moving up to a van. Prices start at around £70,000, with leases quoted from about £649 a month.
Its headline specification point is straightforward: big used discounts on a still-handsome SUV. The sections below break the published figures down and set them against the other electric cars in our UK database.
Design & practicality
Bodystyle is an SUV with 5 seats and 656 litres of boot space. Against every EV in the database that puts it among the very best for outright carrying capacity, and among the very best among other SUVs.
Boot space volume is generous enough for family holidays and bulky pushchairs without folding seats down.
Range & charging
The quoted WLTP range is 240 miles from 90 kWh of usable-plus-buffer capacity — below average in the database for distance between charges. Real-world figures are typically 10–25% lower in cold weather and at sustained motorway speeds.
That is a large battery, normally paired with high-power rapid charging. As with any EV, the running-cost picture depends far more on whether you can charge at home overnight than on the charging speed itself.
Performance
The published 0–60mph time is 4.8 seconds, which puts it above average for acceleration here and makes it quick by the numbers. Electric drivetrains deliver that pull instantly from a standstill, so town-speed responses tend to feel stronger than the figure suggests.
Tech & features
We score cabin technology at 7/10 based on published equipment levels, which is among the weakest across the database. The specification highlight is that big used discounts on a still-handsome SUV.
Infotainment is mainstream rather than cutting edge: smartphone mirroring and the expected assistance systems, without headline software features.
Price & value
New prices run from £70,000 to £80,000, with three-year-old used examples from around £22,000 and leases quoted from £649 a month. That sits at the premium end of the electric cars in this database, and the premium end of the SUVs specifically.
Our value score, which weighs the price against range, space and equipment, is 6/10. Whether it works out cheaper than your current car depends on your mileage, fuel price and charging setup — the cost calculator does that maths properly.
