The R-Dynamic and Black Each model comes with standard exterior design features. A lot of new features come as standard, and it’s easier to get to older models. An important part of the first generation of the 2017 F-Pace. The larger SUV from the well-known British brand Jaguar, the 2024 Jaguar F-Pace, comes before the smaller E-Pace. It fits between small luxury SUVs and the larger midsize class. It has more space than compacts and is faster than most midsizes. It came out in 2017 and has had a lot of updates since then, but its age is starting to show. This year, there are fewer F-Pace models to choose from, which makes ordering much easier. A few small features are also new. The F-Pace’s body is stylish and has been around for a while. It looks different from other luxury cars even after all these years because it isn’t as common as some German competitors. There’s more to the F-Pace than just how it looks. It’s designed to handle more sportily than most SUVs. The SVR trim is just as powerful as the Mercedes AMG and BMW M models. The F-Pace can be compared to both small and medium-sized SUVs because it is in the middle of those two groups. Our favorite midsize luxury SUV is the Mercedes-Benz GLE. It’s bigger than the Jaguar, but it’s not quite as sporty unless you choose the more expensive AMG model. The Porsche Cayenne is even faster, but it costs a lot more. The Genesis GV70 is about the same size as the Jaguar F-Pace and costs about the same as other cars in its class. Another good thing about it is that it works well. Pros vs Cons Pros A strong six-cylinder engine gets things done quickly. Speeding up. More space for cargo than most of its rivals. Like a sports sedan, it stops and steers like one. Cons The trim inside makes too much noise. It has more road and wind noise inside than other models. Some controls could be easier to understand. Performance How does the F-PACE move? The F-Pace has always put performance ahead of comfort. With the most recent update to the F-Pace, Jaguar changed the suspension to make the ride more comfortable. That comfort, however, comes at the cost of being able to move quickly. The F-Pace doesn’t thrill, but it’s calm when you turn it. On the other hand, the brakes and steering are great. The road gives you some feedback, and the steering effort is just right, which makes you feel more connected. Smooth stops are easy to make, and the brakes are very strong. A six-cylinder turbocharged engine was put in our test F-Pace. It took six seconds to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour, which is eight-tenths of a second faster than the last supercharged V6-powered F-Pace we tested. The Porsche Macan and the Audi SQ5 are two other small luxury SUVs with six-cylinder engines that are much faster. Comfort How comfortable is the inside of the F-PACE? When it comes to comfort, the newest F-Pace is better than the ones made from 2017 to 2020. Because the ride was rough, driving the old car every day was more of a chore than it needed to be. Even though it’s still not very comfortable, this F-Pace rides more smoothly. There were optional performance seats in our test car that made it look like it belonged in a sports car. They have a lot of padding and support, and they are also very easy to adjust. Their only flaw is that drivers with longer legs can’t add an extra thigh cushion. There are a lot of broken touch-sensitive buttons and dials in the climate control system that you have to push and pull to get to different functions. The auto industry is always looking for new ways to make cars with fewer buttons, but we all know that there is a better answer. The F-Pace does a great job of blocking out outside noise, but we couldn’t ignore the squeaking and creaking of different parts as we leaned on armrests and pulled on door handles in our test vehicle. These sounds can be in a car of different quality and price, even if they wouldn’t bother someone talking. Interior How is the condition of the inside? The inside of the F-Pace looks good. How the controls are set up could be better, though. The infotainment menu isn’t easy to use because of how it’s laid out, and the touch-sensitive buttons don’t always work. The inside is very large and nice. It has more space for your legs in the back than other small luxury SUVs. It’s also easy to get into the best position for driving. But in our test F-Pace, we found a strangely simple way to adjust the steering column that is too good to pass up at this price. It’s visible enough, but not as well as in some other classes. The standard surround-view camera system lets you set the camera to almost any angle you want. Technology What is there to do with technology? Technology was one of the worst things about the 2017–2020 F-Pace. This model is better than the last one because it has a much better built-in navigation system, a good Meridian audio system, smartphone integration for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a lot of charging spots inside the cabin for people’s phones. A lot of the advanced driver aids are standard, but adaptive cruise control costs extra and is not part of the standard suite. We used to think that Jaguar’s driving aids were the best in their class, but now that other systems have gotten better, we think they’re just average. The adaptive cruise can be slow to react when something goes wrong, and the steering assist isn’t great at keeping you in your lane. Storage What is the state of storage right now? The F-Pace’s trunk is surprisingly big—it’s about 30 cubic feet and located behind the back seats. The split arrangement of the back seats (40/20/40) makes it very easy to move car seats and long items. The rear cargo cover doesn’t have to be taken off to install a forward-facing child safety seat because the anchors are easy to get to. If being able to pull things is important to you, the F-Pace will be an even better choice. It can pull up to 5,291 pounds, which is more than most cars in its class. Fuel Economy How well does the fuel work? The F-Pace with six cylinders is more fuel-efficient than cars with engines that are the same size but have been upgraded. The EPA says it gets 21 mpg on the highway, which is 1-2 mpg more than most cars. There is a 17 mpg difference between the SVR and the four-cylinder F-Pace. The EPA’s estimate is correct, as our test F-Pace got an average of 24.3 mpg on our 115-mile mixed-driving route. Value How much does the F-PACE cost? Right away, the answer is “no.” Even though it comes with a lot of great features, the F-Pace is one of the most expensive cars in its class, and it feels like a bad deal. If the interior panels make noise, it makes you wonder about the long-term quality of the build, even if the materials and finishes used are good. Jaguar offers a warranty and coverage for the powertrain, as well as scheduled maintenance and roadside assistance for five years or 60,000 miles. This adds a little value. Wildcard As well as being comfortable and good on gas, the Jaguar F-Pace is fun to drive. We also love the style. It’s easy to tell that the F-Pace is a Jag because its design doesn’t look forced. What is Invoice Pricing's Recommendation? We suggest the middle-of-the-road P400 R-Dynamic S trim because Jaguar cars are known for having thrilling performances. The six-cylinder engine is turbocharged and supercharged, and it performs much better than the four-cylinder engine. In addition to that, it has improved brakes and suspension. Types of the Jaguar F-PACE The Jaguar F-Pace 2024 is smaller than most midsize SUVs in its class but bigger than most small luxury SUVs. It has three trim levels: SVR, P250 R-Dynamic S, and P400 R-Dynamic S. It has two rows of seats that can fit five people. 2024 Jaguar F-Pace Video Review
