Jaguar is giving its E-Pace SUV a makeover for the 2021 model year.
The facelifted E-Pace features an enhanced interior, refreshed exterior, the latest Pivi Pro infotainment and a choice of powerful and efficient engines.
On the outside, the new Jaguar E-Pace is fitted with an integrated 11.4-inch curved-glass HD touchscreen that is said to be 48% larger and three times brighter than the previous one. The screen controls the new Pivi Pro infotainment system. Chemically strengthened, the glass screen features two coatings; one which is anti-glare and a second which resists fingerprints.
There is also a new 12.3-inch HD Interactive Driver Display with enhanced graphics and a configurable layout. The interactive driver display works in conjunction with the latest generation full-colour TFT Head-up Display which is brighter, with a larger information area and enhanced resolution.
There is a new Drive Selector as well as a 15W wireless device charger. Driver touchpoints around the cluster are now wrapped in soft-touch materials while the knee side contact area has been sculpted to provide improved luxury and comfort.
Available in all exterior colours, it features 20-inch five-spoke Diamond-turned with Black accent wheels, Black Exterior Pack and a powered tailgate.
On the inside, illuminated Jaguar treadplates, Meridian Audio, Ebony Suedecloth headlining and R-Dynamic Taurus Sport seats in Ebony, Cloud or Deep Garnet all help to set the 300 SPORT apart.
The exterior is fitted with new all-LED headlights that feature ‘Double J’ Daytime Running Light (DRL) signatures, which are available with optional Pixel LED technology. A new grille mesh design with diamond detailing is influenced by the Jaguar heritage logo and features a contemporary Noble Chrome finish, while new side fender vents feature the iconic Leaper emblem.
The rear bumper now features a mesh insert that sits between the integrated tailpipes that are standard with four-cylinder petrol engines. All other engine derivatives gain new slim horizontal blade finishers. Inspired by the all-electric I-Pace, the all-LED rear lights feature Jaguar’s chicane graphic, showcasing the advanced technology and modernity of the overall design.
An advanced 1.5-litre three-cylinder petrol engine is the latest member of the modular, flexible Ingenium engine family, and is available in the E-Pace with plug-in hybrid (PHEV) technology.
The P300e PHEV powertrain combines the 147kW 1.5-litre three-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine and an 80kW Electric Rear Axle Drive (ERAD) motor to deliver a combined 227kW/540Nm and 0-100km/h in 6.5 seconds. CO2 emissions measure from 44g/km and fuel economy is as low as 2.0l/100km (WLTP TEH combined)*.
The compact ERAD motor is powered by a 15kWh lithium-ion battery located under the boot floor. When fully charged it provides up to 55km of all-electric range, enabling the new all-wheel-drive P300e to complete the average daily commute of 30.2km in EV mode without requiring a recharge.
The new E-PACE is also available with a next-generation 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium diesel and the latest 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium petrol engines, all paired with AWD and nine-speed automatic transmissions.
The 147kW D200 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel produces 430Nm.
The 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine is available in two power outputs, starting with a 184kW/365Nm P250 version accelerating from 0-100km/h in 7.5 seconds.
Heading up the petrol engine range is the 221kW/400Nm P300 variant which is available exclusively in the E-PACE 300 SPORT. The range-topping 300 SPORT is 0-100km/h in 6.9 seconds and a maximum speed of 241km/h.
