2018 JAGUAR F-PACE INTRODUCTION

What they got

The particular F-Pace is very close to fully loaded. The exterior is coated in deep, vibrant Caesium Blue, a color that was originally intended only for the F-Pace First Edition but high demand made it widely available. It is highlighted with the "Black Package," a $360 option, which swaps out chrome trim on grill

  , window surround and fnder vents for shiny black pieces. Jaguar also added 20-inch wheels, a $1,020 option. since they opted for a full-size spare.$410, they added a fifth one of those wheels in the trunk, too.

Jaguar F-Pace's sporty appearance is enhanced by an athletic engine. The F-Pace S (base price $60,770) comes with the most powerful engine, a 3.0-l supercharged V6 good for 380 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. And of course all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission are standard. Also, as this is S model, the F-Pace has the ability to store configuration for the steering and suspension.

Most of the options in the F-Pace are convenience items such as "Comfort  Package" that adds heating and cooling of front seats, heating and power-reclining rear seats, remote buttons for folding the seats, and a powered, hands-free-opening hatch. The "Luxury Interior Package" adds configurable ambient lighting in the cabin, climate control, an air quality sensor, a pair of 12V power sockets in the rear, illuminated door sill plates, and soft floor mats. The "Driver Assistance Package" and "Technology Package"  and provided  with Jaguar's top-of-the-line Touch Pro infotainment system, Wi-Fi, a Meridian sound system, navigation, parking sensors, 360-degree cameras, and adaptive cruise control. Finally, we also chose the heated windshield and washer jets ($385), and the "Activity Key" wristband ($410) we tried out at last year's Tech of the Year awards. With all these features make the price up to $74,640.

What they skipped

As i said, this F-Pace has nearly every option. The only ones we left out were the tow hitch, wheel locks, some cargo management trinkets and head-up display. They are not planning on dragging anything during the F-Pace's stay, they hope no one's going to jack their wheels (knock on wood), and they do not wish to have much problem keeping their cargo in place. The head-up display would be nice, but Jaguar's isn't the most pleasant to look at, so we're not missing out on too much.

Why they got it

There are few reasons for this. First reason is that it's Jaguar's best-selling vehicle and it's important to see that how it will perform over this period of time. Moreover, since it is based on the same platform as the XE , we are anxious to see how it will compare to the Jaguar sedan. They have spent more than six months with Jaguar's most fuel efficient and the least powerful engine, so we want to see how a more poweful powerplant cope up.
