Pre-Production Jaguar I-Pace Spied at the Nurburgring

Pre-Production Jaguar I-Pace Spied at the Nurburgring

The Jaguar I-Pace may have already entered production, but Jag is still hard at work developing the EV, with a test mule having been recently spotted at Germany’s Nurburgring.

Earlier this month, Austria’s Magna Steyr confirmed production of the Jaguar I-Pace has begun, with the British automaker’s first electric car set to arrive in Europe later this year. First shown as a concept at the 2016 L.A. Auto Show, the production Jaguar I-Pace will bow in September in Frankfurt. Although the vehicle is still sitting underneath camouflage, the production I-Pace is expected to stay close to the concept, especially considering how quickly it headed to production.

Jaguar has announced its electric SUV will feature a 90-kWh battery pack that should be good for over 310 miles (500 kilometers) of range, but that’s on the generous New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). In North America, expect it to return a more realistic, EPA-estimated 220 miles (354 km) on a single charge.

Look for two electric motors powering the I-Pace, delivering around 400 horsepower, helping it go zero-to-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in about four seconds.
