Another excellent video! I’ve had my 400 since March last year and, despite some apparent range issues, it’s the best drive I’ve ever owned!

Jaguar made more battery available to use earlier this year in an update after making improvements in the battery management from the eTrophy data. I had a rare (in 2020) long trip in my EV400SE today. The mixed A Road and motorway consumption in heavy rain and sub 10*C temps was about 220 miles/350km.

The Jaguar iPace is literally one of the few EVs I would consider selling my Model 3 for. Maybe in a few more years. It's a well conceived EV that is well engineered to near Tesla levels I would feel comfortable owning. Super cool. Thank you Bjorn.

This is exactly what I did four months ago. Owned a 2019 Model 3 and after two years traded it in for a 2022 I-Pace. It has so many features that significanlty improved my driving experience. Smooth and sharp steering, heated windshield and wipers, cooled seats, digital rear view mirror, blind spot LEDs on side mirrors, 360 surround camera, physical dials for climate, incredible sound system, and Apple CarPlay which is way better than Tesla's OS. Not to mention the I-Pace is a proper luxury car with leather and aluminum accents that elevate the experience. When I bought my Model 3, I felt I'd overpaid. But now I feel like I underpaid for the I-Pace. That's the best way to describe my experience with both cars. Not to mention you actually receive quality service with Jaguar. Tesla doesn't hesitate to leave customers high and dry. I experienced it myself firsthand when I was stood up for a service center appointment. I highly recommend making the switch.

Best EV on the market. These things are absolutely beautiful, dream car!!

Hey Bjoern- just a quick comment on the windscreen wiper function for winter. Actually Land Rover vehicles have had this feature for a number of years. In summer mode the wipers are stacked low behind the bonnet, so if in winter you need to flip them out to scrape ice and snow off the windscreen, then you need them in the winter mode. Also I lived 10 years in Russia in real cold winters and there, many people park their cars overnight with the wipers flicked away from the windscreen so not to to ruin the rubber when they freeze stuck to the windscreen.. hence a few advantages of this winter park mode. I just took delivery of my own 320EV, so enjoyed listening to your short experience with this exact model.

Great, no frameless windows, so should be quieter than a Tesla M3

What’s a Tesla M3

I like the color

I have a i-Pace EV400 since more than a year now. My car has smart climate, it´s not a new feature. But it seems working much more efficient.

If there is one upside to battery tech still not giving as long range as quickly as ICE cars, it's that engineers come up with really clever energy saving measures such as the heating directed only towards occupied seats. I've also seen quite an improvement in smartphone power management. When we eventually get to something like 3x battery energy density or such, we can get so much more out of those batteries because we have to ration our battery energy today. I'm happy to see renewable energy sources getting much cheaper by the year. I find the sustainable future so exciting, because we're also getting much better products overall! Soon these smart BEVs will surpass ICE cars in every aspect.

Interesting. I found winter used to really knock back the range of my Zoe and winter in the south of the UK isn't proper winter compared with Norway. A pity the 320 isn't available in the UK.

Great!

When I started to evaluate BEV, there was an eMobility fair in Town..... with lots of BEVs to test. Unfortunately the I-Pace staff thought they had better things to do during the 3hrs we drove all the other brands then to show up and present the Car.... might’ve had a chance to be a candidate from the specs and design🤷🏼‍♂️ Looking nice though, this 320 2021

Good video Thanks! Does the 320 version offer more range then the 400? It seems so after seeing your video? :)

Really nice car. A little more range and a suc-network, I might buy it... :)

Came for the taco salad review - was not disappointed.

Was the extended time at 100%/3kW balancing the cells?

Great review Bjorn. The 21MY updates are really worthwhile and working. The new PIVI Pro Infotainment is a big improvement and as you say a nice premium drive. BTW I thought the headlights / beam spread looked really good and it a bit better than Tesla

You should test the car with cargo and simulate at least 3 passengers. To test if there is a difference between lighter vehicle and heavier one.

0:32 Polizeiiiiiii!!!!

"Fire up the Pussycat" 😂

The car may be balancing the cells after full charge is complete.

my IPace EV400 has intelligent air conditioning it's a MY20 model - they have always had this facility - you just need to turn it on., it comes on automatically in ECO Mode. The new infotainment in the MY21 car is a significant step forward compared to touch pro duo. the other advantage for our european bretheren is the 11Kw 3 phase mode for the AC charging.

Tesla Model 3 has a tow hitch and 1000 kg tow limit. At least here in NL. I tow a small folding tent trailer every summer (750kg). The ultra fast charging of the Model 3 really helps there. You do need to detach the trailer for supercharging (almost no nose-in chargers). Consumption depends on the aero features of the trailer. Buit if it stays under the trunk line it doesn't add that much.

Hi Björn, just checked my MY2020 I-Pace EV400: It also has double glas side windows in the front. The selective heating was also a feature on the older models, also a air deionisation So better efficiency is done by software I suppose... this software is rolling out to the older models also .... and guess what ... it comes OTA 😎 Also faster charging will come soon to the older I-Pace 😍 Merry Christmas to you & Wify

I was also looking for a car which helps me when I am on the road for business, an integrated charging pass is very usefull, because not everywhere I go is a supercharger available, other charging options must be available and visible in the navigation (with live status of all charging stations). Having the possibility to add waypoints in the navigation is a must. And navigation direction must be projected on the windscreen (I used to have this in my previous X3). At night I expect state of the art Matrix Led lights (masking out when needed). A towbar that can be hided automatically is a very practical feature. A cover for the panoramic glass (roof) is a must to keep out heat and more important cold, I used to have that in my previous X3. All of this was not available in a Tesla, or the sales guy failed to explain it to me. That sales guy explained me a lot, all interesting stuff, nothing that contributes to a pleasant drive.

Although in true jaguar fashion they are losing value worse than just about any car in the market short of a Mercedes-Benz S class so they will become affordable. A 2019 model in USA is already down to the low $40,000 mark nearly $30,000 in lost value in one year 😂
