The numbers are in for the I-Pace: 234 miles and 80 mpg-e.
The Jaguar I-Pace is a pretty car, perhaps the prettiest electric car out there. Perhaps try to keep that in mind when reading the news about its range (234 miles) and efficiency (80 mpg-e city). Perhaps want one anyway? After all, it really is a good looking electric car. Did we mention that it looks good?

The ever less boring XE takes on Laguna Seca
GM fans are not happy. The Cadillac CTS-V used to hold the record for the fastest 4 door sedan around Laguna Seca. Then suddenly Jaguar decided to agree with us in that the XE was in fact mind-numbingly dull, and set out to do something about it. Oh boy, did they do something about it. To prove how much they really meant it, they first drove it around the Nürburgring in anger, then tore up Laguna Seca.

Watch that not-so-boring XE take on the Nürburgring
How to do the Nordschleife in 7 min 21.23 seconds, in a 4 door-saloon/sedan. With two warning lights glowing amber on the dashboard the whole time. The worst part is, the driver looks fully relaxed through it all, as if he’s just taking a drive through the countryside. Which he is, technically, but still.

The Jaguar F-Type and the Keepers of The Faith
Classic car enthusiasts aren’t like other brand or marque enthusiasts. You won’t find us sleeping on the sidewalk outside our marque’s dealerships, waiting patiently in line to purchase their latest model the same day it becomes available.
