F-PACE electric hybrid now with 20 percent more range and enhanced specifications on all models
The Jaguar F-PACE is now more compelling than ever with richer specifications, a simplified line-up, more range for the P400e plug-in electric hybrid and enhanced infotainment.
For the 2024 Model Year, the P400e continues to spearhead the F-PACE’s choice of electrified powertrains, and now has a bigger lithium-ion battery pack, comprising nine modules in place of eight, raising the energy storage capacity to 19.2kWh. This increases the electric-only range from up to 53km to a maximum of 65km – an increase of more than 20 percent.
The enhancement also reduces CO2 emissions and fuel consumption, which are now from only 37g/km and as little as 1.6l/100km (WLTP TEL) 1. The P400e powertrain’s combined output of 297kW and 640Nm torque enables acceleration from 0-100km/h in 5.3 seconds.
The P400e already accounts for more than one in ten F-PACE sales globally, and in countries such as the Netherlands – where electrified vehicles are most popular – this share is expected to reach as high as 98 percent.
All F-PACE customers worldwide benefit from a simplified, more focused model range. Non-R-Dynamic vehicles are no longer offered, streamlining the customer offer while at the same time providing enhanced specifications.
Philip Koehn, Managing Director, Jaguar, said: “As we make progress to reimagine Jaguar to an all-electric luxury brand by 2025, we have been curating our existing products by offering richer and more desirable specifications. The first nameplate to receive this change was F-TYPE as we move towards 2023 and celebrate 75 years of Jaguar sports cars. We now move to F-PACE, an SUV that offers an unrivalled balance of ride, handling, refinement and luxury.
“By Increasing the range of the P400e plug-in electric hybrid by more than 20 percent, it becomes an even more attractive combination of performance, efficiency and zero-tailpipe emissions driving capability, and that’s something we’re very proud of.”
The R-Dynamic SE and HSE models are equipped with 20- and 21-inch wheels respectively, offered with a choice of diamond-turned or black finish.The centre caps on all are now black and silver in place of the previous red and silver. All F-PACE models come with a standard space saver spare wheel with full size spares offered as an option.
F-PACE’s assured, dynamic presence is heightened further with the Black Pack – now standard on all models from the R-Dynamic SE through to the SVR – and which now has the Gloss Black finish applied to the door mirror caps as well as the grille, grille surround, window surrounds, fender vents, rear valance, and rear badges. Another subtle change is the R-Dynamic grille badge updated to a contemporary black and grey instead of red and green.
Inside the luxurious, spacious interior there’s more technology than before. Every model in the F-PACE range has the fast, intuitive Pivi Pro infotainment system, offering seamless connectively through wireless Apple CarPlay®2, Wireless Android Auto™2 and what3words navigation2. Pivi Pro – together with other systems throughout the vehicle – is always up-to-date thanks to software-over-the-air updates. Wireless Device Charging is now standard across the range.
The 2024 Model Year F-PACE range in South Africa comprises: R-Dynamic SE, R-Dynamic HSE and SVR. F-PACE SVR is Jaguar’s pinnacle performance SUV. Powered exclusively by Jaguar’s 405kW 5.0-litre V8 supercharged petrol engine, it is capable of accelerating from 0-100km/h in 4.0 seconds and can reach a top speed of 286km/h.
The South African powertrain range comprises a 297kW four-cylinder petrol PHEV, a 147kW D200 diesel, a 221kW D300 six-cylinder diesel and the 405kW V8 supercharged petrol. All are made at Jaguar Land Rover’s Engine Manufacturing Centre in Wolverhampton, UK.
All F-PACE models feature intelligent all-wheel drive and eight-speed automatic transmissions, and as well as luxury and refinement each one delivers the ideal balance of performance, agility and responsiveness that drivers expect from a Jaguar.
The 2024 Model Year F-PACE will be available in South Africa from early 2023 with pricing to made available closer to the time.
