The I-PACE will be the first all-electric SUV after Tesla Model X to turn on all the spotlights on itself and will suggest an important entry when it finally turns up in the Middle East, promising sustainable sports car performance, all-wheel-drive agility and five-seat SUV practicality. The I-Pace Concept showed up in 2016 and between then and now it has been rigorously tested across extremes of terrain and temperatures from -40°C to 40°C. The new electric vehicle has over 1.5 million test miles and a further 11,000 hours of rig simulations completed by more than 200 production prototypes. Another revolutionising feature is that the I-PACE can charge from zero to 80 per cent in 45 minutes using a DC 100kW rapid charger!

Designed and engineered by Jaguar Land Rover in the UK, the production of I-PACE will largely remain in the parent country but some of them will be built in Austria as part of a manufacturing partnership with Magna Steyr. I-PACE will arrive in selected MENA markets from late 2019 but will be widely available only in 2020.

Renowned automotive designer and Jaguar Director of Design Ian Callum speaks for the whole of JLR when he owns up that never before has he been so excited for a launch. “The world is watching with great anticipation and I cannot wait for the world to see everything we have achieved with this car. The all-electric I-PACE is not only a pioneer within our business, it promises to revolutionise the industry.”
