Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2020 Jaguar E-Pace is unranked in Luxury Subcompact SUVs due to missing safety data. Currently, the Jaguar E-Pace's overall score is not available, though its Critics' Rating, Performance score, and Interior score are based on our evaluation of 18 pieces of research and data.

Pros
Lots of cargo room
Comfortable ride

Cons
Cramped rear seats
Poor fuel economy

For 2020, Jaguar updates the E-Pace lineup by adding newly standard features and a limited-edition model. Every E-Pace now has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability, which were previously optional with the Smartphone Pack. The new Checkered Flag Limited Edition is only available with the less powerful four-cylinder engine, but it brings unique exterior addenda as well as distinct cabin appointments. This setup also includes better standard equipment and all-wheel drive.

Pros
Unmistakable styling, surprisingly fun to drive, mostly tranquil ride.

Cons
Inconsistent interior quality, cramped back seat, costs more than it should.
