Following the public debut of the Jaguar I-PACE at the Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar announced that the brand’s first-ever battery electric vehicle priced from $69,500 in the U.S. before federal and local government incentives. Yet now it’s even cheaper! They dropped this price! We will also be back with a new story very very shortly. One with an updated price.
Following its public début at the Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar announced U.S. pricing for the 2019 Jaguar I-PACE.
Priced from $69,500 before federal and local government incentives. So the Jaguar I-PACE establishes a new mid-size premium battery electric vehicle (BEV) segment.
As a result, it’s featuring a 90kWh battery. So the I-PACE delivers an estimated range of more to 240 miles and 0-60mph acceleration. That’s in as little as 4.5 seconds. Please note more importantly also on its way to a top speed of 124mph!
I-PACE owners will have convenience of using both AC and DC power to charge their vehicle. One with 0-80 percent charge achievable in about 40 minutes. That’s using a 100kW public fast charger. If you’re home, it’s just over 10 hours using a 230V/32amp charger.
CHARGING AT HOME
In-home charging facilitated by the vehicle’s 7kW on-board charger and a Mode 2 universal cable which will ship with the vehicle as standard. Using the mode 2 charger, I-PACE customers will be able to charge via a domestic 110V or 230V wall socket.
Customers may also chose to have a Level 2, 230V/32amp charger installed inside or outside of their home. To help Jaguar customers have home chargers installed, Jaguar Land Rover will be developing a nationwide network of certified independent electricians, which will be the subject of a future announcement.

A lot is happening i conjunction and with expanding the Jaguar and Land Rover model lineups.

Finally, Jaguar & Land Rover retailers have already begun installation of electric vehicle charging equipment. I saw the dealership in Greenburgh, NY install chargers. They are there selling them and they are on discount.
