2017 Jaguar F-Pace Price, Review & Release Date: 5 Reasons Why It's Going to be a Best Seller
The British automaker Jaguar Land Rover is making its foray into the sport-utility vehicle (SUV) market of the industry with the upcoming release of the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace, which was recently launched at the Los Angeles International Auto Show in late 2015, and plans of unveiling at least two more SUVs, the E-Pace and the J-Pace.
The Whitley-headquartered auto company from the United Kingdom is banking on its first-ever SUV, the Jaguar F-Pace, to make a good impression among prospective buyers and create a mark in the hotly-contested segment of the market.
"We fearlessly predict that the F-Pace will quickly become Jaguar's bestseller. It should easily outsell the entire current lineup, which garnered a relatively paltry 16,000 sales in the U.S. last year," wrote Car and Driver in its review of the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace.
And, here are some of the reasons why prognosticating that the Jaguar F-Pace will be the British luxury automaker's new best-seller is a safe bet.
Off-Road Capabilities
For many car critics and enthusiasts, the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace could really give its competitors a run for their money, particularly one of the frontrunners in the race, the Porsche Macan. Apart from having better balance and off-road prowess than the Porsche Macan, it also comes at a more affordable price, notes Master Herald.
Superb Coverage
Just like any other models from the Jaguar catalogue, the F-Pace comes with one of the best coverage in the market with Jaguar EliteCare for your peace of mind. This includes the 5-year/60,000-mile coverage, the Complimentary Scheduled Maintenance and the Complimentary 24-Hour Roadside Assistance.
Efficient and Powerful Engine
According to Jaguar USA, the engine design has the right balance between power and economy. The F-Pace is equipped with the 380HP, 3.0L supercharged V6 for the F-PACE S that delivers a top speed of 155 mph with 0-60 mph acceleration in 5.1 seconds.
Advanced In-Car Technology
Some of the interesting tech features inside the F-Pace include the InControl Touch multimedia system composed of an 8-inch Touchscreen, Navigation guidance, Bluetooth phone connectivity, Integrated text-to-voice, Precise climate control and Jaguar InControl Apps.
It is also equipped with the Meridian 380W Sound System which has 11 speakers, and the advanced Head-Up Display (HUD) system that makes use of laser technology to project a display of information onto the windshield.
Interior Luxury and Space
The materials used in the design breathes off luxury and sophistication like the Siena Tan Perforated Windsor Leather Seats. Other interior features include Configurable Interior Mood Lighting and the opening panoramic glass roof.
The space in the rear seats is also wide enough to comfortably seat three adults, and the seats can be folded in various combinations. The space at the back is 33.5 cubic feet with seats up.
The 2017 Jaguar F-Pace could have a release date sometime in the fall of 2016. The entry-level F-Pace comes at a price of $40,9901. The more premium model, F-PACE PRESTIGE, is available for $48,700 while the F-PACE R-SPORT is priced at $53,9001.
