Despite the word ‘electricity’ being tantamount to a swearword this past week, the Jaguar I-Pace recently showed off its charged-up swag sans range anxiety.
The Boomtown Rats ruined Mondays for me. And Eskom’s ruined every single other day this past week. But let’s home in on the first day of the week for now.hit the charts. I spent many hours that year, entranced, as the song was belted out on Radio 5.
You might be wondering why the hell I’m talking about mass shooting sprees in a review of the all-electric I-Pace? For one, I’m trying hard to distract from the disaster called Eskom. The I-Pace has been around for a while and created a proper stir in the world of motoring when it was released back in 2018. Up till this point, the electric vehicle scene had been primarily dominated by Tesla, established in 2003. And then, of course, there was the iconic Toyota Prius — but it’s a hybrid.
On our recent jag-slag adventure, the I-Pace suavely displayed why it’s won almost 70 awards over the past four years, including the European Car of Year in 2019, as well as that year’s highly coveted World Car of the Year. It was also surprisingly good on dirt as well as, of course, on open roads and superb on twisty bends, due to its clever weight distribution, courtesy of the heavy battery’s low placement.
Under the bonnet, the big change is a new 11kW onboard charger which now allows for faster charging times via three-phase electricity supplies — which is, at this point, where we get to a topic that’s become a proper swearword this past week. Audi recently threw down the electric gauntlet by launching its comprehensive range of e-trons. I’ll be keenly following its sales figures.
