Jaguar F-Pace to start at ₹68.40 lac

British-Indian manufacturer’s first SUV to be launched on Oct 20

Jaguar Land Rover, the Tata-owned storied British auto manufacturer has announced an India price for their F-Pace SUV. The vehicle will be available in four variants in all, with a choice of the new 2.0 litre inline four-cylinder Ingenium motor or a 3.0-litre V6 motor. The smaller motor generates 177hp, while the V6 outputs 296hp. The 3.0-litre in particular produces a rorty 700Nm of torque via “twin parallel sequential turbocharging” that sends the SUV from 0–100 in a claimed 6.2 seconds. Only diesel motors will be available at launch, and the vehicles can be booked across India today.

Like the XE and recently-updated XF, the F-Pace also makes extensive use of aluminium wherever possible to keep weight down and efficiency up. The result is a near-perfect 50–50 weight distribution. Of course, exterior styling follows the evolving Jaguar design language, using the adaptive LED headlights we’ve seen on other models as well as their J-shaped strip of DRLs.

There will also be a more exclusive “First Edition” F-Pace available with the 3.0-litre motor. Changes include exclusive 20" alloys, more luxurious interior appointments and an “Adaptive Dynamics” system to control suspension damping.
