😂😂😂😂😂😂exactly what I was thinking. Jaguar cant even keep the climate knobs working past 50K in regular cars but you want me to buy an all electric car from them.
An iPod touch from 2009 was less laggy than those climate controls. You would think that automakers would know how to make an infotainment that responds immediately to your inputs in 2018. I’m baffled that this is still a problem.
There's quite a lot of graphics to process with these multi-screen systems, not to mention background computational tasks and power management, all of which accounts for processor performance. If they really wanted to eliminate screen lag they can boost the processor speeds or multiply the core count - but that requires more battery power, so there is a tradeoff.
Matthew Hynds sorry, no. This is an inability to write correct software, nothing more nothing less. The graphics to run a zippy climate control need 5 cents worth of computing power. This was even done in 1979. There is no excuse at all for laggy 2019 product.
That threw me off as well. If an automaker is using a screen it should work better. Also, using screens for everything makes it feel less safe in my mind as it is less intuitive to blind touch. That and the slow response make it inconvenient if you need to watch the road.
Yeah using that climate control makes the car look like it’s been used for years and is not updated. Yet it’s brand spankin new. They should be able to do better than that.
And this is a new car. We all know what happens with computers over time...they get slower and slower and buggier and buggier. Automotive industry has a reputation to use 10-15 year old IT infrastructures (in ECUs and TCMs and stuff). Now they are forced to have tablet PCs instead of normal controls. A giant leap, no wonder they can rarely get it right. God save us.
Found this old video and thought I would share my experience with the 2019 IPace. In a word, it’s been fantastic. Doug accurately portrays the pros and cons of the vehicle. I shopped a Tesla model three and Y prior to buying the IPace, but couldn’t get my head around the minimalism for the sake of minimalism that is the interior of the model three and Y. The IPace interior looks like a real car. I have three screens integrated tastefully into the dash plus a heads up display, and all four of these sources of information are configurable. I have information where I need it, switches where it makes sense to have them, and where I need them, and I don’t have to go into a tacked on iPad to do literally everything on the vehicle. I have a real blindspot warning indicator in the rearview mirror, as opposed to a camera image in the lower part of the screen on the iPad in a Tesla. Try checking your left blindspot by looking down and to the right sometime. It just doesn’t work. The layout, materials, and luxury of the interior is an order of magnitude better than the Tesla with its iPad center screen that looks like an afterthought. I have leather, radar, and ultrasonic sensors which Tesla recently - and ridiculously - eschewed. I’m coming out of a 2003 Audi RS6. If you know this car, you know it’s fast and handles well. Compared to the Audi, the iPace is actually a bit quicker off the line, not quite as punchy at high speeds, and handles arguably as well. The only place where the Tesla beats the iPace is the auto pilot system. But frankly, I bought this thing so I could drive it, not be chauffeured. I’ll trade the less capable auto pilot system in The iPace for everything else it does better than the Tesla any day of the week. TH-cam should let me post a picture I took of my iPace parked next to a Model Y. The styling isn’t even close. The IPace looks fluid and organic, designed by Ian Callum, who also designed the latest Aston, Martin sports cars and the Jaguar F type. Jaguar knows how to make cars look good. Tesla knows how to make cars look like dinosaur suppositories. Sure, taste is in the eye of the beholder, but anyone who thinks that the model Y has nice proportions is, well, there’s just something wrong with them.
@@Louie_Vision No unusual battery drain. I try to keep the battery between 20% and 80% but go below or above these numbers for short periods of time on trips. I charge mainly at home (fast charging is harder on batteries than slow charging) but do fast charge on trips, but I try to avoid fast charging when the battery is above 80% as that is hardest on the battery. If out of town for a week or so I leave it at about 70% and it doesn’t seem to drain much, a couple of percent a week maybe. I have 25,000 miles on it and it still shows the advertised 230 range. All this battery management limits usable range so most long trips are taken in my ICE vehicle. The iPace is a terrific second car but like all electrics not the best for seeing Grandma if she is several hundred miles away.
@@glenwoodriverresidentsgrou136 have you had any issues with the 12v battery? I'm eyeing a 2019 with only 18k miles and the history shows that they had the 12v replaced
No 12 volt trouble but I’m thinking of trying to get them to replace the 12volt battery at the next service as it is running out of warranty. They say they only last about 5 years and it will not drive w/o the 12 volt battery working.
I wouldn't even bother with a test drive after seeing that input lag. It's unacceptable even in a significantly older car, make it work well or don't bother trying to sell it. Shame because I like the rest of the car but that trash interface is integrated into everything and makes it all useless.
was thinking that. ping 200 is very generous. We used to play shooters all the time in the early 2000s with a ping of 150-170. feels more like ping of 600ms.
all the online games I play are with 300 ping... so that's definitely an improvement...... of course I also die a lot in these online games... but that's because my team mates are bad...
An electric vehicle from a company that historically has the worst reliability of their electronic systems. I can't wait for customers reliability ratings.
Tony Tierno I have a feeling the complaints will stay based in the dashboard and not with the drivetrain. Tesla has terrible reliability ratings because they’ve gone way ambitious on engineering bits and pieces. Jaguar’s design is perhaps a little more plain. The climate control stuff will probably be the first complaint. I don’t think it’ll be significantly less reliable than your average Jag.
Tony Tierno Tesla’s product design isn’t all that fresh anymore. The luster is wearing off a little from what they had a few years ago, so their reliability issues are glossed over less than they used to be. Electric cars for the masses will definitely have their growing pains, even when made by the Germans, but the Audi offerings should be pretty appealing, not to mention those of Porsche and BMW as they try to infuse some driving fun along with electric efficiency.
@@davidspropaganda That's being very generous. Most people think I'm still living in the Edwardian era. These newfangled horseless carriages will never amount to a thing.
as a forklift driver who drives prim. electric driven forklifts, I can't wait to get my hands on an electric car because I am so used to just 1 pedal driving, I never touch the brakes on a forklift unless I need an instant stop for an obstacle like another forklift for example. It saves your brakes and gets you going further, it's amazing regenerative braking
As a recent MX owner I'll say I'm glad to see another option in the EV world. I sat and test drove an I-pace and here's what I think: - I think it looks better than my MX - but that is subjective and not objective. - The I-pace really has no business comparing itself to an X. It's closer to the new Hyundia Kona as far as sizing. My 3 kids feel a little cramped in the X coming off a premium minivan - the I-Pace is even more cramped (especially in headroom). - The seats do feel more luxurious than the X seats unless you have the P100D seats with cooling. - The interior fit and finish is about the same (2016 Xs had new design issues - other than a tight window actuator my X has been squeak free no interior quality issues). The plastic in the jaguar looks cheaper and feels more fragile than in the X (as X has very few buttons to begin with) - Front visibility is a little bit better in the Jaguar when strictly looking at city driving. Back visibility is worse than the X because of the roof rake. The Tesla has no equal for everyone else sitting in the vehicle - my kids point things out on road trips that you can only see through the roofline or that massive windshield. - Jaguar is a little bit snappier off the line. 0-60 numbers show it about .4 seconds faster than my 75x. It's the same as a 100X though. - Jaguar feels a little bit more nimbler. I'm still afraid to scratch my new X so I baby it taking it into parking lots, the Jaguar is just smaller and easier to maneuver. - The controls on the I-pace are too laggy. Several times when testing it would wait 3 to 4 seconds when switching displays. The ergonomics of the X, in my opinion, are just unbeatable though. I did have one display crash on my X which required a reset - so music was down for 2 minutes. It's basically a giant touchscreen computer. Not sure how stable/buggy the I-pace is. - The storage/cargo space of the X is pretty much 1.5x that of the I-Pace. I'm not even sure why Jaguar even bothered with the frunk. I-pace can have a usable roof rack which the X will never have. The I-Pace toying capability is about that of a Camry. X has much better towing options and capability. - My X is the lowly/cheaper 75KWH variant. At 90% charge I have 211 miles of range which oddly was what Doug showed on the I-Pace. But the I-pace has a 90KWH battery pack. So the I-pace has much worse miles/KWH - it uses well over 400watthours/mile. That's disappointing considering it weighs less and holds 2 less seats and has a smaller cross sectional area. That's where the Jaguar styling (which I think looks better) hurts their efficiency. Obviously the I-Pace has more rolling resistance and a high drag coef as well as less optimal battery management - but they haven't been in business for 10 years like Tesla. - The most important thing for me was safety rating. I'm coming off a minivan. I don't really give a rats ass what other people think of the vehicle I'm driving short of me driving a school bus. The engineering that went into designing the Tesla clearly shows if you watch the crash videos. Basically almost no intrusion into where the battery packs are. I still don't trust the self driving system because it is unable to compensate when other humans deviate from normal behavior (like people who decide to do a U-turn on a freeway or switch across 4 lanes in 1 second - the usual driving seen here in Southern California car chase capitol of the world). It is a nice vehicle and I agree with Doug - if you're considering the other "pace" variants this one is the best. If you must have an electric and love Jaguar then go for it. if you want nearly the same capability as the I-pace at about 1/2 the cost (after tax credits) I would go for a Hyundai Kona instead. If you have the money, nothing beats the X 75, and if you need even more range the 100 is available for about 17K more. If you take road trips or have unpredictable trips then the Tesla charging network is superior to all others. Otherwise, daily charging at home is sufficient for any EV for daily use. I disagree with Doug's score though. I don't see the "value" in the I-pace. The Hyundai Kona has more value if you're strictly talking lowest price. The X has more value the second you realize you can't care luggage for you family of 5 to the airport with the I-pace, let alone 6 or 7 people.
Very, very thorough review and I hope people read your comment as well as watch Doug’s video before making any rash decisions and selling their X for an I-Pace or anything of such manner. The I-Pace has much potential but I still don’t think it’s on a Tesla level just yet, but I do believe it’s pushing the market and many, many more options that are driving close to home with Tesla are becoming readily available. Tesla continues to adapt and become better, they’ll just have to keep it up if they want to stay on top; that being said, I don’t see them going anywhere anytime soon. Tesla is here to stay and I truly believe they’ll become as common as your typical Camry within a decade.
I also own a Tesla 75D but a Model S. I agree with everything mentioned in the OP comment. I could be nice and say how good the Jag is (it's far better than all the ICE cars on the market) but if you are considering one over a Tesla, that's cool if you love Jags but Tesla is the better car hands down. I won't go into too much detail but the Jag is about on par with a Tesla from 5 years ago. Hyundai Kona EV and the new Kia EV are seriously better in many ways than this Jaguar. The Koreans are doing amazing work and will probably dominate the EV market as they seem to be far ahead in efficiency and battery technology. Dont get me wrong I love the Ipace but Teslas are VERY special cars.
I purchased a 2019 I Pace this week which had come in off lease. Amazing car that I can attest holds up well after 20,000 miles. I'm impressed that the battery does not appear to have declined at all as it's still showing 230 miles range with a full charge. I never thought of owning a Jag before as I was a little scared about British build quality. This car is built by Magna Steyr in Austria who also build the MB G wagon's, the BMW 5 series and a lot of other luxury cars. As these cars come onto the used market the represent a great value.
Five years is well within the buffer imposed on the battery capacity. You never get to drive the full range on an EV's battery-- they deliberately hold some of the battery capacity in reserve, which is gradually taken up as the battery supply degrades over time. As old cells go bad, the previously untouched cells are activated to take their place. That's why no one sees any degradation in range until 10+ years, when that buffer is finally used up.

@@ivybixler1717 i don't care about supercharging as i only twice in my life traveled more than 200 miles and using superchargers shortens the life of the battery and if you do travel more then 200 miles on a monthly bases i don't think a electric car is for you and if you say its all about being green wheel that brand new Tesla battery comes with 8 years of driving a standard car co2 as manufacturing battery is not Eco friendly and so is disposing of them. that is why Tesla makes there cars in a desert so you don't see it and its also cheaper to make in a hot environment. but i guess out of sight out of mind.
but span What? None of that made any sense. Tesla makes its battery packs in Nevada, but assembles their cars in Fremont, California. While the warranty on a Tesla battery lasts 8 years, Model S drivers who own 2012 and 2013 models with 100k plus miles are reporting only 5-10% degradation, meaning that battery pack could conceivably last 300k plus miles. The packs can then be recycled to make Powerwalls. The I-Pace has horrible electric efficiency, somewhere around 400 wh/mi - it’s significantly worse than the Model X and that seats 7 adults. The I-Pace is simply too heavy.

Welcome To The Madness funny thing is, most are actually very reliable. It’s just you’ve come to believe that a few bad stories mean that they’re all bad. Jags are actually very reliable and always have been.
Looked at both the Tesla Model 3 and the Jaguar I-Pace for my next car and choose the I-Pace. That was six months ago as of May 2020 and 11 K miles the experience so far has been excellent. ZERO problems, excellent build quality, both on the in- and outside. Very comfortably ride yet very quick if you want it to be. Now the temperatures are going up, so has my rang, from about 220 miles in the winter to around 280 miles by May 2020. Am very happy I bought the I-Pace, it's simply a lot more car than a Model 3 which by now are all over the place.
I’m very late, but regardless you get way better service at Jaguar dealerships if anything were to go wrong. Sure, Jaguar hasn’t been known to make the most reliable gas/diesel cars, but EV’s are different. And when it comes to repairs, this is the better choice.
It's pretty much in the same class as a Model Y, and yet less efficient with way less range than a Model X 2000lbs heavier. These Tesla killers can't figure out how to make a proper efficient powertrain.
I am a Model X owner and I welcome the competition. The more uncompromised EVs are offered, the better for all EV manufacturers and the better for the infrastructure development.
A few articles that I’ve seen show the Tesla gets advertised mileage and Jaguar does not. Doug has no idea what he’s talking about by saying it’s better. Tesla battery technology is superior.
Nice car, but seeing how slow the interfaces move, even on the climate control buttons makes me cringe. Legacy automakers need to get a handle on software or they will soon be obsolete.
@@damonnoonan6512 That's just bad excuse. Developing an intuitive UI isn't the hardest job there is. These screen should perform the right way by receiving input by the user and then on-screen instantly change the variable so the UI always stays smooth and the user knows that he changed it. Then in the background a process will start to operate the mechanical part with the variable based on the user input for example setting the A/C to 21 degrees. The UI should never lagg and the software and hardware should be decoupled. Tesla has done this perfectly for years now.

Should probably update the Model X score.... 0-60 in 2.9 should boost the acceleration. Fun factor at a 5 despite that acceleration, the incredible front windshield view, and the unreal amounts of torque make it hard to drive without constantly having a smile on your face. The dancing easter eggs/ summon features / falcon doors are unlike anything else on the market and the cool factor needs to be looked at again too.
yea acceleration aside you're comparing the tesla against proper sports cars and supercars, an SUV is just simply not gonna make it with cool factor after all its a fucking SUV they all handle like shit.

I wouldn't even bother with a test drive after seeing that input lag. It's unacceptable even in a significantly older car, make it work well or don't bother trying to sell it. Shame because I like the rest of the car but that trash interface is integrated into everything and makes it all useless.
I noticed that too, but weird enough my dad's i-pace has a p damn snappy touchscreen,l with barely any inputlag
@@frankthetankricard I test drove one the other day, there was no perceptible lag when using the infotainment system.
Noticed that too
The climate controls feel like playing an online game with 200 ping
was thinking that. ping 200 is very generous. We used to play shooters all the time in the early 2000s with a ping of 150-170. feels more like ping of 600ms.
This actually looks very similar to the Velar.
all the online games I play are with 300 ping... so that's definitely an improvement......
of course I also die a lot in these online games... but that's because my team mates are bad...
But if it didn't have crappy electronics, would it really be a Jaguar?
@@malter87 know that feeling. I live in Australia now and that means to say goodbye to most online games...

An electric vehicle from a company that historically has the worst reliability of their electronic systems. I can't wait for customers reliability ratings.
Tony Tierno I have a feeling the complaints will stay based in the dashboard and not with the drivetrain. Tesla has terrible reliability ratings because they’ve gone way ambitious on engineering bits and pieces. Jaguar’s design is perhaps a little more plain. The climate control stuff will probably be the first complaint. I don’t think it’ll be significantly less reliable than your average Jag.
@@wilmotown yes, as reliable as an average jag. Tesla is horrible as of late. Waiting on audi's product for comparison.
Tony Tierno Tesla’s product design isn’t all that fresh anymore. The luster is wearing off a little from what they had a few years ago, so their reliability issues are glossed over less than they used to be. Electric cars for the masses will definitely have their growing pains, even when made by the Germans, but the Audi offerings should be pretty appealing, not to mention those of Porsche and BMW as they try to infuse some driving fun along with electric efficiency.
One word for you regarding Jaguar electrics and bad reliability: Lucas
all the blame for shite electronics is on Lucas tho
The lag on the control screens, biggest comfort killer.
nobody talks about the lag
And that you cant see any of the screens in sunlight. Good thing most of these wont be sold in sunny California....ohhh wait

As a recent MX owner I'll say I'm glad to see another option in the EV world. I sat and test drove an I-pace and here's what I think:
- I think it looks better than my MX - but that is subjective and not objective.
- The I-pace really has no business comparing itself to an X. It's closer to the new Hyundia Kona as far as sizing. My 3 kids feel a little cramped in the X coming off a premium minivan - the I-Pace is even more cramped (especially in headroom).
- The seats do feel more luxurious than the X seats unless you have the P100D seats with cooling.
- The interior fit and finish is about the same (2016 Xs had new design issues - other than a tight window actuator my X has been squeak free no interior quality issues). The plastic in the jaguar looks cheaper and feels more fragile than in the X (as X has very few buttons to begin with)
- Front visibility is a little bit better in the Jaguar when strictly looking at city driving. Back visibility is worse than the X because of the roof rake. The Tesla has no equal for everyone else sitting in the vehicle - my kids point things out on road trips that you can only see through the roofline or that massive windshield.
- Jaguar is a little bit snappier off the line. 0-60 numbers show it about .4 seconds faster than my 75x. It's the same as a 100X though.
- Jaguar feels a little bit more nimbler. I'm still afraid to scratch my new X so I baby it taking it into parking lots, the Jaguar is just smaller and easier to maneuver.
- The controls on the I-pace are too laggy. Several times when testing it would wait 3 to 4 seconds when switching displays. The ergonomics of the X, in my opinion, are just unbeatable though. I did have one display crash on my X which required a reset - so music was down for 2 minutes. It's basically a giant touchscreen computer. Not sure how stable/buggy the I-pace is.
- The storage/cargo space of the X is pretty much 1.5x that of the I-Pace. I'm not even sure why Jaguar even bothered with the frunk. I-pace can have a usable roof rack which the X will never have. The I-Pace toying capability is about that of a Camry. X has much better towing options and capability.
- My X is the lowly/cheaper 75KWH variant. At 90% charge I have 211 miles of range which oddly was what Doug showed on the I-Pace. But the I-pace has a 90KWH battery pack. So the I-pace has much worse miles/KWH - it uses well over 400watthours/mile. That's disappointing considering it weighs less and holds 2 less seats and has a smaller cross sectional area. That's where the Jaguar styling (which I think looks better) hurts their efficiency. Obviously the I-Pace has more rolling resistance and a high drag coef as well as less optimal battery management - but they haven't been in business for 10 years like Tesla.
- The most important thing for me was safety rating. I'm coming off a minivan. I don't really give a rats ass what other people think of the vehicle I'm driving short of me driving a school bus. The engineering that went into designing the Tesla clearly shows if you watch the crash videos. Basically almost no intrusion into where the battery packs are. I still don't trust the self driving system because it is unable to compensate when other humans deviate from normal behavior (like people who decide to do a U-turn on a freeway or switch across 4 lanes in 1 second - the usual driving seen here in Southern California car chase capitol of the world).
It is a nice vehicle and I agree with Doug - if you're considering the other "pace" variants this one is the best. If you must have an electric and love Jaguar then go for it. if you want nearly the same capability as the I-pace at about 1/2 the cost (after tax credits) I would go for a Hyundai Kona instead. If you have the money, nothing beats the X 75, and if you need even more range the 100 is available for about 17K more. If you take road trips or have unpredictable trips then the Tesla charging network is superior to all others. Otherwise, daily charging at home is sufficient for any EV for daily use.
I disagree with Doug's score though. I don't see the "value" in the I-pace. The Hyundai Kona has more value if you're strictly talking lowest price. The X has more value the second you realize you can't care luggage for you family of 5 to the airport with the I-pace, let alone 6 or 7 people.
Nice well articulated reasoning.
Very, very thorough review and I hope people read your comment as well as watch Doug’s video before making any rash decisions and selling their X for an I-Pace or anything of such manner. The I-Pace has much potential but I still don’t think it’s on a Tesla level just yet, but I do believe it’s pushing the market and many, many more options that are driving close to home with Tesla are becoming readily available. Tesla continues to adapt and become better, they’ll just have to keep it up if they want to stay on top; that being said, I don’t see them going anywhere anytime soon. Tesla is here to stay and I truly believe they’ll become as common as your typical Camry within a decade.
Can you do this as a book XD
I also own a Tesla 75D but a Model S. I agree with everything mentioned in the OP comment.
I could be nice and say how good the Jag is (it's far better than all the ICE cars on the market) but if you are considering one over a Tesla, that's cool if you love Jags but Tesla is the better car hands down. I won't go into too much detail but the Jag is about on par with a Tesla from 5 years ago.
Hyundai Kona EV and the new Kia EV are seriously better in many ways than this Jaguar. The Koreans are doing amazing work and will probably dominate the EV market as they seem to be far ahead in efficiency and battery technology. Dont get me wrong I love the Ipace but Teslas are VERY special cars.

I like its looks but really a SUV? Hardly, more like a hatchback.
An obese hatchback.
thats why its called a crossover, aka American wet dream for whatever reason
When a hatchback has too much cholesterol
It is not a SUV. The Jaguar I-Pace has the same dimensions as the Tesla Model 3. Hardly a Model X competitor.
A morbidly obese hatchback
SUV??? Ehh I don't really think so, maybe cross-over? There's as much ground clearance on that as a Prius.
RambleOn1970 It has air suspension, no? It will raise up, if it does.
I can see that it does have air suspension.
I purchased a 2019 I Pace this week which had come in off lease. Amazing car that I can attest holds up well after 20,000 miles. I'm impressed that the battery does not appear to have declined at all as it's still showing 230 miles range with a full charge. I never thought of owning a Jag before as I was a little scared about British build quality. This car is built by Magna Steyr in Austria who also build the MB G wagon's, the BMW 5 series and a lot of other luxury cars. As these cars come onto the used market the represent a great value.
Five years is well within the buffer imposed on the battery capacity.
You never get to drive the full range on an EV's battery-- they deliberately hold some of the battery capacity in reserve, which is gradually taken up as the battery supply degrades over time. As old cells go bad, the previously untouched cells are activated to take their place. That's why no one sees any degradation in range until 10+ years, when that buffer is finally used up.

@@ivybixler1717 i don't care about supercharging as i only twice in my life traveled more than 200 miles and using superchargers shortens the life of the battery and if you do travel more then 200 miles on a monthly bases i don't think a electric car is for you and if you say its all about being green wheel that brand new Tesla battery comes with 8 years of driving a standard car co2 as manufacturing battery is not Eco friendly and so is disposing of them. that is why Tesla makes there cars in a desert so you don't see it and its also cheaper to make in a hot environment. but i guess out of sight out of mind.
but span What? None of that made any sense. Tesla makes its battery packs in Nevada, but assembles their cars in Fremont, California. While the warranty on a Tesla battery lasts 8 years, Model S drivers who own 2012 and 2013 models with 100k plus miles are reporting only 5-10% degradation, meaning that battery pack could conceivably last 300k plus miles. The packs can then be recycled to make Powerwalls.
The I-Pace has horrible electric efficiency, somewhere around 400 wh/mi - it’s significantly worse than the Model X and that seats 7 adults. The I-Pace is simply too heavy.

Looked at both the Tesla Model 3 and the Jaguar I-Pace for my next car and choose the I-Pace.
That was six months ago as of May 2020 and 11 K miles the experience so far has been excellent. ZERO problems, excellent build quality, both on the in- and outside. Very comfortably ride yet very quick if you want it to be.
Now the temperatures are going up, so has my rang, from about 220 miles in the winter to around 280 miles by May 2020.
Am very happy I bought the I-Pace, it's simply a lot more car than a Model 3 which by now are all over the place.
Thank you. I'm dealing with this dilemma right now
I’m very late, but regardless you get way better service at Jaguar dealerships if anything were to go wrong. Sure, Jaguar hasn’t been known to make the most reliable gas/diesel cars, but EV’s are different. And when it comes to repairs, this is the better choice.
That is way smaller than the Model X...
It's pretty much in the same class as a Model Y, and yet less efficient with way less range than a Model X 2000lbs heavier. These Tesla killers can't figure out how to make a proper efficient powertrain.
It’s actually significantly smaller than a model S
@@Singuy888 we don't know how big the Model Y will be.
Musk said it's based off the Model 3 like how the X is based off the Model S. So we know it's a 5 seater compact SUV like this Ipace.

@@damonnoonan6512 That's just bad excuse. Developing an intuitive UI isn't the hardest job there is. These screen should perform the right way by receiving input by the user and then on-screen instantly change the variable so the UI always stays smooth and the user knows that he changed it. Then in the background a process will start to operate the mechanical part with the variable based on the user input for example setting the A/C to 21 degrees. The UI should never lagg and the software and hardware should be decoupled. Tesla has done this perfectly for years now.
lol you tesla fanboys are so stupid. Legacy automakers will be obsolete because of a silly animation? Clearly that's the most important part that makes or breaks a car..
@@MrMaxusy Thank you for assuming I'm a Tesla fanboy. The main reason for my argument is that all cars are "fine" now. The only thing really setting them apart is stuff like software, and this clearly sucks. And yes, animations and aesthetics do matter.

It's like people calling the Model X an SUV when in reality it is a minivan.
Doug, the type of guy to make "vroom vroom" noises while driving an electric car.
Also drove it, liked the cockpit, loads of plastics in the back, economy drastically differs from reality. Its a good ride tho, looks are subjective.
Overall I'd preffer the Audi if the Tesla is not your deal.
The meaning and concept of SUV has changed a lot not sure if this is evolution or overkill
Clearly evolution. Best of hatchback and SUV.
SUVs ARE overkill
SUV = Crossover
this honestly just looks like a hatch back with big rims
5:36 The 4th VIN number on the left side of the trunk :)
This is way smaller than a Model X though, so comparing them apples-to-apples might not be that fair
Yep, iPace is a heavier, less efficient, more expensive (or slower) Model 3.
Way smaller is right - the Model X has a massive 70% more cargo space than the i-Pace. That difference is more than the i-Pace trunk volume itself.
@@house9120 Yea you can have a 3rd row in a model x
It's not even comparable to the Model S. Barely more space than the Model 3.
Just wait for the 40k model Y comes out and beat the crap out of this car.
Nah I prefer a 20 year old V12 Jag which will break down every 2 miles.
How can this "SUV" be as big as a model 3? 🤔
Then the model 3 is a SUV aswell
Zigis Jm can the Model 3 go off road?
@@edipires15 can this?
This thing is just a hatchback with an air suspension. It's worse than a Model 3 in every other way.
Yup עידן חסון
@@edipires15 A regular Subaru will destroy this pathetic hatchback off-road any day of the week, and it'd be probably be like 10x cheaper. This Jag SUV and all others like it are just toys for city soyboys and soccer moms with money.
Don't Model X's have a third row of seating? Other than both having battery power, these vehicles really should not be compared.
At base price, model X is a 5 seater with two tires. That said, the storage in the back (and the front) is SIGNIFICANTLY larger.
Jag Ipace can go proper offroad, Tesla X cant go offroad
Jaguar I-Pace is better than Tesla
@@davideselvi3906 Not if you want to tow something. The 750 kg tow rating for the ipace is ridiculously small for an SUV. The model X tows 2250 kg.
Even the model 3 has a higher tow rating (910 kg).
You forgot to mention teslas charging network across the U.S. which is growing every year. Where you gunna charge your jag on longer road trips?
He does mention it 25:23
You seem to forget that Tesla encourages other EV manufacturers to take advantage of their existing charging network, it's not exclusive to Teslas
@@JOLuthi you can't charge any other car on Tesla super charger...
@goodfella21f Ah I didn't know that. Why wouldn't they though? That seems like a smart move
Finally, an EV from a company that actually knows how to build cars and not fashion accessories. Even more to come from Audi and Porsche. Desirable, reliable, high-quality EVs. Good times ahead for the environment and automotive enthusiasts.
Weird seeing Jaguar and Reliable in one sentence
So Jaguar decided to print their name on the vent switches like anybody cares, but they put a sticker on the sides of the car? English people at their finest.
and look on which side of the road they drive, and how the coppers don'y have gubs.
A four year old video of a great car that prefigures what all the other manufacturers have since offered. Truth to tell, the range is not fantastic. Everything else is. And this car is SO much more attractive than the BMW iX, Audi e-Tron or Mercedes GLS SUV. Yet hardly anyone has bought one. It is a great puzzle to me.
This car definitively does not "out Tesla" Tesla. Come on Doug.
I wouldn't want either of them.

Four years ago today! I wanna buy it Doug.
JLR + electric vehicle = something I wouldn’t touch with a 10ft pole out of warranty
Defliently not, they have never built a range rover that hasn't had to go into repair within the first 3 months.
Doug is type of guy to start a meme "Doug is the type of guy"
Doug, the car doesn't have a rear wiper because the airflow over the roof passes through the rear air spoiler and down the window, which keeps the window free of dust and water. Great review. Thank you. I just sold the same HSE 30 minutes ago in Riverside!
Doug the type of guy who's comment section is filled with

This thing has more tech than Doug has undershirts.
That's a lot and it gets a 9 out of 10.
Love my 2020 SE! Thank you Doug for all of the work and passion you put in to your reviews.
I discovered Jaguar a while back. Owned a Jaguar XK8. Loved it. Jaguar has changed for the better. Gone are the days of the Lucas electrics.
@@poweraccountabilityleague6877 I had a 2013 XJ before my I Pace. One of the best cars I have ever owned!
Those door handles will be a breakdown point.
Every time I open the Velar I think the same shit. Looks like cheap plastic

Should probably update the Model X score.... 0-60 in 2.9 should boost the acceleration.
Fun factor at a 5 despite that acceleration, the incredible front windshield view, and the unreal amounts of torque make it hard to drive without constantly having a smile on your face.
The dancing easter eggs/ summon features / falcon doors are unlike anything else on the market and the cool factor needs to be looked at again too.
yea acceleration aside you're comparing the tesla against proper sports cars and supercars, an SUV is just simply not gonna make it with cool factor after all its a fucking SUV they all handle like shit.
I love that Jaguar made a very unique body shape with their I-Pace without making look like another Tesla clone. It's a modern Jaguar design but with a Jaguar design only for an electric Jaguar. It's stylish and yet still practical. A true exotic luxury car with electric power.
Thats true
Well said
