#FPACE
The F‑PACE showcased its dynamic performance credentials by completing the world's largest 360 degree loop and ‑ in celebration of Jaguar's 80th anniversary‑ lit up the city's skyline with its dramatic C‑X17 inspired silhouette.
The Jaguar F‑PACE is a performance crossover designed and engineered to offer the agility, responsiveness and refinement that all Jaguars are renowned for, together with unrivalled dynamics and everyday usability.
Developed using Jaguar's Lightweight Aluminium Architecture, the all‑new F‑PACE delivers on the promise of the breakthrough C‑X17 concept vehicle and combines purity of line, surface and proportion with F‑TYPE‑inspired features such as the powerful rear haunches, fender vents and distinctive tail light graphics.
The bold front grille and the muscular bonnet hint at the performance potential of engines like the 380PS supercharged V6. Elements such as slender full‑LED headlights, forged 22‑inch wheels and short front overhang carry the design vision of the C‑X17 concept through to production.
The all‑new F‑PACE seats five adult occupants in absolute comfort with generous head and knee room and the luggage compartment volume is an astonishing 650‑litres.
Infotainment and connectivity technology is industry leading. The premium InControl Touch Pro system is based around a 10.2‑inch touchscreen, with a powerful quad‑core processor and solid‑state drive, and runs on ultra‑fast Ethernet. The result is a user interface which is instinctive and extremely quick with sharp and incredibly responsive graphics. Up to eight devices can be connected to the vehicle's super‑fast wifi hotspot at one time.
The navigation system can save you time by learning your commute, offers true door‑to‑door guidance and can even advise others of your arrival time. Navigation can also be shown full‑screen ‑ in 3D ‑ in the 12.3‑inch HD virtual instrument cluster.
The Lightweight Aluminium Architecture gave the Jaguar design and engineering teams ‑ now recognised globally as leaders in aluminium technology and design ‑ the ideal starting point. It was created from the outset as a modular structure, so the wheels can be positioned exactly where they are needed to deliver the proportions, dynamics, and practicality essential for a performance crossover.
The wheelbase and track are not shared with any other Jaguar. At 4,731mm long and with a 2,874mm wheelbase, the all‑new F‑PACE offers the sleek profile and short front overhang characteristic of Jaguar design together with an exceptionally spacious interior.
"By remaining absolutely true to our design principles the all‑new F‑PACE is immediately recognisable as a Jaguar. It offers all of the interior space you would expect ‑ and more ‑ but because of our disciplined approach to surfaces, proportions, and purity of line, we have designed what I consider to be the most balanced, most attractive vehicle in its class. The Jaguar F‑PACE is the ultimate practical sports car"
Ian Callum, Director of Design, Jaguar
The light, stiff body structure comprises 80 per cent aluminium, and is the only aluminium‑intensive monocoque in the segment. Additional weight savings come from the composite tailgate and magnesium for parts such as the cross‑car beam.
The result is that the rear‑wheel drive 180PS diesel manual transmission model weighs as little as 1,665kg and achieves CO2 emissions of just 129g/km. With the 380PS supercharged V6 petrol engine from the F‑TYPE under its sculpted aluminium bonnet, the all‑new F‑PACE can accelerate from 0‑60mph in just 5.1 seconds before reaching an electronically‑limited top speed of 155mph.
The body's high torsional stiffness enables the F‑TYPE‑derived double wishbone front suspension and sophisticated Integral Link rear suspension to perform even better. Together with Torque Vectoring as standard and an Electric Power Assisted Steering system tuned to give the best possible feel and response, the all‑new F‑PACE sets the benchmark for ride and handling.
Even the entry‑level model benefits from monotube dampers as standard, but for even better ride and handling the electronically‑controlled Adaptive Dynamics system measures body and wheel movement 100 and 500 times a second respectively, ensuring optimum damping forces in all conditions.
For the most enthusiastic drivers there's Configurable Dynamics: first used in the F‑TYPE, this feature allows individual settings for the throttle, automatic transmission, steering, and, where fitted, the Adaptive Dynamics system.
"The all‑new F‑PACE is a Jaguar that customers around the world demanded that we make. The targets we set are among the most challenging we've ever had to deliver but I'm proud to say that the all‑new F‑PACE meets or exceeds every one of them.
"This is a performance crossover with outstanding dynamics yet also delivers a smooth, quiet ride. The F‑TYPE‑inspired design combines dramatic looks with a spacious interior and an exceptionally large luggage compartment. Together with our all‑new infotainment system, our most advanced all‑wheel drive system and an outstanding range of active safety technologies, the all‑new F‑PACE makes every journey a better, more rewarding experience."
Kevin Stride, Vehicle Line Director, Jaguar F‑PACE
The all‑new F‑PACE's torque on‑demand all‑wheel drive (AWD) system is Jaguar's most sophisticated yet, and has the highest torque capacity. It features the advanced, in‑house control system first developed for F‑TYPE AWD: Intelligent Driveline Dynamics (IDD). IDD preserves rear‑wheel drive agility and handling character but can seamlessly transfer torque to the front wheels to exploit the performance benefits of extra traction, on all surfaces and in all weathers.
Adaptive Surface Response (ASR), developed from sister brand Land Rover's patented, award‑winning Terrain Response technology, makes the AWD system even more effective in challenging conditions. Integrated into Jaguar Drive Control, ASR identifies the type of surface and optimises the mapping of the powertrain and Dynamic Stability Control system. First launched in the all‑new XF, ASR has been enhanced by a third mode designed for deep snow and gravel. Additional technologies available to ensure for all surface performance include the existing Jaguar systems; All Surface Progress Control and Low Friction Launch.
The all‑new F‑PACE has been engineered to satisfy the most stringent safety standards worldwide and provides exceptional levels of occupant and pedestrian protection. The standard of active safety is just as high, thanks to a suite of advanced driver assistance systems. The state‑of‑the‑art stereo camera at the heart of the Autonomous Emergency Braking system now features a pedestrian detection function ‑ a Jaguar‑first. The stereo camera also enables Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keep Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, an Intelligent Speed Limiter, and Driver Condition Monitor systems.
Key information such as vehicle speed and speed limits can be projected directly into the driver's line of sight by the laser head‑up display.Compared to conventional systems, laser technology is smaller and lighter and the images remain clear even in bright sunlight.
The all‑new F‑PACE also brings the world debut of Jaguar's Activity Key. A waterproof, shockproof wristband with an integrated transponder, this segment‑first, wearable technology supports active lifestyles because it allows the keyfob to be securely locked inside the vehicle ‑ invaluable if you're going surfing, for example, or kayaking. Locking the all‑new F‑PACE using the Activity Key will disable any keyfobs left inside.
