The Frankfurt news continues as the Jaguar I-Pace
eTrophy has made an early appearance.
Based on the I-Pace concept, the I-Pace
eTrophy is a high-performance electric vehicle which features an aggressive
front fascia with large air intakes and a prominent splitter. The car has also
been equipped with front fender vents, aerodynamic side skirts, and
flush-mounted door handles.
The hardcore treatment continues at the rear as
designers installed a massive rear wing, a trunk-mounted spoiler, and a large
diffuser. Other notable features include a ventilated hood and lightweight
alloy wheels which are backed up by a high-performance braking system.
Inside, we will see the I-Pace eTrophy will come with a roll cage and a mesh window net.
There only appears to be one seat but we'll likely find out for sure tomorrow.
Performance specifications remain unknown but the
original I-Pace concept had a 90 kWh battery and an electric motor that powered
each axle. The motors produced a combined output of 400 hp and 700 Nm of torque and allowed the concept to travel up to 500 km on a single charge.
