5 reasons to buy the 2019 Jaguar E-Pace

1. Spacious and comfortable seats 

Both front and rear seats in the 2019 Jaguar E-Pace enjoy plush comfort and the legroom to stretch out and relax with. For example, there is 35.1 inches of legroom in the rear, plus over 38 inches of headroom throughout, so even tall passengers will feel comfortable. Plus, soft leather surfaces and supportive cushioning deliver comfortable seating that doesn’t feel hard after prolonged use. 

2. Lots of standard features 

Plenty of comfort, tech, and convenience features are standard in a 2019 Jaguar E-Pace, so you can get the features you want without finding higher trim levels. That means there’s standard tech like a 10-inch touchscreen, two USB ports, forward collision mitigation, and lake-keep assist. Plus, the standard comfort and convenience features include dual-zone automatic climate control, parking sensors, automatic wipers, and power-adjustable front seats. 

3. A turbocharged engine two ways 

While both trims of the 2019 Jaguar E-Pace are powered by the same 2.0 L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the turbo is boosted in the R-Dynamic P300 trim to deliver 296 horsepower. However, the standard P250 trim still makes an impressive 246 horsepower and gets EPA-estimated 28 mpg highway and 21 mpg city fuel mileage.

Additionally, both engines are paired with a snappy nine-speed automatic transmission that delivers responsive and smooth performance. 

4. Engaging driving experience 

Regardless of which trim of the 2019 Jaguar E-Pace you pick, you can expect a driving experience that matches your mood. For example, if you need some dynamic driving, the 2019 E-Pace R-Dynamic P300 accelerates from zero to 60 mph in just 5.8 seconds, while the sport-tuned suspension keeps the body roll in check for composed handling. Or, when you just want to cruise, the engine and transmission are smooth and refined, matching the drive mode you select. 

5. As functional as it is fun 

Making use of any open space in the interior of a 2019 Jaguar E-Pace, small pockets and storage nooks are ideal for storing small items within arm’s reach. Plus, the second-row seats can fold flat, opening up to 52.7 cu-ft of cargo space. But there’s still 24.2 cu-ft of trunk space with the second-row seats upright, which is plenty for luggage, sports gear, or whatever you need to bring.
