IF YOU ASSESS the Jaguar I-Pace on paper, depending on your worldview, you get two different answers to what it is. From the badge alone it can understandably be pigeonholed as a luxury SUV with a strong focus on efficiency and comfort above all else.

Peer over the specs sheet and you get the idea that things aren’t so simple. Near enough 300kW and 700Nm, all-wheel drive, and a 0-100km/h sprint of four-point something seconds. That’s real performance car stuff.

But what works, in theory, doesn’t always translate to the real world. Could the I-Pace be the most overlooked performance car on sale in Australia?

Updated for 2021, the electric Jag has received some tweaks, mainly to do with infotainment, home charging solutions, and additional exterior styling options. We have the cheapest of the identically powered three-variant range, the S, on test, which starts at $127,620 – a chunky $4760 increase for this model year.
