Jaguar I-Pace concept

[2o6]

I'm suprised this was never posted here. It's a BEV concept from JLR. They showed it last year, but this year it's been painted red and somehow that color change makes it look super production ready.


I'd drive it.


Hell, I'd drive it even if it had a gas engine and priced under the XE.

Putting "i" in front of everything was cool for like two minutes in 2006.

Not enough nose.

Not enough nose.

What the point of a "nose" if the car is totally electric and the battery is under the floor, built into the chassis?

I think it looks really nice.

To look like a car worth whatever they are gonna ask for it, rather than something Mr. Dink from Doug would drive. Just 6-8" more sheetmetal behind the front wheels, nothing crazy.

I think it looks good

It looks really good, much more masculine and car-like than most of the electrics on the market.

Now that I've looked at it more...it's like one of 2o6's really old car drawings come to life. Boxy on the ends, short greenhouse/high belt...

I think it looks pretty good.
