Verdict

The Jaguar I-Pace costs RM460,800, RM38,000 below the RM498,800 Range Rover Evoque, yet brings 395 hp, 696 Nm and a 4.8-second 0-100 km/h time against the Evoque’s 200 hp, 320 Nm and 8.6 seconds. Its 90-kWh battery is rated for 440 km and supports 11-kW AC and 100-kW DC charging, so it suits buyers able to charge regularly. The Evoque counters with petrol refuelling, a 67-litre tank, adaptive LED headlamps and a larger 11.4-inch infotainment screen. Its RM439 annual road tax undercuts the I-Pace’s RM545.

I-Pace

Pick the Jaguar I-Pace if 440 km of EV range, 4.8-second performance and a 656-litre boot matter more than petrol refuelling convenience.

Range Rover Evoque

Pick the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque if you need a petrol SUV with a 67-litre tank, adaptive LED headlamps and a 21-inch-wheel specification.
