2017 jaguar f-pace review and prices Dubai UAE Car reviews

The all-new F-PACE is a five-seater with a spacious, luxurious interior featuring the premium materials, craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail that that gives every Jaguar its unique sense of occasion. Jaguar’s cosseting sports seats are shaped to provide exceptional comfort and support and are available with 14-way adjustment, heating and cooling, and refinements such as Windsor soft-grain leather, contrasting twin-needle stitching and embossed headrests.The  Starting price is AED 229,000.

The dramatic curve of the front door top rolls into the fascia and enhances the cockpit-like feel. The unrivalled range of contemporary trim options includes authentic metal finishes such as Meshed Aluminium and beautiful crafted veneers such as Satin Grey Ash. The sweeping instrument panel features two large, deeply-hooded analogue dials and a central TFT display, or a 12.3-inch HD virtual instrument cluster offering a choice of four visual themes and a full-screen 3D navigation display.

The infotainment touchscreen, which measures 10.2-inches with the premium InControl Touch Pro system, falls perfectly to hand. Ambient lighting, especially with the 10-colour option, enhances the sense of luxury.

A nifty feature that we have never seen is that the car will share your destination, current location and estimated time of arrival (ETA) with others via email or text message. If you are running late of stuck in traffic, the system can automatically follow-up with an update.

And there is more, the F-Pace comes Wi-Fi hotspot, and up to eight devices can be connected at any one time to keep your kids busy on those long drives

Exteriors:

We all love the F-Type design and the shape from the rear has been taken from that. Jaguar has told us that its 81% of parts are unique to the F-Pace.  Developed using Jaguar’s Lightweight Aluminum Architecture, the all-new F-PACE combines purity of line, surface and proportion with F-TYPE-inspired features such as the powerful rear haunches, fender vents and distinctive taillights. The F-TYPE’s influence extends to the all-new F-PACE’s silhouette, with its sleek roof line and short front overhang, reflecting the vehicle’s agile responses. The fender vents are another familiar Jaguar design feature. The  Starting price is AED 229,000.

The bold front grille and the muscular bonnet hint at the performance potential of engines like the 380PS-supercharged V6. Elements such as slender full-LED headlights, this may look very similar to the XE and the XF cool sleek design, the sleek headlights, available with adaptive full-LED technology, feature daytime running lights with Jaguar’s signature ‘J’ Blade graphic. Also an option to get Massive 22-inch forged wheels. The large diameter wheels enhance the purposeful stance.

Comfort and Safety:

Jaguar has worked hard on the safety features to make the driver and passengers of the vehicle, here what they provide.

Adaptive Surface Response: Three modes for enhanced capability

The AWD system in the all-new F-PACE is made more effective still by Jaguar’s Adaptive Surface Response (ASR) technology. ASR adapts the maps of the throttle, transmission and DSC system according to the type of surface.

All Surface Progress Control: Forward motion in difficult conditions

Snow, ice, wet grass: pulling away smoothly on surfaces such as these can be challenging, especially if you’re starting on a slope – apply even slightly too much throttle and the wheels can spin. Even if you do get moving, it’s another challenge still to maintain your momentum. Conventional traction control systems can help, but they only step in after the wheels begin to slip, which is usually too late.

Jaguar’s revolutionary All Surface Progress Control (ASPC) system is completely different. Leveraging the knowledge built up over decades of Jaguar Land Rover experience in off-road technologies, ASPC delivers a step-change in capability because drivers don’t use the pedals: they just have to steer.

Room to maneuver: Park Assist

To help the driver to park in even the tightest spaces, the all-new F-PACE offers semi-automated park assist functions for parallel and bay parking manoeuvres. The vehicle’s ultrasonic sensors first measure the space, and, if the system decides that it’s suitable, will enable the vehicle to steer itself in – the driver just has to control the accelerator and the brakes. The system can also steer the vehicle out of parallel spaces.

 Looking out for you: Blind Spot Monitor and Reverse Traffic Detection

By monitoring the area behind the vehicle, radar can assist the driver in other scenarios too. Medium-range sensors can make overtaking safer by warning the driver of other vehicles approaching fast from behind. As they approach the blind spot, a flashing icon appears in the door mirror to alert the driver of the potential danger. As the vehicle enters the blind spot, the icon becomes solid.

The same medium-radar sensors can help to improve safety at slower speeds too. When reversing out of parking spaces, other vehicles approaching from either side – which may not be visible to the driver – are detected by the radar. If they present a potential hazard, the driver is given audible and visual warnings.

A clear advantage: Laser head-up display

Projecting the most important information onto the windscreen enables the driver to focus on the road ahead. The all-new F-PACE’s laser head-up display (HUD) can put information such vehicle speed, turn-by-turn navigation instructions and speed limits right in the driver’s eye line, minimising the amount of time spent glancing down at the instrument cluster. The colour images are exceptionally sharp and are adjustable both in height and in brightness; the HUD can also be switched off if desired.

Vision of the future: Stereo camera boosts active safety

State-of-the-art vision sensors will enable highly automated and autonomous driving functions in the near future. Such a sensor is fitted to the all-new F-PACE already, and this forward-facing stereo camera is at the heart of many of its advanced driver assistance systems.

Keeping your distance: Adaptive Cruise Control with Queue Assist

 As well as reducing driver workload when cruising on the motorway, the all-new F-PACE’s Adaptive Cruise Control system (ACC) can also help to relieve the monotony of driving in heavy traffic, thanks to the queue-assist function. The long-range radar will maintain a safe distance to the vehicle in front, all the way down to a standstill. Press the accelerator again, and the all-new F-PACE will pull away again and track the vehicle in front, at a safe distance, all the way up to the chosen speed setting.

 

 

Performance:

The F-Pace comes with an option of two engine variants the top of the First Edition and the S comes 3.0-litre supercharged V6 that puts out 380bhp and gives you 450Nm of torque. Other F-Pace models a 3.0-litre supercharged V6 with 340bhp that gives you the same 450Nm of torque. Acceleration in and launch them from 0-100kph in only 5.5 seconds.

The all-aluminum engine that is taken from F-TYPE sports gives immediate throttle response, linear power delivery and unique intake and exhaust sound. All these are hooked up to eight-speed automatic transmissions and all-wheel drive.

 

 

These technologies ensure that the all-new F-PACE delivers the connected steering feel and rear-wheel drive character inherent to Jaguar dynamics DNA, together with handling and performance, which fully exploits the benefits of extra traction when required. This could not be realised with a conventional, full-time AWD system.

 Final Verdict:

Jaguar has really proved its point, the F-Pace is agile and handles well in rough conditions that we were in. The 3.0 litre supercharged engine performed as on paper, but they need to work on the brakes we felt a small lag in stopping. with all the bells and whistles that come with the F-Pace it just might be the leader in its segment.
