2017 Jaguar F-Pace S - One Take

To buy our Limited-Edition TST Vintage Shirt from August 9-19, 2016, click here!
www.teespring.c...
The F-Pace is Jaguar's first move into the dominant crossover market, and quite the pretty one at that. Sharing a chassis with both the XE and XF, the F-Pace is designed more for on-road performance than off-road prowess. Our tester 'S' Model comes with the 380 HP version of Jaguar's Supercharged 3.0L V6, and for a vehicle of its size and weight, drives great!
Jaguar provided flight, hotel, meals, the test vehicle and insurance for this review.

[@DobeliusDobbe]

These SUVs and cross-overs are the cars which make possible for manufacturers to make sports cars. Porsche wouldn't be where it is today without selling out to soccer moms with the Cayenne.

[@eeterp32]

Amen

[@hfr8343]

If I was rich I'd so buy my wife one of these bad boys lol

[@jeffk464]

eh, porsche is part of VW group. As a giant corporation they could just sell SUVs through the Audi brand.

[@TheSmokingTire]

+Jeff K that's not how budgets work

[@wingnutthecat]

plus I found the Macan Turbo S fun to get to beat on. Sales guy at a dealership I've bought an Audi and a VW through insisted I try a 96k Macan that he knew damn well I can't buy. Encouraged me to run it hard. My wife is flailing about in the back telling the two of us that we're morons as I beat the thing pretty hard. Tell you, had I 96k at the bottom of my pocket that day I would've gotten that thing.

[@ChrisDorgan]

Can't wait to pick mine up in September, fully loaded 3.0s, reliability will be great I've had An f type s since 2013 no problems,,same engine in the new f pace, fully loadedF Pace is less than an entry level Range Rover Sport with no extras. a no brainier.

[@gripp9k]

Cooled seats are worth it if you can get it in ANY car. Its a massive upgrade over normal AC for long drives, it keeps you alert, and is super tunable to just you if you have hot/cold passengers.

[@TheTallAbacus]

As drive and motor trend and others switch to paid services Matt just stays awesome and gets all the overflow.

[@DraayXJae]

The drive by shots are so beautiful.... great video Matt.

[@michaelvickers89]

Hell yeah I live close to aspen Colorado ! And everyone who is reading this please make aspen co a place to see in your lifetime because when you see it in person it is exactly as Matt said that it's extremely beautiful!!! Every time I go to aspen it makes me realize why some of the richest people in the world call aspen home. Also if you want to see some of the most expensive houses in the world come to aspen 😎

[@WorldwideDarts]

I agree. I spent most of the 1990's near there. About an hour away. Beautiful place to be and if I ever hit the lottery it's where I'll be

[@bneyens]

I have lived in Denver for 30 years and never been to Aspen, I guess I need to go

[@jeffk464]

I think they call it vacation home.

[@akjdhfkqwrhetkjanfvkkkresae]

do you know what road this is? I live nearby as well and would love to visit it!

[@chigasaki06]

Seen this in person. Smaller than I thought, but it's really nice. This along with the Volvo XC90, and Mazda CX-9, are the best looking crossovers in the market.

[@venom5809]

Test drove it last month and I really liked it, one of my favorite vehicles out there, almost Porsche-like. It is definitely a contender for my next vehicle. I probably wouldn't go over $65,000 either for one though.

[@nrvous309]

Hands down the most handsome SUV..... in my opinion

[@hildenbrandt21]

With all these rolling shots, I thought I was watching a Chris Harris on CARS video, not a One Take. Great production quality gains Matt!

[@kevinbias664]

I saw a dark blue F-Pace driving around northern Colorado just a couple of weeks ago. Didn't even know they were selling them yet. Maybe it was part of the Jaguar event?

[@madaraproductions]

Such a beautiful car. Best looking Suv on the market for sure.

[@gracilism]

Great review. This car is on my list as a future vehicle and your review greatly helped. I love the real world point of view instead of the flowery expose' of some reviewers.

[@deztroyer76]

I had to watch this twice. Once for the amazing views and once for the review. I really need to get out of Chicago.

[@justintuite913]

love the early morning uploads

[@Jonathan42792]

Great cinematography used, Matt!

[@albertcharron5995]

like where your going with the quality of your reviews they keep getting better props man

[@rogerxcohn]

S similarly equipped is only about $1,000 more than the base. I configured both ways. You get a lot more included with S. So mine cost $64,000 and has everything except heads up display and cold weather package (AZ). I now have 5K miles and no issues except the connectivity. Problem with Sim card from AT&T. Never has worked.

[@bunkaaa8726]

Are you having fun out there Matt ?

[@wsmiteh]

Loving the upped quality on some of these intro shots Matt, keep it up brother!

[@2jzandys444]

Saw an f pace in Vancouver several months ago, sounds pretty good for an suv.

[@fishtankfreak]

Thanks for the heads up on the Tshirts! Love the simple logo design, can't wait for mine to arrive!

[@justinbeamon6624]

Red brake calipers reduce your 60-0 ft down to 70ft easily.

[@Apollo_s2k]

The photography is amazing well done!

[@established_1803]

ur one hell of a personality, matt. it would be nice to see you do vlogs or longer videos, i know we'd watch the shit outta those...maybe a separate channel?

[@rogerj412]

Thanks for having the t-shirts in a size that fits me Matt. It's hard finding cool clothes when a larger fella like me.

[@TheSmokingTire]

Very important!

[@jeremyburleson8466]

How much are they?

[@lexusstefan927]

Can this thing actually go off road, or its just for show

[@DJJS7]

Please shoot video in 4K , we will appreciate the quality of the video and sound : )

[@renaldonelson970]

I am likin the Jaguar one takes. I have an XF and will consider an F Pace as my next vehicle. I would like you to do a One Take for a Ghibli though :)

[@jamesball8966]

Looks great and I was gonna get one but bad reviews along with reliability issues with electronics as put me right off

[@Tailpipetalesnow]

I would feel so honoured if any car brand flew me out to a location and provided everything for me to make my content. One day I'll get there. For now though, I'll just watch these videos to get my blood rushing ^^ Great stuff as always Matt, although a little extra enthusiasm wouldn't hurt anyone. Opinions, opinions..

[@stefan-stocksmadesimple5241]

What's up with all those Jaguar windshields ?

[@eeterp32]

I'll tell you what's up. My dingus is up after looking at your profile pic.

[@SonnyVisual]

you could buy a Macan or a Cayene. At all the same price, which one would you buy?

[@Nippledozer]

they aren't the same price. maybe the macan but it doesn't really compete

[@TheSmokingTire]

They aren't the same price at all. A comparably equipped Macan is $15k more and cayennes are like $40k more

[@SonnyVisual]

+TheSmokingTire i mean if you were to buy each one at 76k. which one would you buy?

[@SonnyVisual]

here in Canada a fully loaded F-Pace S Costs $83k before tax. you can buy a base Cayenne S, Loaded Base Cayenne or a Platinum Edition with some options. A Highly optioned Macan S, Optioned Macan GTS, or a base Macan Turbo.

[@TheSmokingTire]

+Sonny Visual I'd rather have the Jag with every single option than a rather basic Cayenne or Macan. But if cost was no object id take the Porsche

[@lovelyfloorcoverings]

Are any going to be made spelt 'tyre' lol ?

[@letterpool]

I checked one out while on my new car day. I thought the lines on this thing were pretty nice. The interior wasn't too bad but way too small. In the end after checking out this, an X5 and a few other non competes I ended up getting the 2016 Jeep SRT. More room, Nice interior and 6.4L V8.

[@HassanEido1]

Everytime he says F-pace I think he's gonna say fuck-face hahahaha. Love the T shirts Matt, I'm gonna buy one just because I'm a big fan

[@EdwardAlcala]

Congrats on 600k Matt keep it up man!

[@bigblockrc]

Hey Matt, I'd like to purchase some of the merch stuff but it looks like shipping to Germany isn't available. Is that right?

[@Thelaunster]

Bought a LE TST Vintage Shirt... That's like +5 whp right?

[@maestroadam]

Those rims look like something from a bad rap video. They are disproportionately large! Good call on recommending people skip them, Matt!

[@Rielestkid]

I saw one of these on the street in Miami like a month ago. Very cool looking car, I'd still get a Porsche instead.

[@edkwon]

How does this drive compare to competing Macan S?

[@gootywooty]

I don't get why people are comparing an F-Pace to a Bentayga, it is because they're both British or?

[@shawnprickett4099]

So when is the R coming I mean if that V6 fits the V8 fits cause they are the same width. That's what I would get that glorious Supercharged V8

[@shawnprickett4099]

I saw the F-Pace S Sunday it was blue and was very nice.

[@shawnclyne1904]

great review Matt!

[@brendangeiger6225]

are the shirts a blend of polyester?

[@MicheleFerrariAX]

the sky really shows colorado legalizing

[@sergeyakinin997]

Picked up a tshirt :) thanks for all your awesome videos Matt!

[@mattclose1439]

That screen looks very touch-sensitive! I have never liked touch screen systems in cars because they have never been up to standard with say, smart phones (save Tesla). Do you think this one is getting close to touch screen phones and tablets?

[@isitfast2067]

Wow the interior and the rear would have me sold.. By the way Matt I like the clothes very pizan

[@harpreetbrar6305]

Are you going to review the Porsche Macan anytime soon?

[@hesco0528]

This or the macan turbo?

[@akjdhfkqwrhetkjanfvkkkresae]

hey Matt could you tell me what road this is? I live in the area and would love to know!

[@JayBird93]

I watch most of your videos although I will not be able to afford many of these cars for several years. Thnx?

[@ToxicHorsePucky]

This may sound dumb, but how did this compare to the XF you drove a while back?

[@TheSmokingTire]

Better. I prefer this

[@jayzpadilla09]

You should notify us of when you're in a certain area, like Colorado! Fans I'm sure would love to come on by and meet you. In addition, if time permits, perhaps test out a few cars from the locals in the areas you visit! I see that almost all of your One Takes are in California..

[@TheSmokingTire]

I always post on my Instagram where I am in the world!

[@jayzpadilla09]

Well shoot.. looks like I have to follow you a bit better! Thanks for the info!

[@Persiacan]

Matt how would you compare this to the Macan GTS?

[@spyonthesoftparade]

How are those lovely panning shots done, Matt?

[@KennethArntsen]

Jaguar provides them by having their own film crew doing exterior shots for the journalists. I suppose that makes it easier and cheaper to fly in fewer journalists.

[@spyonthesoftparade]

That makes sense, thanks.

[@GfCast39]

What got cut off at the bottom in the intro?

[@isaaccarrillo6229]

red brakes= stop fast

[@AndrewDeCenzo]

Gonna show my support and get a shirt

[@aymansgarage]

Most beautiful SUV!

[@lukalukic1]

Cant wait for M5 E60 video :D My dream car :)

[@infinitycl]

Matt if you had to choose would you take a fpace or XF?

[@TheSmokingTire]

F pace unless I needed lots of rear seat room for tall people

[@katanamast279]

Matt if it was your money would you pick the BMW 335i or the Jaguar XES? Thanks

[@TheSmokingTire]

+katanamast279 neither?

[@infinitycl]

TheSmokingTire lol

[@katanamast279]

Lol ok what would be our perfect sports sedan daily car? Debating on upgrading to something like those. Would love your opinion

[@lejink]

I haven't had the chance to look at this car in person, but from what I've seen on camera there seems to be a lot of plastic inside.. Definitely wouldn't say this car is worth more than 60k I wonder how much of an issue depreciation will be

[@robissuperiorfazerobbie4080]

Failed to mention the real cons like the fact that its a jaguar with a range rover evoque body kid.... Or that it cant keep up with any bmw you could get in that similar price range. 

[@cobra454tim]

Damn engine sounds like my 13 Subaru Legacy 3.6 Limited. H6 Matt !

[@constructivecritique4049]

Wow. That interior looks the shit. I love the red accents.

[@oliveview2915]

Has Tata fully cleansed all these Jags & Rovers of the Ford bits and pieces? Or does Ford still supply various components? During those dark days under the blue oval, that switch gear alone made the cars feel so down-market.

[@TheSmokingTire]

I can't find anything recognizably ford in F Type, XE or F pace at all.

[@oliveview2915]

That's good. It's been enough years, so I would have expected so. But one never knows. Tesla still uses MBZ interior switches and such.

[@BeesonsCars]

I've only seen two things. Same Steering wheel telescoping controls as an older ford. Same memory seat controls too. That's about it.

[@Iucien]

Skip the $4k 22" 's and throw some Vossens on there

[@thebeastguy15]

You should do The macan gts

[@stereolababy]

i hope matt picked up the groceries while out in this jag

[@klasseact6663]

I saw no link on how to buy the limited edition t-shirt.

[@TheSmokingTire]

It's the first line in the description of the video

[@Theman26642]

720p is the new 144p

[@TheSmokingTire]

Video is in 1080P on my end

[@amplemind9739]

I got 720, quality is messed up as well. maybe something went wrong with encoding

[@spdcrzy]

STILL have 720P on my end.

[@haydenjcollins]

Sold!

[@dawgmanfat]

I'd rather take this over that new masserati suv, the levante or something? That brand for some reason seems to have gone downhill recently, could just be FCA in general

[@jeffk464]

I'd rather have a 718 cayman S than either one.

[@xPUR3xSHOTZx]

Well all these brands are selling SUVs to keep the brand alive, especially Maserati who have struggled financially in the past

[@SenszR]

+Jeff K ???????

[@jeremyburleson8466]

They are shit boxes. My best friend owns a quattro, It's literally always in the shop. The maserati mechanic shop cost more than the payments

[@adswilburn]

F-Pace = Fast Pace E-Pace = Economic Pace I-Pace = I don’t need gas Pace...😂

[@aymansgarage]

A fully loaded one is 104k might as well get an SVR, comes with everything and craftsmanship is far superior!

[@theworldisnotenough]

Whew. I got a t shirt before they ran out!

[@nickamarit]

I think the Cinturato's are holding this car's potential back a bit...

[@komanellithegod2775]

Looks very nice

[@44AdamH]

matt, this or xc90? also, time for a new hat, this isn't the 1980's PGA tour...

[@TheSmokingTire]

I like my hat. And the XC90 is a lot bigger than the Jag.

[@44AdamH]

I actually don't mind the hat, just felt the need to give you a hard time as does every other commenter, keep up the good work!

[@tmthysmth82]

easy the best car in the class and I am not into SUV 's

I see the alien vortex is back.

[@peteogrande]

Yesterday's reaction and today's reaction seem like two complete opposites haha

[@nycmaverick]

How about the Jaguar "Grapple"

[@insxmnia_exe]

Matt Farah alone would be perfect for Top Gear BBC or USA

[@BChan1991]

+TheSmokingTire whats with the cuts?? were you breaking the law?

[@TheSmokingTire]

No, it's called B Roll.

[@BChan1991]

+TheSmokingTire AH....."B" for BreakingTheLaw......slick

[@GT-gt4bf]

You don't look so convinced, Matt.

[@JMartinni]

Jet lag maybe?

[@robertsestito6821]

+J. Martinni. jet lag it's a one hour time difference.

[@awethesound]

jag lag

[@JMartinni]

Robert Sestito Okay, didn't know. Maybe he's just tired. Don't think it's the cars.

[@TheSmokingTire]

Lol, we'll see.

[@baddriversofcolga]

KZbin's compression is so bad, especially in the trees.

[@Anthonyanthony924]

F-Pace S or GLC 43 AMG?

[@therealcyrus]

S

[@richardwilson3936]

do you have shirts in 6 speed? ;)

[@skiiiiby]

what an awesome place

[@chase8957]

so the question is this or the macan s?

[@eeterp32]

Macan turbo

[@chase8957]

the turbo would be a little more if you mean the base turbo no options vs fully loaded f-pace s then i mean i would take a fully loaded s or some options with a gts then the turbo

[@GrmanPowrHouse12]

That's not a very realistic question. Macan Turbo costs nearly twice as much as this does.

[@eeterp32]

+Supreme1337 this car is$74k as tested. Macan turbo starts at $76k.

[@iluvmyeski]

Matt isn't the same anymore. Hasn't been uploading as frequently and he seems drained out

[@TheSmokingTire]

I've had the same upload schedule for over a year. Every Monday through Thursday at 7 am EST. like clockwork.

[@frankiewelfare8087]

@kel like orange soda pourin' the videos be flowin'!!!

[@AndrewDeCenzo]

drained out? did you see his last video? he was shitting himself the whole video

[@octagonapuus]

Where do people come up with this stuff?

[@mariuszanfir2298]

@Kel Loves orange skoda How did you get a thumbs up with that conclusion? Who the hell agreed with you?

Ordered! PS: Shipping is just brutal to EU.

[@isaaccarrillo6229]

been seeing alot of these

[@The_Osprey]

Not bad. You can spend more than that on a Chevrolet Suburban.

[@bottomlayer]

The red brake calipers add 7 hp :p Nice scenery

[@gracilism]

F Pace starts at 41K per Jaguar's website.

[@TheSmokingTire]

41k is a base diesel. Base gas is $47k I believe
