Electrek’s Take
We’re fairly excited for the launch of the Jaguar I-Tempo because it ought to be among the many first of a sequence of name new EVs from established automakers constructed to be electrical from the bottom up.
Till now, (if the report is correct) the value was the largest unknown in regards to the car. The corporate beforehand hinted that it could be moderately priced, whereas others anticipated it to be aggressive with the Tesla Mannequin X and the upcoming Audi e-tron quattro, which is due across the identical time subsequent yr.
With these costs, the car is priced equally to the bottom variations of the Mannequin X, however the I-Tempo is a considerably smaller SUV: 4,680 mm size versus 5,037 mm, 1,560 mm peak versus 1,684 mm, and a pair of,139 mm versus 2,271 mm.
In my view, it might have been priced a little bit decrease, however both approach, it’s a welcomed extra choice on the EV market.
