The Jaguar I-Pace, a trailblazer in the luxury electric SUV segment, has been a familiar sight on Australian roads since its launch in 2019. While it may seem like the same vehicle, Jaguar has continually refined and updated the I-Pace over its lifetime, with the latest 2025 model year offering an even more compelling and polished package.

At its core, the I-Pace is a performance SUV. It’s powered by a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive system that delivers a combined 294 kW of power and a massive 696 Nm of torque. This translates to a blistering 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 4.8 seconds. This instant and silent acceleration is a key part of the I-Pace’s exhilarating driving character.

The I-Pace is equipped with a 90 kWh battery, providing a generous WLTP driving range of up to 470 km. For charging, it supports an 11 kW AC on-board charger for overnight home charging, and DC fast-charging up to 100 kW, which can top up the battery from 0-80% in approximately 40 minutes.

What truly sets the I-Pace apart from its many on-road rivals is its surprising off-road capability, a nod to its Land Rover heritage. The I-Pace is engineered with a series of off-road-focused technologies, including All Surface Progress Control (ASPC), which acts like a low-speed cruise control for slippery surfaces. Its standard air suspension allows the driver to raise the vehicle’s ride height for increased ground clearance when needed. Most impressively, the I-Pace boasts a remarkable 500 mm wading depth, making it capable of confidently traversing flooded roads and small streams.

The 2025 model year brings a streamlined lineup, with the I-Pace now offered in three well-equipped R-Dynamic trim levels: S, SE, and HSE. All models come with the Pivi Pro infotainment system, which supports over-the-air updates, ensuring the car’s software is always current. With its eye-catching design, potent performance, and unique blend of luxury and off-road prowess, the Jaguar I-Pace remains a highly relevant and desirable option for Australian buyers.
