The facelifted 2021 Jaguar E-Pace has been spied testing at the Nurburgring for the very first time. We’re big fans of the way the current E-Pace looks but the British car manufacturer is clearly eager to freshen it up with some minor visual tweaks. It is expected to hit the market next year but could be unveiled before the end of 2020.
As with previous E-Pace prototypes spied
testing this year, Jaguar looks to have tweaked the headlights and made them
slightly smaller. Unfortunately, camouflage covers the entire front fascia of
this prototype so it’s difficult to comment on what changes are going on there,
although a new bumper can be expected.
Spin around to the rear and, well, we
can’t spot any changes. The taillights, including the LED graphics, appear
identical to those of the outgoing model. Even the bumper looks unchanged.
While it’s certainly possible that no changes have been made to the rear, we
expect to see some minor tweaks when the facelifted SUV is actually unveiled.
Alterations will inevitably be made to the
cabin, despite how similar the exterior may look to the current model. Most
notably, we expect to see the updated E-Pace feature Jaguar’s new Pivi Pro
infotainment system that includes over-the-air update capabilities. This new
system also includes a dedicated power source that means it can boot up almost
immediately. It’s possible the E-Pace will also adopt the secondary 5.5-inch
display of other Jaguar models that’s used for the HVAC controls.
