Jaguar To Reveal E Pace Compact Crossover In Riskiest Car Launch Ever
Posted by Zaran Tarapore on Jul 13, 2017
The all-new Jaguar E Pace is set to make its global debut tonight in London by attempting to complete a 270-degree barrel roll through the air. Joining the brand’s PACE family of Crossovers, the E Pace follows the successful F Pace and all-electric I Pace that is set to go into production in 2018.

Ian Callum, Director of Design at Jaguar, said: “The combination of sports car looks with Jaguar performance will ensure that the E PACE stands out. Every Jaguar is designed to excite the senses, and we think the E PACE will do just that, albeit with its own individual character.”
Despite several failed rehearsals and numerous broken ribs, British stunt driver Terry Grant will attempt to spin 15 meters through the air – a fair follow-up to his previous stunt that saw him nail a record breaking 62-foot loop at the launch of the Jaguar F Pace in 2015.
Rival to the Audi Q3 and BMW X1, the Jaguar E Pace features All-Wheel-Drive technology and an all-Ingenium line-up of petrol engines, as well as a suite of connected technologies and safety features. As per material made public, the brand has subjected no less than 150 prototype crossovers to more than 120,000 hours of testing on four continents – the famed Nurburgring included.
