5 reasons to buy the 2018 Jaguar E-Pace
1. Fun to drive
Living up to its name, the 2018 Jaguar E-Pace delivers an engaging driving experience that feels more like a sedan than an SUV. For example, the performance-tuned AWD in the R-Dynamic P300 trim puts power down to the outside wheels in corners to boost handling. Plus, the upgraded turbocharged engine takes the 2018 Jaguar E-Pace R-Dynamic P300 from zero to 60 mph in just 5.8 seconds (when new).
2. Turbocharged engine options
The base level 2018 Jaguar E-Pace P250 is powered by a 246-hp 2.0 L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, while the upgraded R-Dynamic P300 trim boosts the turbocharger, giving the 2.0 L four-cylinder 296 horsepower. The 2018 Jaguar E-Pace P250 gets an EPA-estimated 21 mpg city and 28 mpg highway fuel economy.
3. Plenty of standard equipment
While many different trim packages are available for the 2018 Jaguar E-Pace, the standard trim still includes a comprehensive list of convenience and tech features. For example, some standard features are automatic wipers, parking sensors, dual-zone automatic climate control, and push-button start. Plus, driver aids like lane-keep assist and forward collision warning with low-speed automatic braking are also in every 2018 Jaguar E-Pace.
4. A functional interior
More than just a luxurious SUV, the 2018 Jaguar E-Pace has useful tricks throughout its interior. For instance, small cubbies and storage pockets efficiently use the cabin space for small item storage. Or, the 24.2 cu-ft of trunk space is ideal for luggage or sporting gear, while the 60/40 split folding seats open up to 52.7 cu-ft of total cargo space behind the front seats.
5. Comfortable and spacious passenger area
With just over 35 inches of legroom and 38 inches of headroom in the rear, the 2018 Jaguar E-Pace is a comfortable place for passengers of all sizes. Plus, the well-padded seats are wrapped in soft materials with supportive cushioning that stays comfortable even after prolonged use. Look for the R-Dynamics P300 for soft leather seating and power-adjustable front seats with memory settings for added comfort.
