Red Merle, its not a case of missing the point. The I Pace, as good as it is, connot and never will be a challenge for a Range Rover.

Apart from the front end being pretty ugly that would be a pick up I’d seriously consider. Excellent range, clever use of space and very impressive towing capabilities. Rivian could be a game changer! |

Also, iPace only 292 miles range (vs 410+), 0-60 only 4.5 secs (vs 3secs), starting price £60K (vs £61K), wouldn't want to take that off road, but might leave it in a ploughed field .

But don’t forget in the interview the chap did say the base model was 61K.....then mentioned later the higher power models, I seriously do not believe the base model will give anywhere near 400 miles, not for that price, battery costs are all supplier controlled presently. David

I’ll say it just the one last time and move on - I was talking about JLR’s ability to produce electrical vehicles in general, rather than comparing the off road capabilities of an I Pace with either a Fatty, or this odd ball fusion of a Nissan Navara pick up and Gort Besides, I’m sure that the Gort’s claim to maximum range will be about as achievable as anything either JLR, Tesla or any other electrical vehicle manufacturer comes up with |

They hide it well, but the range of the base model Rivian at £62K is 230 miles....... David Please let me know if my comments upset you, I may wish to upset you again. |

Only 292 (in reality nearer 220-240) is bigger than most bladders / breaks between meals. In 11 months of I-pace ownership I’ve only needed to charge on the go once. The rest of the time I have charged either at home or at destination chargers. WARNING! DO NOT TEST DRIVE AN EV. Internal combustion engines will never step up to the mark again. Gone D3 Gone FFRR L322 Gone FFRR L405 Now on the JLR electric highway .... |
