The 2019 Jaguar I-Pace Is a Great Car That Happens to Be Electric
When it's not Chevy's new design language or the latest Phillips tale keeping us up at night, we stare at the ceiling and ponder if an electric car can match the character of a vehicle powered by tiny explosions. Complexity begets personality in machines. Can the eerily smooth and silent ever measure up?

Jaguar's electric I-Pace offers our best hope yet. It'll never be mentioned in the same breath as Miata or Cayman or Corvette, but the I-Pace whisked us away from traffic lights and through sweepers in ways that left our oil-stained palms tingling. While the EV genus is anchored to Earth by half-ton battery packs, the all-wheel-drive I-Pace builds off that stability with impressive athleticism. There's a natural fluidity to its body motions, organic tugs and lulls in its steering weight.

Agility and grip don't always go hand in hand. Nor do thrills and speed. But the I-Pace delivers the experience to match the numbers. This 4951-pound quasi-crossover claws through corners at 0.90 g and hits 60 mph in 4.3 seconds. Neither of those metrics is as impressive, though, as what happens when you stand on the accelerator from 30 mph. The speedometer jumps with the immediacy of flipping a switch and a jolt strong enough to stun the person whose right foot made it happen. The I-Pace's only dynamic misstep happens during the final 5 mph, as the friction brakes graunch and heads bobble when coming to a stop.
