2017 Jaguar F-Pace review

1. Sports sedan performance 

Flip the drive mode selector to Sport mode and unleash a driving experience you didn’t think a luxury SUV like the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace could achieve. That’s because the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace S supercharged V6 and snappy eight-speed automatic get from zero to 60 mph in just 5.1 seconds (when new). Plus, the rear-wheel bias AWD automatically adjusts power to the outside wheels in corners for improved handling, while the suspension keeps body roll in check. 

2. Excellent functionality 

Packed with the utility and conveniences you expect from a family vehicle, the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace is equipped to handle whatever life throws your way. For example, the 33.5 cu-ft of trunk space opens up to a whopping 63.5 cu-ft when you fold the seats, which is plenty for a wide variety of gear. Or, stash small items within arm’s reach in one of the many cubbies and pockets around the interior of the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace. 

3. Two capable engine options 

Depending on which model of the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace you pick, the standard engine is either a gas or diesel. In the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace 35t, power comes from a 340-hp supercharged 3.0 L V6 engine, while the 20d is powered by a torquey 180-hp 2.0 L turbocharged diesel four-cylinder engine. However, the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace S trim gets a tuned version of the supercharged V6, bumping the horsepower to 380. 

4. Go further between fill-ups 

While it doesn’t have quite the same performance characteristics as the supercharged V6, the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace 20d stretches the distance between trips to the pumps. For example, the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace 20d AWD gets an impressive EPA-estimated 33 mpg highway and 26 mpg city fuel economy.

5. Loaded with standard features 

You’ll find many of the features you want in the entry-level 2017 Jaguar F-Pace. For instance, some convenience features include dual-zone automatic climate control, rain-sensing wipers, a panoramic sunroof, and power-adjustable front seats. Plus, the tech features include an eight-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth^® connectivity, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and an 11-speaker Meridian^® sound system.
