2021 Jaguar F Pace - Smooth, Fast and Practical BUT DOOMED !

[@beaublue1625]

Absolutely fabulous Car... I part exchanged my superb 2016 F Pace Dynamic 3.0D for an I Pace before the 2021 model came out. If I hadn’t, I’d be signing up for the P400 now! It was hard enough watching Peds brilliantly positive report on the 300D, if he’d been in the P400... with a review like this one... I’d probably be in tears 😭 .. The F Pace has been a brilliant success for Jaguar & it can’t fail with this superb 2021 upgrade. Well done JLR 👍

Getting my new F Pace tomorrow. So excited. Trading in my 2020 F Pace for the updated variant.

[@PixelVibe42]

Excellent video and review. I've had an F-Pace for 2.5 years from new, wasn't sure about it at first but it's been a great car. I bought it mainly to get my bike and gear in it for races - it's a good size with the seats down. Economical, looks great (Carpathian Grey with Black Pack), and yes it does 'waft' ... No plans to change it yet.

[@colinirvine1869]

Really awesome video. Love the lines on that Jag! Glad the pup is back to good health!

[@mrek2068]

Great video as always. I am a huge Jaguar fan, and like the new interior of the latest F-Pace, although not a lover of non-integrated infotainment screens, despite the beautiful curve of this screen. Jaguar absolutely nailed the shape with the original design, so no real changes required there. Glad to hear your furry friend is much better. Take care. Errol

[@chrisva505]

Caveat Emptor. I bought a new F Pace SVR about 10 months ago. Drove and handled beautifully despite its obvious weight/ centre of gravity issues. Beautiful 5 ltr supercharged V8...but I had more quality issues in 5 months than I had over the previous 35 years of all my previous German cars...combined! Luckily, a supportive dealer swapped me into the new RS4....no regrets, and no comparison from a quality perspective. You won't pick these things up on a test drive, but it will sadly be the last Jag to take my cash.

[@PetrolPed]

Wow 😳

[@trevorredman7182]

I have a Petrol supercharged F-Pace which was my first non Land Rover product for over twenty years; it still makes me smile every time I drive it. Quality wise it has been brilliant but I did get an extended 5 year warranty with it. Driving wise it is in a different class to my RRS that I have had before. Strangely it is a really relaxing car to drive over long distances. The secret with driving any ‘Stop Start’ vehicles is keeping an eye on the rev counter, easy to see engine status. Still love my Clubman for town and fuel saving trips. I have managed to keep up my anxiety levels by also running a RR, dear to run and requires constant tlc. Good review and pleased both dogs are well . Would be good if you could test the latest Jag SVR.

I have had a new 3.0d se f pace for nearly one year. Faultless, fast when needed and averaging nearly 40mpg. Its an effortless, very comfortable cruiser on my numerous long trip and really practical. Thanks for your video, it seems a shame this won't be made after 2025 as the engine, gearbox and habling are so good.

[@steveprice5636]

I have a 2017 F-Pace 3.0d S and love it, I normally keep my cars 2 years but love this one so much I'm keeping it a bit longer, just did 2 journeys of 240 miles each and car returned 36+ mpg Not sure I like the screen on the new one but the rest looks great.

[@austinedwards1918]

if i was designing this car one thing i would do is incorporate the drive selector in with the gear change, 1 to free up space and 2 to unclutter the space. It can be done.

I've got a 2010 XKR and have been eyeing these F-Pace for a couple years. Wanting to add one to my personal fleet. They definitely look good.

[@georgedaville4662]

Great review Ped. I have had an E-Pace since 2018, and love the way the car drives, the interior, the 2.0d powertrain and ZF 9 speed box work brilliantly, 40 mpg average and 50+ on long journeys. The one thing I do not like now in any car is a black interior, no matter what the external colour. I have had light interiors since 2010. On my company steeds, I had to put a bit of effort in cleaning the driver's seat, due to my 40k miles per year average. To see all this fantastic cutting edge Ingenium engine technology being confirmed to scrap heap is for me unbelievable. It is a pity the Government has such disjointed, knee jerk policies when it comes to transport and the future. It will be interesting to see what comes out of the big climate gig later this tear???

[@darrencottrell5541]

Great review as is the norm. Great to see other marques wanting a regular piece of the Petrol Ped channel. All the best.

A great and honest review, no trying to be a comedian which annoys me, he tells you as it is, keep up the good work.

[@PetrolPed]

[@laurence9618]

i will add this - driving in town in dynamic mode makes driving over bumps better somewhat, and if you are driving uphill, then in dynamic mode can be more economical than eco or comfort mode as it easily picks up speed to 20 or 30 without any fuss (faster) at which point you take your foot off accelerator and cruise a bit giving it a slight nudge when required to keep momentum up.

[@petermclaughlin560]

Great review not many around in the UK on the updated model ordered mine last week just got to wait until July to get it it was the interior upgrade that made be choose it from the Velar and BMW and always think that when a model has a refresh it puts thing right after 5 years of production

[@philipparkes5079]

Hi Ped Just returned from a very pleasant run in SUV, sun shinning above the pan roof, 3litre oil burner (340ps) wafting us along coupled to excellent 8 speed auto. No it was not a Jaguar but an Audi SQ5 two cars very equally matched in some eyes, and yes Audi to stop production of these engines. I agree with your comments whole hearted, let’s enjoy them whilst we can. Good to see the Pups in their supporting roles🥰

Massive fan. Was the “the first person in U.K. to put down deposit” in Jan 2015 ( accordingly Hunters Guildford). Got R Sport in 2016 with black pack, pano roof and 22” black wheels. Ingenium 2 ltr a little harsh but quick enough. My biz partner got same but smaller wheels and it rode better but didn’t look as good. Very good looking car. Got a Disco 5 now and these still catch my envious looks as they are very attractive.... 👍🏻

[@rmorgan2042]

Had 2 new F paces in 2016/17 and had to reject them both with drive line vibrations which were severe. Jaguar stated that it was a characteristic of the vehicle so I contacted Auto Express who fought my corner but got the same answer from JLR press office that the drive line vibration was a characteristic of the F pace. Unbelievable!! Now bought a Range Rover Velar which is a far superior SUV from the same stable and no vibration.

[@PetrolPed]

Wow…not good 😢

[@scottgreen6523]

Brilliant video as always very well edited, would love to see a side by side with the Discovery with the same engine?

[@PetrolPed]

That would be interesting 👍

[@numbereightyseven]

Yeah, stop-start is dangerous at intersections; either through lack of response, or that unpredictability you mentioned.

[@Colin623]

I hate Start-Stop, but not only the delay in response but even more concerning is the wear & tear on the starter motor and battery, yes I know they say the batteries are designed to do this hard work, but I'd rather stick to leaving the engine running but also to reduce the wear on the engine in cold weather as the oil needs to be warm to give full protection ! which is a concern if you live in the heart of a city where you are constantly stopping at lights before the engine has had time to warm up the oil !

[@davidwan247]

I have always liked the sporty looks of the F Pace, but I would still prefer the Velar, especially the new P400. Nice to see they finally improved the infotainment system across the JLR lineup.

[@jeffabbott463]

Very fair review Peter. For me it drives similar to a RR Sport now . The new transverse architecture has improved it and the E Pace . Ready for full EV !!

[@jeepviking]

Nothing transverse about the new F-pace. Still North-South with RWD bias. I currently have a P300 Xe but could be tempted with one of these in P400e flavour.

[@davidhowarth8131]

Great review, I hope you get to review the PHEV when its out, as I pull a caravan? Currently drive Volvo XC60 PHEV Polestar.

[@markburton5170]

I had a test drive in the PHEV. It drove really well, but loses a lot of boot space with a raised floor. I have ordered a 3.0 D HSE, so loved hearing how good it is in this review.

[@markburton5170]

I've got my 3.0 D HSE on 20 inch wheeels now and I'm thrilled with it - luxurious, refined, MMI now top of the class as he says, and swift enough. I think the stop/start and auto hold work really well together - better than most, I don't agree with Ped finding that a negative. If I have a negative it's that it's a wide car, with thick doors, so it is not easy to see where the sides are.

Loving the much-improved style of the 2021 F-Pace, but I really wish we could get that 3.0 liter diesel engine over here in the US. Driving across The Rockies, from Denver to Grand Junction, via the 11,000ft summit of I-70, would be an absolute blast. Interior-wise, the piano black plastic surfaces are an eyesore that shouldn't appear in any Jaguar, but otherwise - good job!

[@DM-MayBee]

Excellent review, very concise and polished Ped. The F Pace looks great, a definite class leader. Its such a crying shame that Jaguar have decided to drop the petrol and diesel engines from 2025.

[@austinedwards1918]

Also the info screen could be incorporated into the dash where it could be adjusted to face the driver at an angle comfortable to them. by having it swivel slightly towards the drivers preference than having something that stands out to gather dust behind it which would be a pain to clean. picky i m but this is something which should be taken into account when looking at erogonomic design

Lovely car, quite similar to our new Discovery Sport.

[@daviddenley3512]

To be honest I feel Jaguar weren't quiet being truthful saying that Jaguar was established in 1935, that year the model came into being but the Cars were still known as the SS Jaguars. The SS branding was only changed after WW2 for what was at the time fairly obvious reasons! I myself owned the slowest SS Jaguar ever built, it was the 1937 SS Jaguar 1.5 litre Saloon powered by a Standard 12 horse side valve unit able to propel my SS to an astonishing 68 mph! I never tried it personally as keeping in on the road was a little difficult!

[@OlegTPCH]

I watched quite a lot of reviews of F-Pace and must say that Pete’s review is second to none: very well structured delivery, clear and eloquent speech. And yes, F-Pace 2021 looks gorgeous! Would be happy to hear your thoughts on F-Pace vs E-Pace comparison. Though I adore pretty much everything about F-Pace, it does seem too “bulky” to me…

Great video Pete! I've always liked the F-pace, if you have to have an SUV then this is the nicest to look at (imo). Glad to see they've fixed the not very premium interior of the original car. Cheers, Chris

[@garethedwards2883]

I think it looks great especially in black and de-chromed. A few thoughts though is that because it is a diesel will the value plummet and should you even have stop/start on a turbo charged vehicle which could possibly starve the turbo of oil flow !!

[@alveronng9191]

Good review, if it was Matt Watson he'd have thrown the parcel shelve into the bushes lol I totally agree re Diesels, they are wrongly demonised.

[@ingopaul67]

Jaguar are making a huge mistake in ditching petrol/diesel years before they need to. My only conclusion is that JLR are using Jaguar to roll out electric cars as a test bed, leaving the far more important Land Rover brand making petrol/diesel/hybrid into the future.

[@fragglerock689]

[@system11yt]

The new interior is nice except for the "ipad stuck to the dash" pain in the backside system. I really hate touch controls, and I hate giant screens stuck to the dash instead of properly integrated, it's why I'm looking at pre-facelift V6 SC ones. Trouble is it seems like most people specced the base model sound system which isn't great.

Can you do a 2021 Land Rover Discovery non R Dynamic version please if possible

[@andrewcubbage1007]

My opinion is that Jaguar going all electric by 2025 is a "courageous" decision (as in Yes Minister!) Certainly the overwhelming majority of buyers of new Jaguars will have a private driveway and/or garage so charging will not be a problem. But I struggle to believe that 3 years later the charging infrastructure will be there for many of the people thinking about buying the cars second hand. Where is all the extra electricity coming from, and where is the plan to upgrade the grid network, when and where will the "charging stations" (as opposed to petrol stations) be built? - The latter need to accommodate vehicles for a lot longer than the 5 minutes it takes to fill up an IC vehicle. Or will every residential street be covered in charging cables? The desire to move away from polluting vehicles is completely understandable. But I fear that without a well thought out and communicated programme for the construction of the electricity charging network, many people will still be taking delivery of IC vehicles in December 2030. I say all this as someone who really wants the world to move away from our dependence on carbon based fuels, but I do not presently see the pace of progress I feel is necessary to achieve the UK's 2030 target.
