Jaguar I-PACE vs Tesla: Which Fully Electric Luxury SUV Offers You More?

Jaguar makes vehicles that are thrilling to drive and relaxing to ride in, and fully electric models are no exception. The new Jaguar I-PACE has athletic handling and a feature-rich interior that makes every drive in Midlothian enjoyable. Tesla's closest match to the I-PACE is the new Model Y. It's about three inches longer than the I-PACE, but it has a firmer ride and a less refined cabin. Jaguar Richmond created the following comparison to help you make a more informed buying decision.

Benefits of Driving a Jaguar I-PACE

Fully electric vehicles are best if you want to help slow the effects of climate change because they release zero emissions. EVs also need less maintenance than gas-powered vehicles because they have fewer moving parts and don't require oil changes or radiator coolant. People in Midlothian may even receive tax credits when they purchase an electric vehicle.

The new Jaguar I-PACE has a stunning exterior that will turn heads wherever you go in Richmond. It also has a well-balanced ride and handling. The I-PACE's posh interior is loaded with user-friendly tech features for a safer, more pleasant commute.

The new Tesla Model Y has a double-wishbone front and multilink rear suspension. Stiff suspension tuning can make its ride feel jarring around town.

Its clear graphics, quick responses, and standard wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto make it a cinch to run while you're out and about. The Tesla Model Y has a standard 15-inch infotainment display. However, it can be distracting and frustrating since it houses all the vehicle's primary controls. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are not available in the Model Y.

Interior Quality

The new Jaguar I-PACE has all the posh refinements you expect from an electric luxury SUV. Authentic leather upholstery with contrast stitching and aluminum interior accents are standard. Heated and cooled front seats, dual-zone climate control, and a heated steering wheel keep you cozy regardless of the weather in Midlothian. The new Tesla Model Y comes with simulated leather upholstery. Some of its materials don't fit together particularly well, so it has a less luxurious look and feel than the I-PACE.

Our Richmond customers will like its driver attention warning feature, which issues an alert if sensors determine they are becoming fatigued. The new Tesla Model Y only has five standard driver aids.
