2019 Jaguar I-PACE: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The big news for 2019 was the debut of the I-PACE, an all-new battery-electric SUV and Jaguar's first fully electric vehicle.
About the 2019 Jaguar I-PACE
1st generation, first model year
Jaguar positions the I-PACE as a premium electric SUV that feels more like a Jaguar performance vehicle than a tech experiment. Its core appeal is quick acceleration, standard AWD grip, sleek design, and a roomy cabin made possible by its EV layout. Versus rivals, Jaguar leans on style, handling, and a more driver-focused feel, while still giving the everyday usefulness of a five-seat luxury SUV.
Jaguar positioned the S as the tech-focused entry model, with dual touchscreens, a panoramic glass roof, and height-adjustable air suspension. The SE has leather and added convenience features, while the HSE emphasizes comfort with ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a 15-speaker Meridian audio system. The one-year First Edition serves as the launch showcase, with a head-up display, four-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel, and extended leather trim.
