The new Jaguar F-PACE is more luxurious, connected and efficient with an assertive new exterior and beautifully crafted all-new interior.
This latest generation features Pivi Pro infotainment and the choice of in-line four and six-cylinder engines including PHEV and MHEV technology.
On the outside, the new exterior design gives the award-winning F-PACE a cleaner, more assured presence and features a new sculpted bonnet.
At the front-end an enlarged grille features Jaguar’s heritage logo-inspired ‘diamond’ detailing, while the side fender vents now feature the iconic Leaper emblem. A new front bumper with redesigned air intakes and dark mesh details visually widen the new F-PACE.
Super slim all-LED quad headlights with Daytime Running Light (DRL) signatures are available with optional Pixel LED technology, deliver increased resolution and brightness. With Adaptive Driving Beam capability, which evaluates the road ahead and automatically adapts the high beam light to mask oncoming traffic or traffic signs, the system can create varying light beam patterns by selecting different LED segments to optimise visibility and minimise risk of distracting other drivers. Premium LED technology is fitted as standard across the range and is available with Auto High Beam Assist on SE and HSE models.
It is on the inside that drivers can experience heightened luxury, with enhanced connectivity and refinement. The new cockpit design is bolder, more dynamic and driver-focused. A new sporty centre console, sweeps up to the instrument panel and incorporates an optional wireless charger and greater console storage. At the heart of the new interior is a seamlessly integrated 11.4-inch curved-glass HD touchscreen which provides driver and front passenger control of the new Pivi Pro infotainment system. The intuitive new infotainment system features Apple CarPlay® as standard and allows customers to connect two phones simultaneously via Bluetooth. Android Auto™ is also available as standard depending on market applicability. Optional wireless device charging with phone signal booster allows occupants to fast charge their smartphone. The system also provides clearer calls through the help of an external aerial.
In terms of comfort, new seats feature wider cushioning, new massage functions and enhanced coverage of the heated and cooling areas. Cabin Air Ionisation improves interior air quality through Nanoe technology, which removes allergens and unpleasant odours. The customer activates the system simply by pressing the ‘Purify’ button.
The new F-PACE is available with the P400e PHEV powertrain as well as the latest four-cylinder and new in-line six-cylinder petrol and diesel Ingenium engines. Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology is also available on selected engines for the first time. All F-PACE models feature intelligent all-wheel drive and eight-speed automatic transmissions.
The new 2.0-litre four-cylinder PHEV model produces a combined 404PS and 640Nm from its petrol engine and 105kW electric motor. The advanced electric motor is powered by a 17.1kWh lithium-ion battery and helps contribute to CO2emissions from 49g/km and fuel economy of up to 130.2mpg as well as impressive performance figures of 0-60mph in 5.0 seconds.
When fully charged, the new P400e is capable of up to 33 miles of all-electric driving, enabling the new F-PACE PHEV to complete the average UK daily commute, of 18.8 miles to and from work, in EV mode without requiring a recharge. Fast Charging (32kW DC) is capable of delivering 0-80 per cent charge in 30 minutes while a domestic 7kW wall box can provide a charge of 0-80 per cent in as little as one hour 40 minutes.
Advanced MHEV technology, available on the four- and six-cylinder diesel engines and featured on the six-cylinder petrol powertrain, uses a Belt integrated Starter Generator (BiSG) to harvest energy usually lost when slowing and braking. This energy is then stored in a separate 48V lithium-ion battery before being intelligently redeployed to assist the engine when accelerating away, as well as delivering a more refined stop/start system.
With MHEV technology, the next-generation 163PS 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium diesel engine achieves CO2 emissions from 163g/km and fuel economy of up to 45.4mpg.
The in-line six-cylinder 300PS diesel engine delivers strong performance from low speeds while returning fuel economy of up to 38.1mpg and CO2 emissions from as low as 194g/km. As well as the competitive efficiency, performance is just as impressive with 0-60mph covered in just 6.1 seconds.
The new diesel engine meets stringent emissions targets, including Euro 6d-Final, thanks to a raft of advanced technologies – series sequential turbos and an advanced after-treatment system make it one of the leading diesels in the world.
For petrol customers, the 400PS 3.0-litre in-line six-cylinder engine produces 550Nm of torque and features the latest engine technologies. An electric supercharger supported by a twin scroll turbocharger and Continuous Variable Valve Lift (CVVL) deliver a strong combination of refined performance and efficiency and is capable of 0-60mph in just 5.1 seconds.
Finally, the 2.0-litre four-cylinder 250PS Ingenium petrol engine produces 365Nm of torque, delivering 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds and CO2 emissions from 209g/km with fuel economy of up to 30.4mpg.
All engines are paired with Jaguar’s eight-speed automatic gearbox, which can be controlled using the steering wheel shift paddles for added driver engagement.
Jaguar’s commitment to creating strong and lightweight vehicles, continues with the new F-PACE. The aluminium-intensive architecture uses recycled aluminium from closed-loop manufacturing for greater sustainability and is an important contribution towards Jaguar’s journey to Destination Zero, a world of zero emissions, zero accidents and zero congestion.
