2000km on and we are really getting to know the Jaguar I-Pace. But, can you really live with an EV in an apartment setting? Only one way to find out.
It’s one giant leap for Jaguar with its first electric vehicle, but is the mid-range I-Pace a viable step for a buyer with $130,000 to spend on a luxury SUV?
I won't lie. I'm excited for a future containing alternative-fuel vehicles – whether they're electric or hydrogen powered... Or even powered by hot air. For too long now, Tesla has dominated the luxury EV market, leaving entry-level EVs to other brands. Makes sense, given how trendy it has now become to get on the EV bandwagon...
