What Is the 2024 Jaguar F-Pace?
The Jaguar F-Pace is a five-seat compact luxury SUV for car shoppers who want the space of an SUV with the handling of a sports sedan. Its quick reflexes make the F-Pace a joy to drive, particularly along tight and twisty roads. The engine lineup consists of a standard 246-horsepower, turbo four-cylinder; a turbocharged and supercharged mild-hybrid inline-six with 395 hp; and a mighty 542-hp, supercharged V-8 in the range-topping SVR trim. All-wheel drive is standard. F-Pace competitors include the BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Genesis GV70, Lexus NX, Lincoln Corsair, Porsche Macan and Volvo XC60.

The F-Pace model lineup has been pared down to include only sport-tuned R-Dynamic trims and the high-performance SVR. The Black Exterior Pack, which adds sporty trim, is now standard, as are a heated steering wheel, additional power sockets and a black headliner. Jaguar’s Pivi Pro infotainment system, which includes over-the-air updates, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and a wireless charging pad, is now standard.

Should I Buy the 2024 Jaguar F-Pace?
The Jaguar F-Pace certainly leans toward the sporty side of the SUV spectrum, which is ideal if your priorities include a well-balanced ride, sharp steering responses and a variety of engine choices. It can feel harsh over rough pavement, but most owners will accept the compromise for its engaging driving experience. We think the base turbo-four will be acceptable to most car shoppers, but the thunderous supercharged V-8 in the F-Pace SVR is an absolute riot — so long as you don’t mind its sky-high price or thirst for fuel.
