The Jaguar E-Pace has been spotted again, this time wearing its production body unlike previously, where it wore Range Rover Evoque overalls. The E-Pace will be the brand’s second SUV, and will slot in under the larger F-Pace, hence the suggested name.
Despite the camouflage applied on this prototype, many of the F-Pace’s design cues appear to be adopted by the Evoque-sized SUV, which will ride on same LR-MS platform used by the new Land Rover Discovery Sport.
As such, the E-Pace will have Jaguar Land Rover’s (JLR) range of Ingenium petrol and diesel engines to choose from, paired with a ZF-sourced nine-speed automatic transmission. Front- and all-wheel drive models will most likely be offered, with the possibility of an all-electric version joining the line-up in the future.
Exterior highlights visible here include a rectangular-shaped front grille, slim headlamps and taillights and a five-door body. Elsewhere, we see a high shoulder line, steeply-raked rear windscreen like its larger sibling and some pretty sizeable alloy wheels.
When it finally debuts (likely at the end of 2017 or early next year), the E-Pace will look to take on the likes of the Audi Q3, BMW X1 and Mercedes-Benz GLA. The E-Pace isn’t the only SUV that Jaguar is working on, as the all-electric I-Pace is also in its pipeline, first previewed at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show.

Small or big sibling does not matter coz when the car arrives in Malaysia the price will be astronomical high.
