Jaguar resisted the SUV wave for years, then built the F-Pace and never looked back. This is the premium mid size SUV for the buyer who wants the badge and the design flair of a Jaguar with the height and space a family actually uses. It takes on the German establishment and brings a little more theatre to the fight.
Jenny puts it through the school run and the weekend away, the jobs an SUV lives for. There is genuine room for the kids and the gear, the boot copes with the pram and the shopping, and the cabin feels special rather than merely functional. She notes the F-Pace drives with more verve than most rivals, a hint of the sports car DNA in the family.
This suits the buyer who wants a prestige SUV with personality and is happy to pay for the badge. Pure pragmatists may find the German options more clinical and cheaper to run. The F-Pace chooses character, and for many buyers that is exactly the right call.
