Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The Jaguar I-Pace is a compact executive electric SUV with five seats, a 90 kWh battery, 440 km range and 395 hp. In Malaysia it suits buyers who want a premium EV SUV with a simple two-variant line-up rather than a budget choice. Prices start from RM 460,800.

I-Pace in 2026 — what's new

For 2026, the Jaguar I-Pace carries on unchanged in Malaysia. The X590 line-up remains Black LE and HSE, both with a 90 kWh battery, 440 km range, 395 hp, a single-ratio automatic and five seats. The latest Malaysian change is the RM12,000 Stealth Pack from 2023, while 2025 news centres on Waymo converting more than 2,000 I-Pace units into autonomous taxis in Arizona.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should start with the Black LE at RM 460,800. The HSE costs RM 498,800, so the gap is RM38,000, yet the core numbers listed for both are identical: 90 kWh battery, 440 km range, 395 hp, single-ratio automatic and five seats. On paper, you are paying for trim, not mechanicals. Move up to the HSE only if its equipment and cabin finish justify the extra outlay after checking the final spec.

Verdict

The I-Pace keeps the pitch simple: two variants, the same battery size, the same range and the same output. It is not the cheap route into an electric SUV. Its entry price sits above the Porsche Macan Electric, Volvo EX90 and Hyundai Ioniq 5 N starting prices, so buy it for the Jaguar package rather than a price advantage. The Black LE makes the cleaner case.
