I’m going to order mine soon. Fell in love when I rented one for an extended period of time when I was getting work done on one of my vehicles. I was thoroughly impressed, despite it not being a top tier model. I’ll be ordering the R-Dynamic S loaded!
Have to agree with you. I’ve had mine for two years and still love it. I figure in a year I’ll look to getting the updated version. It’ll be my last car, and I want to go out with Grace, Pace and Space. Lol
We just got a Bluefire Blue P340 here in the US. So glad we chose it over a Q5. It's so much more fun to drive and way more distinctive than the same old thing everyone else has. The 2021 interior refresh was what sold it.
Having watched the full review, owning a MK1 fpace and ordered a 2021 this is all over the place. E.g. You can get the option to drop the seats from the boot. Comments about a couple of cases in the boot is also well off, we got 5 full sized cases in ours. Not hating - just more observant from perspective.
Nice review😉👍 I just ordered F Pace R Dynamic Black hybrid our second car and I like this interior amazing😍 We have been two Range Rover and this new Range Rover 2022 has same interior than Jaguar😉👍
Recently sold my XE 25T R-sport. It was a beautiful car. Just had a single issue (coolant sensor) which was replaced under warranty in my 4 years of ownership. The new F-Pace looks even better with that interior and standard 5 yr warranty. I am hoping to get the SVR version. Bit (probably more...lol) of convincing to do with my other half who is more interested in RR sport.
cant tell how good it is since facelift but previously if you had sat in the cabin you know it is of lower built quality compare to German brands. Drives and rides pretty good but depending on what engine-level you are going with. I ended up with a glc43, more powerful and cheaper as no need to add any optional pack compare to Jag's long list of options even on its top spec (svr was not available back then but it would have to compare with 63s. unless you are a Jag fanboy, you need to sit in and drive GLC, X3 and Q5 and maybe one of the LR of your target powertrain to know which is your pick
No USB charging ports in the back for a premium SUV at a premium price??? WTF is wrong with some of these premium car brands? To 99.9% of people that is totally unacceptable.
Has quality improved on the new F-Pace? If I remember JLR have had quality problems over the last few years. Even the new CEO (ex: Renault) has admitted the previous quality issues!
They need to provide an industry leading warranty to save themselves from the reliability curse. Personally I am so frightened on stories around JLR that I don't feel comfortable on their products even with a 5 year warranty and I do like their cars a lot!
Like a supermodel, looks good, hard to maintain, definitely not a wife type. You may only use it 50% of the time after initial 6 months. This thing breaks down a lot.
Brit here - JLR are getting better but they're not there yet. You do need deep pockets but they're one of the few car manufactures these days that remember cars are supposed to look good.
I don’t know if it’s because of Canadian markets and UK markets but I find it really confusing. Every body keeps saying it only has wired CarPlay when I’ve seen a dozen video showing that it clearly has wireless CarPlay and it connects instantly as soon as you connect to your, Bluetooth
Now im quite interested in the P250 lol, but is the Z note you said synthetic exhaust note pumped through the speakers? And how is the ride now compared to rivals like the GLC?
Beautiful inside and out. Seems a cut above the Germans in terms of style and desirability. Not sure about the depreciation (not that anything in this segment is going to do brilliantly in that regard) - but these deserve to do well.
Just brought one today with the 3.0 supercharger hybrid turbo doing 0-60 in 4 seconds. Can’t wait to get out in it. Great review however just to point out an oral sense has nothing to do with the car unless you’re licking the windows 😂😂
I've had my F Pace 2.0d R Sport. The car is very nice but let down by inferior quality parts, and after sales service. The car has had rear brake pads and calipers replaced, due to corrosion. This was at 24,000 miles and 2 years old, car now 4 years old 27,000 miles and due for replacement. Plug in hybrid perhaps.
Petrol 4 cylinders in anything larger than a small hatchback or econo car is just not right. I don't think you tested for a car full of people plus luggage. THEN you will feel how UNmotivated it is. But it's nice to know how special this car is vs the main rivals. good review.
With modern turbo petrol fours that really isn’t the case. With 365Nm this one has more torque than an old school atmo V6. And it isn’t just Jaguar. Try for yourself sometime, I’m sure they’d let you chuck a whole bunch of stuff in and take it for a test drive. Still, no doubt the sixes are especially strong.
@@chasingcars i came out with this because i m free from favoritism as no specific better auto makers were mentioned. Jaguar and Range Rover do share common drawbacks in maintenance after purchase. This is crucial to SUVs' ranking.
Tom, how is NVH vs main rivals - X3, GLC, Q5? I want quiet luxury, idk about road holding etc etc. is it the quietest? Is it the most ‘lux’ feeling ride?
Am i only one here who is pissed by the steering wheel's controls missing commands ? and with so many bugs with infotainment ? Lag, Android auto often needs to be reconected, sound system has some troubles as well. Very dissapointed from such a luxury brand ! Everything alse is really great but it might become deal breaker for me if jaguar wont update and improve bugs for pivi pro !
@@internetapocalypse4885 I have had 2 Jaguar XF . One bought new 2013 , and traded on another new one 2016 . I have not had a single issue with either over the 8 years and a combined 130000 klm Both diesels . Great cars
This is what I want to see on The Grand Tour Clarkson May and Hammon having the best 3 of its class repeating and going through the worst places from all TG and GT specials which one survives.
I think Jaguar is kinda underrated these days
I have had mine for over 2.5 years can't rate it high enough, completely reliable, every time i enter the vehicle I think how lucky I am.
can I ask what variant you have? I'm thinking of getting a 6 cylinder
is there a blind spot light in the newer ones in the. base model ?
I’m going to order mine soon. Fell in love when I rented one for an extended period of time when I was getting work done on one of my vehicles. I was thoroughly impressed, despite it not being a top tier model. I’ll be ordering the R-Dynamic S loaded!
@@o0oStillWeRiseo0o Test drove the P250 and it was much much better than I thought. Don't need the 6 cylinder after all

You know the video's going to be lit when it starts with "I'm Tom Baker" :D
Great review Tom. Good to see journalism that takes a position on what is a better car.
Doing my best!
i have a p250 , 2022 model in navy blue 21 inch wheels , very pleased with the car. Not many on the road in nz , great to drive something different
Ordered the updated model can’t wait to get it
Enjoy it, Mark.
Mark, is the updated model a mid-cycle update for 2021 or the did you order the original 2021?
@@r.alexandra2973 what’s the mid cycle update

I second that Tom ...jags are the best looking vehicles ...have a 2021 XE HSE and absolutely love it... this is my next buy
The facelift XE looks awesome

This model is not the premium model, but more of a base model. You have the option to add 2 more USB ports for $99 on the rear console. 😉
Jaguar doesnt retain much of its value tho....may consider buying secondhand instead
Has quality improved on the new F-Pace? If I remember JLR have had quality problems over the last few years. Even the new CEO (ex: Renault) has admitted the previous quality issues!
but can you really buy it when you place an order? how much do you expect to receive the ordered car?
Nice video, I really like this F Pace, this is a nice spec as well.
If Jag increased the warranty to 5 years in the UK they might sell more cars.
They'd go under if they did that
They need to differentiate the in interior more from Range Rover
This car is my 1st love❤️❤️

Are you speaking from experience?
@@tyusrobinson9869 unfortunately yes, will never buy any Jaguar or Land Rover product again, looks fancy, quality is awful.
Curious what model and year did you own? As mine has been flawless and I am a sales rep that drives mine daily .
@@siquanwu3131 what issues did you have? I really did this 21 model.
I don’t know if it’s because of Canadian markets and UK markets but I find it really confusing. Every body keeps saying it only has wired CarPlay when I’ve seen a dozen video showing that it clearly has wireless CarPlay and it connects instantly as soon as you connect to your, Bluetooth
Your watch looks sick! What is it?
Great info, and pleasant to watch.
Much appreciated!
If I ever needed an SUV (Sheesh, let's hope that never happens) this is what I would likely get.
The SVR is a bit of a weapon and sound fabulous 😁
Can't wait to drive the refreshed SVR in a few months when it arrives.
@@chasingcars Some days it must be good to be you 😀

Great review!
We have a friend that had one, but it had a major engine problem and it cost $30,000 to repair. Seriously not worth it
Yikes!
What is the price
Just brought one today with the 3.0 supercharger hybrid turbo doing 0-60 in 4 seconds. Can’t wait to get out in it. Great review however just to point out an oral sense has nothing to do with the car unless you’re licking the windows 😂😂
Nice laggy screen
Jd power reports generally is putting the brand far low in reliability issues. I love this f pace but i hate having a non relialble vehicle
I’m going to see the dealer today!
At last, an alternative to the Germans. Any word on the hybrid?
Great review, as always. Thanks Tom.
Andrew
No plans for hybrid at this stage.
Nice watch! Does it have the wave dial (proper bond watch)?
It does. Also tells the time, which I like.
Are those climate controls touch or physical buttons?
Awesome review mate 🇿🇦
Thank you kindly!
whos their competitors? X3 M40i? Macan?

Is this an automobile commentary or publicity? The video is bragging about the car which has nothing good comparing itself to Swedish and German SUVs.
Oh dear, it seems you’re the biased one

Suddenly it’s that they have drawbacks - before you were saying Jaguar models had “nothing good” about them. Starting to see the problem here?
@@chasingcars Yes, exactly nothing is good in it because of the drawbacks when come to comparison with other popular premium SUVs.

Tom, how is NVH vs main rivals - X3, GLC, Q5? I want quiet luxury, idk about road holding etc etc. is it the quietest? Is it the most ‘lux’ feeling ride?
I found it to be quite serene - and the P400 model goes further with active noise cancellation in the cabin

Jesus, don't you ramble on. The first thing I want to know is its 0 to 60 time and how it drives. I don't care about passenger space.
Friend bought one a few years ago. Extremely unreliable
Yes I've never met anyone who has owned JLR have ever recommended I buy one! How on earth they still sell anything is beyond me. No way I ever will.

Getting famous off of comments day 303, so I can live the dream, live every day like it’s your last🤙
A huge steering which is unattractive.
Jaguar are way off the pace nowadays. Much like Volvo the orientals try to milk the brand name for all they can get.
Seems like it’s gotten uglier over time.
