Don't be fooled by the Jaguar's luxury exterior. While it is an excellent and elegant SUV, it's just as capable when the going gets a little rougher.

The superb four-wheel drive system and off-road driving modes make the E-Pace a genuine option for a luxurious off-roader. If you choose to go off-road in the Jaguar, the driving modes you'll be looking to use are the Ice, Snow and Rain. The sophisticated four-wheel drive system also has functionality for directing up to 100% of the power to either of the rear wheels to help in those tricky situations too.

3 Sporty Handling

It's not just off-road where the Jag performs admirably, as the sporty nature of the E-Pace makes it feel much lighter and agile than it appears at first glance.

Due to its stocky shape, the E-Pace has minimal body roll for a typical SUV and this in tandem with the responsive steering and great four-wheel drive system makes the Jaguar a joy to drive. The sophisticated and advanced electronic assists too make it grip extraordinarily well around bends for a vehicle of its size.

2 Fuel Efficiency

The E-Pace is a top performer too when it comes to saving on fuel, as the option of the hybrid engine in particular makes for great reading for those slightly more economy conscious.
