\u201cThey still make that thing?<\/em>\u201d is a remark that\u2019s usually associated with cars and platforms that might\u2019ve made an initial big splash and then gradually faded away, or possibly just produced on autopilot for more years than usual as it was easy money for its respective automaker\u2019s accounting department. (For example, did you know General Motors still makes the Chevrolet Malibu? Look it up, it\u2019s true.) Whichever it is, the timeline always seems like it’s seven, eight, or even stretched out to 10 years old. One that checks this box is the Jaguar I-Pace.<\/p>\n But wait, hold on a second\u2014this sleek five-door SUV has only been around since 2018. Sure, that was before everyone\u2019s biological clocks were magnetized by COVID (not literally, take off the tinfoil hat), but the Coventry, UK firm\u2019s first EV is only six years old now. But EV technology\u2019s moved rather quickly ast since the twenty-teens, so it\u2019s understandable that the Jag may seem a bit \u2026 well-established by now. And it\u2019s getting to be quickly surpassed by new rivals in terms of range, charging speed and overall tech.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Its sales numbers aren\u2019t exactly complimentary, either, as Jaguar sold just 59,441 I-Paces, globally, between 2018 and 2022. During the same period, its closest original competitor, the Tesla Model 3, sold\u2026 I\u2019m not even going to look this up. It\u2019s a lot. No wonder we seem to mostly only see the Jags in the USA as fleeting (pun sort of intended) Waymo robotaxis. We also know it’s due to be axed entirely soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n Which begs the question: Is the I-Pace still relevant? There are quite a few luxury EV SUVs to choose from nowadays. How does the ol\u2019 cat stack up in its latest iteration, the 2024 Jaguar I-Pace EV400 R-Dynamic HSE? Recently, I had the opportunity to find out that it\u2019s still got a place in the market.<\/p>\n
