Overall I think the jaguar F-Pace is a great SUV.
Likes:
-Comfortable ride
-Lots of room to move around (I'm 6'1, 200lbs)
-When changing to dynamic adaptive driving mode you really feel the difference. It feels very much like a sports car. Well planted and little to no body roll in the corners
-lots of cargo room
-incredible 10.2inch nav screen in the center stack and a 12inch display screen replacing the analogue guages in front of the driver.
- I cannot deny this is a sexy SUV
-Most situations 90% of the power is at the back wheels so you really get a sense of the power. I have only driven a handful of RWD cars so I really liked this. I got a little sideways on one corner and it came back beautifully.
- well priced I think for what you get. My build came to $63k although I would lease it.
- When you come on to it, the exhaust note is unreal! Nothing you would expect from an SUV.
Dislikes:
- Coming from a small car it feels like driving a bus
- overall interior, although useful looks bland
- better back up camera in my current CLA.
Overall, I would give this SUV a 8/10. I really dislike SUV's and have never wanted one. However, after driving one last night I see the appeal. Also, this is the size of an SUV but handles very much like a sports car which is what is so appealing. Whether you're in the market or not, if you need to kill time on a Saturday I suggest going out for a drive in one.
Looks like if I place an order, I need to submit the order by December to line up with my current lease end.
Vise, we also stopped at porsche to look at the competition. We did not have time to get into a Macan last night but the price of those is a big jump from the Jag and we are trying to be more budget conscious with this purchase haha. I will never get the rental income property I want to buy if I keep blowing all my money on cars hahaha.
