“The exterior looks fantastic, the interior is top notch. The camera system is great, the pivi pro system is the best on the market. The overhead parking system and rear view mirrors are useless in the dark.”
2021 Jaguar E-PACE: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2021 Jaguar E-PACE is a major mid-cycle refresh that brings updated styling, a redesigned cabin, and a curved 11.4-inch touchscreen across the lineup. Jaguar also simplified the trim range and revised the chassis for a smoother, quieter ride.
About the 2021 Jaguar E-PACE
1st generation (2018-2024), major 2021 refresh year.
Jaguar positions the E-PACE as a compact performance SUV: a small luxury crossover that puts style, brand character, and a more playful driving feel ahead of maximum cargo room or bargain pricing. It is meant for shoppers who want all-weather confidence from standard AWD, a driver-focused cabin, and Jaguar design cues in a size that is easier to live with in town than a larger luxury SUV.
The P250 is the straightforward entry model, with a 246-hp turbocharged engine, AWD, heated front seats, wireless phone charging, and the new 11.4-inch touchscreen. The P250 SE adds built-in navigation, a power liftgate, and more driver-assistance equipment, while the P300 Sport stands out with 296 hp, dark exterior trim, a head-up display, and handling-focused hardware.

“I wish I could actually open the sunroof like I used to do with my F-Pace. The E-Pace sunroof does not open and is fixed just a huge long glass atop.”
