However the latest developments in battery technologies mean that vehicles such as the i pace are now a realistic proposition for most people.
Jaguar battery electric vehicle.
The i pace has a range of up to 234 miles.
Jaguar i pace owners receive the financial benefits electric vehicle ownership affords.
Next generation electric car technology and our passion for design combine to deliver a zero tailpipe emissions vehicle that remains unmistakably jaguar.
The battery s position within the wheelbase provides the vehicle with a low center of gravity naturally benefiting vehicle dynamics making the i pace a true driver s car.
Vehicles powered solely by a battery are able to achieve maximum power with zero tailpipe co 2 emissions.
The range of an electric vehicle the distance that can be traveled before having to recharge the battery has traditionally been a concern giving rise to the term range anxiety.
Charged from an external power supply and regenerative braking a phev blends the vehicle s engine and electric motor for optimum performance and efficiency.
I pace has a range of up to 470km 292 miles on the wltp cycle.
This is enabled through the combination of a high tech lithium ion battery with a 90kwh capacity and i pace s drag coefficient of 0 29cd.
