Jaguar Land Rover Malaysia announced the availability of the 2023 Jaguar I-Pace electric vehicle with the Stealth Pack at the beginning of this month, and now we are able to bring a gallery of live images featuring the British brand’s EV outfitted with the optional appearance package.
Starting at the front, the styling package brings a front grille that replaces the traditionally-styled unit with its array of pins, with a singular flat panel that is finished in Atlas Grey, thus more typical of electric vehicles in appearance.
The appearance kit also brings side mirror covers, rear diffuser housing and door and bumper mouldings in black, along with the Jaguar leaper logo also in black. While the car in official images from the Stealth Pack announcement earlier this month was shown with silver two-tone alloy wheels, the car photographed here wears a set in gloss black.
The Stealth Pack for the 2023 Jaguar I-Pace is priced from RM12k, and this is an option that can be specified on either of the two variants on sale in Malaysia, the Black LE at RM460,800 and the HSE at RM498,000. Notable upgrades on the higher-specification variant is air suspension, Performance specification heated and cooled 14-way power adjustable front seats in Windsor leather, and a Meridian 3D surround sound system.
Both variants get the same powertrain specification that is a dual-motor AWD setup that outputs 400 PS and 696 Nm of torque, propelling the I-Pace from 0-100 km/h in 4.8 seconds, and through the standing quarter mile (400 m) sprint in 12.4 seconds.
This draws energy from a 90 kWh battery that yields a maximum of 470 km on the WLTP cycle; AC charging at up to 11 kW from 0-100% takes 8.6 hours, while DC charging goes up to 100 kW, bringing 125 km of added range in 15 minutes.
The I-Pace is now also offered with financing packages with interest rates as low as 1.23% per annum. What is your preferred styling for the Jaguar I-Pace – the blacked out trim of this Stealth Pack, or the traditional chrome brightwork on the launch vehicle? Let us know in the comments.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
In terms of styling alone, this is still probably the best looking EV SUV around. Will never buy anything from JLR even if I could afford it (for reliability reasons), but I do admire their exterior designs
haha…sorry im laughing. the front look…
Is this outdated car still around? I’m really surprised they are still selling it. This price with this spec how to compete with Merc and BMW?
Nice design and color. But because its Jaguar I’ll never buy it. Garenti breakdown punya brand and continuous money pit.
90kWh battery with 470 km range is very poor returns. I can’t imagine that this car is so inefficient.
Maybe JLR is being very conservative with their range.
An inefficient motor has a huge impact on range – most of the EV conversation today is about battery capacity but not much talk on motor efficiency.
Motor efficiency re
:
An example would be:
Subaru Solterra AWD (71.4kWh) = 365km range (6.9s sprint)
Hyundai Ioniq 5 AWD (72.6kWh) = 430km (5.1s sprint)
in fact the eGMP models are one of the few cars where people are easily achieving the rated efficiency. most of the time you get 80-90% of what’s advertised.
An inefficient motor has a huge impact on range. most of the conversation today is around battery pack size rather than motor efficiency.
I suppose slapping on a larger battery is an easier near-term solution for manufacturers as refinement of a motor takes more time and effort than adding battery cells. Overtime, more efficient motors could bring costs down without needing massive battery packs.
One example is this – both fitted with 20″ wheels on EPA test cycles (even harsher test than WLTP):
Subaru Solterra Touring AWD (72.8kWh) = 357km EPA (6.9s)
Hyundai Ioniq 5 AWD (72.6 kWh) = 412km EPA (5.2s)
Despite having a similar battery capacity and drag coefficient, the Solterra has lower real world range on top of having a performance deficit. Motor efficiency goes a long way.
