Jaguar I Pace Charging Cable

The Jaguar i-Pace is an all new car from the big cat brand and their first as a pure electric vehicle. No half measures here, the company have cracked it first time. It’s an SUV and it looks gorgeous. This smart family-sized car uses two concentric electric motors, one on each axle, thus delivering permanent all-wheel drive. Not a cheap car obviously but for those with deeper pockets and who like performance the i-Pace does not disappoint, producing 394bhp and 513lb ft of torque, delivered through a single-speed gearbox. Astonishingly good.

Is charging getting any quicker these days?

Yes, up to a point. This car comes as standard with a home charging cable that can be plugged directly into a domestic plug socket. It’s definitely best to upgrade. The Jaguar uses a Type 2 charging cable, see below, and with a 50kW DC rapid charger of the kind found at most public charging stations up to 168 miles of range is available for every hour of charging. For best charging performance at home, it pays to install a wall box to charge the car overnight. For convenience, the home cable could stayed tethered and an additional Type 2 charging cable purchased for travel. See the range below.

Suppose I forget to charge up when out and about?

Well, it’s just the same as any other car. Run out of fuel and the vehicle stops. Fortunately, like all EV’s, the i-Pace has a battery management system which will provide energy information as range depletes. Where necessary, Eco Mode will be deployed, helping to extend range until a charging point can be found and a charging cable deployed. That’s why it is handy to always carry a 32 Amp cable.

What if the car is left standing for long periods?

It will be fine. The i-Pace can be left unattended for six months. Ideally of course it should be topped up by via the ev charging cable once a month but the battery management system is electronically controlled and uses very little energy when idle.
