Jaguar has extended the Chequered Flag lineup with a
new special edition of the E-Pace. Launched in the UK from £ 40,050, £ 11,105 more than the base model, it has a
number of visual updates and a comprehensive list of standard gear.
Available in three colors called the Corris Grey,
Yulong White and Photon Red, it features ‘Chequered Flag’ exterior side
badging, R-Dynamic body-colored bumpers, LED headlights, twin tailpipes,
19-inch wheels with a Satin Dark Gray look and the Black Exterior Pack.
The ‘Chequered Flag’ treadplates greet users upon
opening the doors, while the cabin has Ebony Grained leather upholstery with
red stitching. Electrically adjustable heated front seats, R-Dynamic branded
steering wheel, black gearshift paddles and Ebony Morzine headliner are all
part of the package. The special edition E-Pace also comes with a 12.3-inch TFT
display, 10-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto,
keyless entry and electric tailgate.
Jaguar’s Smart Settings, a system that uses
Artificial Intelligence (AI) to learn the habits of drivers, anticipating their
needs and capable of adjusting the seats, climate control and infotainment
system by recognizing their smartphone Bluetooth signal or key fob as they
approach the car, is optional. The Adaptive Dynamics, Pet Packs and other
accessories are also available for this model.
The E-Pace Chequered Flag is offered with a choice
of four engines, two diesels, with 150 PS and 180 PS, and two petrol units that deliver 200 PS and 249
