About the 2018 Jaguar F-PACE

1st generation F-PACE (2017-2020 pre-facelift), third model year.

Jaguar positions the F-PACE as a performance SUV first and a family hauler second. The core appeal is sports-sedan-like steering and road manners wrapped in a sleek five-seat SUV body with useful cargo room and standard AWD. Compared with rivals that lean more heavily toward comfort, the F-PACE sells on style, driver involvement, and a cabin that feels more like a Jaguar cockpit than a generic luxury crossover.

The 2018 range stretches from efficiency-focused 20d diesel trims and new four-cylinder gasoline models to the 380-hp supercharged V6 S. Prestige models emphasize comfort with leather, heated front seats, and navigation, while R-Sport models add sportier bodywork and more driver-assistance equipment. Portfolio Limited Edition trims focus on luxury and technology, with Windsor leather, upgraded displays and audio, a head-up display, and power-reclining rear seats.

What changed, by category

Powertrain

A 247-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine joins the range in new 25t trims. New 30t trims with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine arrive later in the model year. The base 20d trim is dropped, but the diesel engine remains in 20d Premium, Prestige, and R-Sport models.

Styling

Prestige trims gain a sport steering wheel as standard. The First Edition is dropped, and the prior 35t trim continues under the 35t Portfolio Limited Edition name.

Safety

The options list gains additional driver-assistance features.

Tech

A new 30t Portfolio Limited Edition pairs the 30t engine with a digital instrument cluster, touchscreen navigation, an 825-watt Meridian surround-sound system, and a head-up display.
