F-Pace is a thrill to drive

Hard to believe that this is a SUV. Excellent performance and a real thrill to drive, especially in dynamic mode. Great acceleration from the start or speed to pass. It will definitely get your heart racing. Jaguar performance!

Bespoke F Pace S

The Jaguar F Pace S is an AWD high performance SUV. Being a Jaguar, the interior is in line with the marque. The exterior, of S model, is dramatic with the 22" wheels and the styling of Jaguar. I have already recommended the F Pace S Jaguar to others. This is a bespoke model, so we added just about every option possible; even self parking an d heads up display.

Most beautiful, and best performing car I owned.

Not only is it beautifully designed and finished inside and out, but technologically advanced and high level of performance. Lots of comfort and driver assist features. The Surround sound system is awesome!

Prior to the Fpace - Infnity Q37

Just owned several days, but love it. This car is beautiful and quite stylish. It has all of the bells and whistles. I just drove through the western North Carolina Mountains in my new F Pace and that was quite thrill!

F-Pace is AMAZING!

I purchased a 2018 Jaguar F-Pace and I love it. I had been eyeballing this vehicle for over a year and finally decided to make the purchase. The vehicle drives great and the features that come standard in this vehicle compared to others in it's class are unmatched. I recommend this vehicle to anyone shopping for a luxury SUV.

Enjoying it deposit some annoyances

I'm 3 weeks into my Premium F-Pace and I have a few gripes: 1. The lack of passive entry as a standard feature on all trims blows my mind. At this price point, it should be standard. 2. I would prefer the gas tank be larger. 300-320 miles a tank is not ideal. 3. The center armrest and glove box are tiny and almost useless. 4. The standard halogen lights on the Premium trim leave much to be desired. Visibility in the dark is not great. Aside from the above-mentioned, I am enjoying my car. It's a beautiful car and I smile whenever I walk up to it in a parking lot. While the technology is not as advanced or responsive as it could be, it's not a deal-breaker. I am also not turned off by the "hard ride" (as others have described it). I know that it's a sporty SUV. If you are looking for a smooth, quiet, cruising vehicle for your family, this is not the car for you.

Jaguar F-Pace Diesel VS Lexus RX350

This review is for the 2018 F-Pace 2.0 Diesel with 7,000 miles. Absolutely no technical issues till this day. Vehicle made in Great Britain, engine Great Britain, transmission from Germany. We are in early 40?s, in the garage we also have the 2016 Lexus RX350 made in Canada, and also no majors problems with this vehicle. Wife prefers RX350 because of roomier interior, quieter and softer ride, more luxurious interior feel, high end materials, brave exterior design, best LED headlights in the industry, overall: ?women?s car?. l did notice about 80% women are RX?s drivers. I also liked RX350, but absolutely love the F-Pace. Best driving vehicle I have ever owned, pure pleasure on the turns. In my opinion best looking in the segment, handles like a sport sedan due to torque vectoring and sport suspension. Accelerates like another brand's gas V6?s due to turbo charger, and very high torque 318 ft. lbs. Absolutely great all weather performance due to standard Land Rover?s AWD technology (rear axle based!!). Very sensitive steering wheel specially in Sport mode ? this vehicle really listens to you and you fully feel the car (Swiss precision). Great navigation system, many great features from 5 year free Jaguar Remote App, panoramic glass roof, large trunk. And absolute segment leader (including Hybrids) 32 mpg city, 38 mpg highway. Very cool movable gear selector knob, and the main thing: British prestige. Yes, there are small issues I did notice: interior should have more high quality (remember, mine is base model...), auto start/stop don?t remember your preferences after engine restart, not too roomie and no reclining rear seats (mine is base...maybe because this is sport not family car), rear and side visibility not to good, and weak base headlights (mine are not LED), mediocre base sound system, unpainted cheep plastic door handle inside, not very pleasant interior smell (mine is artificial leather, maybe that?s why). Quick conclusion: This vehicle is designed for people who enjoying driving, not for family soft and luxury cruising. It has legendary Land Rover off road roots, and the famous handling from Jaguar's long motor sport history. If you are bored of German or Japanese luxury cars, looking for something not thirsty, unique and prestige, handsome and fresh, sporty performing, handling, steering and accelerating, 5 years free maintenance and 5 years b2b warranty, F-Pace 2.0 Diesel is definitely for you. If you have a family, or looking for softer, quieter and luxurious ride, buy RX350. But please remember one thing: on winding roads driving super comfy RX350 you will be slower at least 30 mph. And last interesting info I just learned about how ?boutique? this brand is: Jaguar sold in the whole USA the same amount of cars as BMW sold just in the Chicagoland in the same period of time. Would you like to drive something unique? Thanks for reading, and good luck with your decision!

Smiling after driving SUV

Most fun driving SUV. This vehicle handles better than many cars on market. Fast, solidly planted on the road. This has the 3 L supercharged engine. Compares well to performance cars (I've also owned Porsches and BMWs and for an SUV the F-Pace is comparable). My own take is this competes well with the Macan with more cargo space. Standard equipment and interior could be better esp considering the price. But given choice between bells and whistles vs performance, comfort and practicality , I'll take the latter with the F-Pace. To early for me to comment on reliability

stylish and quiet

this car is very stylish. Comfortable with all the bells and whistles. It has very minimal road noise which surprised me for an SUV. Would highly recommend.
