There are two types of people who buy luxury vehicles in this world. Some do it for the prestige it brings. Others do it more out of passion or emotion. It's generally this second category of buyers who opt for a model like the 2025 Jaguar F-Pace.
There aren't any major updates for the British manufacturer's SUV in 2025. However, the Jaguar F-Pace remains a very current model.
Range and Price
The 2025 Jaguar F-Pace range is divided into three main categories. First, there's the P250 model, which offers a 4-cylinder engine. It starts at $71,750. This is slightly higher than what is found elsewhere in the category. However, I believe the British SUV offers more as standard than the competition. Next is the P400 with a starting price of $81,150. Finally, there's the P575 version with a starting price of $110,740. I know it sounds expensive at first glance, but unlike most of its competitors, Jaguar doesn't offer overly costly options, which makes the experience more appealing since you don't end up with a shockingly high bill at the end of the process.
Category and Competition
The Jaguar F-Pace competes in the most competitive category in the luxury vehicle market. Compact SUVs are particularly in demand in this segment, and the competition is fierce. Fortunately, the British manufacturer's SUV has strong arguments in its favor, particularly in terms of style, but especially in terms of performance. It's one of the few vehicles in its category that still offers a V8 engine.
Rivals: Acura RDX, Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Audi Q5, BMW X4, Buick Envision, Cadillac XT5, Genesis GV70, Infiniti QX50, Infiniti QX55, JLR Discovery Sport, JLR Evoque, JLR Velar, Lexus NX, Lincoln Corsair, Maserati Grecale, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Porsche Macan, Volvo XC60.
Design and Technology
The Jaguar F-Pace hasn't changed much since it first hit the market, which isn't a bad thing since the model is still modern. In fact, the British manufacturer's SUV stands out from the competition with its more muscular appearance and very pronounced shapes. Since it doesn't follow the norm, it tends to age better in terms of design than the competition.
I know it seems ironic given the model's exterior attitude, but I believe the most interesting part of the Jaguar F-Pace is still its interior. The comfort level is breathtaking. The driving position is very pleasant, and the technologies offered by the British manufacturer's SUV are impressively high-quality.
Performance
The British manufacturer's SUV offers three mechanical options for 2025, starting with a classic 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. It delivers 247 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. Additionally, it's paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive is standard. This is the same combination found with the model's other powertrains.
If you want a bit more power while remaining reasonable, the second option is very interesting as it's a combination of a 3.0-liter 6-cylinder engine and a mild hybrid system. This delivers a total of 395 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. Despite this, the British manufacturer's SUV manages to maintain an average consumption of 12.1 L/100 km in the city and 9.1 L/100 km on the highway. For comparison, the 4-cylinder engine's average consumption is 10.8 L/100 km in the city and 8.8 L/100 km on the highway.
Finally, if fuel consumption isn't a major concern for you but power is, the third option is certainly the one you should go for. This involves a 5.0-liter V8 engine combined with a supercharger, delivering a total of 575 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. This allows the manufacturer's SUV to go from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.0 seconds and reach a top speed of 286 km/h.
Weak Points
Reliability isn't always on point. The 4-cylinder engine lacks a bit of power.
Strengths
You'll have fun behind the wheel, guaranteed. It's also one of the most comfortable vehicles in its segment. The V8's performance is breathtaking, and I haven't even mentioned its sound. The build quality is impeccable.
Signature Element
The 2025 Jaguar F-Pace offers a combination of luxury, performance, and prestige that you simply don't find in any other vehicle in this category and price range.
Final Word
The Jaguar F-Pace is a fully legitimate luxury vehicle. It's muscular, extravagant, and extreme. It's a model that doesn't fail to turn heads as it passes by, and its level of equipment is astonishing. All this to say that emotion is at the heart of its concept, making it such an interesting vehicle. You don't choose it because its stats on paper are excellent. You choose it because you simply want to drive it.
