Jaguar Land Rover Automotive plc says it will begin selling its Jaguar I-Pace all-electric crossover vehicle in China in the fourth quarter of 2018.
The vehicle is powered by two electric motors that deliver a combined 395 hp and 513 lb-ft of torque. The system can propel the I-Pace from zero to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds. Jaguar says the car will be able to travel about 240 miles per charge.
Later this year JLR also will begin Chinese production of its piston-powered E-Pace small SUV/crossover in Changshu. The carmaker assembles four other models in China: Land Rover’s Range Rover Evoque and Discovery Sport SUVs, and long-wheelbase versions of Jaguar’s small XE sport sedan and midsize XF sedan.
