The new Jaguar E-PACE has set an official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title during its
world premiere. The compact performance SUV leapt into the record books with a 15.3
metre-long jump complete with a 270-degree corkscrew-like ‘barrel roll’.

# Guinness World Record Breaker

## Demonstrating the agility, precision and performance of Jaguar’s newest SUV. For the feat was the final test for E-PACE after 25 gruelling months of work. That’s across four continents to ensure extreme durability. Also and that it lived up to Jaguar’s Art of Performance philosophy.󠀁[⌊The new jaguar e pace has set an official guinness world records™ title during its world premiere The compact performance suv leapt into the record books with a 15 3 metre long jump complete with a 270 degree corkscrew like barrel roll⌉](https://i0.wp.com/greenlivingguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/img_1403.jpg?quality=52&ssl=1)󠁿⏎  E-PACE

The E-PACE completed its world record jump at ExCeL in London – one of only a handful
of venues in the UK big enough to accommodate the 160-metre run-up and run-off vital
for the 15-metre leap.

Behind the wheel was stunt driver Terry Grant. All who has completed stunts on many
film sets and holds an impressive 21 GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ titles.

Unsurprisingly, the barrel roll is not one to be tried at home. So months of testing
and analysis were completed to fine-tune the stunt. That’s including achieving precisely
the correct speed of run-up. The ramps were modelled extensively using CAD before
any jumps took place. Terry experienced a G-Force of 5.5 during the 270 degree twist.
Finally and required a 160-metre run up to hit the air at the correct speed.

The Jaguar E-PACE is a five-seat, compact SUV. One that packs the design and performance
of a Jaguar sports car. All into a spacious, practical and connected all-wheel-drive
vehicle.

## Jaguar DNA

Trademark Jaguar driving dynamics and design put the brand’s sports car DNA in a
practical design. One packed with advanced technologies to keep you connected.

The E-PACE is the newest member of Jaguar’s SUV family. Thereby joining the ground-
breaking all-electric I-PACE Concept and the 2017 World Car of the Year. Also the
Jaguar F-PACE – itself launched with a spectacular GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ setting
loop-the-loop in 2015.

The exterior design is inspired by the Jaguar F-TYPE sports car and characterised
by the distinctive Jaguar grille, muscular proportions, short overhangs and powerful
haunches that give the E-PACE a bold and purposeful stance, instantly communicating
dynamic agility. Jaguar sports car DNA is also evident in the fast sweep of the 
roofline and the distinctive side window graphic.
