Jaguar i-pace prototype on M50

MickyD'bo · 06-10-2018, 02:28 AM

I was following this for a while on my journey back from Swansea on Friday. Looked very cool to be fair. I thought they were fully on sale and launched until I noticed the "prototype vehicle" written on the front and rear.

Guess they must be launching soon as this clearly had zero camouflage.

We had one @ the Coventry Motorfest last weekend, Jag had it on their display

Does look good and getting good write ups - but new technology and JLR reputation for quality are a potentially bad combination...

Yes they're 'out' now for a while I thought. Been a few on show at the Trafford Centre for a look around. It's smaller than I'd imagined but in a good way.

Hope it works out, JLR could do with some battery saws support for the diesel backup.

Offical launch date was only last week - hence flood of reviews. First customer cars been delivered September. Reports first 2 years of production already sold out - like virutally every EV on sale today demand is out stripping supply.

I see a few regularly... I work in Hinckley and they seems to be driving up and down the A5 a lot. Seen a lot of RR and LR's too.

My guess is that they go to Mira

In this case though, maybe production targets will be hit rather a work of fantasy
