Enhanced connectivity for Jaguar F-PACE

News

The Jaguar F-PACE is now ‘more desirable than ever’ with enhanced well-being, connectivity and driver assistance technologies across the range.

Like all other F-PACE models, the newly launched R-Dynamic Black is offered with a choice of refined, efficient and responsive Ingenium powertrains, from the 163PS mild hybrid (MHEV) four-cylinder diesel to the 404PS plug-in hybrid (PHEV) petrol.

Jaguar is also introducing more technology across the F-PACE range to enhance occupant well-being and comfort: there are new smart features which further improve interior air quality, and new driver assistance systems which provide greater levels of support. Connectivity will soon be made even more convenient with the addition, via software-over-the-air updates, of wireless Apple CarPlay®. Wireless Android Auto™ will become available at the same time.

In a development of the Cabin Air Ionisation and PM2.5 filtration systems introduced to F-PACE last year to remove allergens and odours and capture ultra-fine particles, the new Cabin Air Purification Plus system includes two additional features to make cabin air quality even better, improving occupant wellbeing and comfort.

There is Cabin CO2 sensing, which monitors and regulates the carbon dioxide level in the vehicle interior. The concentration can increase over time if the climate control system operates in recirculation mode for long periods, such as can occur when the vehicle is driven through areas with polluted air. To ensure the levels remain within desired limits, the feature can enable more fresh air to be admitted.

The F-PACE is available with the four-cylinder petrol P400e plug-in hybrid powertrain as well a range of four-cylinder and in-line six-cylinder petrol and diesel Ingenium engines, most of which feature 48V mild hybrid systems for even greater refinement and efficiency.

The P400e PHEV model is the most powerful and efficient in the core F-PACE range. The 300PS petrol engine and the 105kW electric motor integrated into the automatic transmission produce a combined total output of 404PS and 640Nm of torque. This enables acceleration from 0-60mph in only 5.0 seconds (0-100km/h in 5.3 seconds) and CO2 emissions and fuel efficiency from just 49g/km* and up to 128.4mpg respectively.

When plugged in to a fast charger, it can charge at up to 32kW DC, taking the battery from 0-80 per cent charge in as little as 30 minutes.
