The All New Jaguar F-Pace Launches in Singapore
Jaguar launches it’s first-ever luxury performance SUV in Singapore. Inspired by the acclaimed C-X17 concept vehicle, the All-new Jaguar F-PACE bears all the trademarks of a Jaguar – pure form, beautiful lines and a sporting silhouette. Embodying the pure Jaguar DNA of legendary performance, exceptional handling and luxury, the F-PACE combines maximum driving exhilaration with space and everyday versatility and is the ultimate practical sports car.
A performance crossover with the DNA of a sports car, the F-PACE’s progressive and purposeful appearance is greatly influenced by the F-TYPE. From the bonnet bulge to the pronounced rear haunches, its powerful, agile looks give it that distinctive, head-turning Jaguar presence.
Developed using Jaguar’s Lightweight Aluminium Architecture, the F-PACE’s aluminium-intensive monocoque gives it a high torsional stiffness with unrivalled weight. This extremely robust structure, together with the F-TYPE-derived double wishbone front suspension and sophisticated Integral Link rear suspension, sets the benchmark for driving dynamics in its class. With Torque Vectoring as standard and an Electric Power Assisted Steering system tuned to give the best possible feel and response, the F-PACE offers the ideal balance of precise handling and body control, making the F-PACE as rewarding to drive as it is comfortable to be driven in.
The F-PACE is brought to life through the power of its engines combined with Jaguar’s advanced dynamic performance technologies. Available in either the Ingenium 2-litre 4-cylinder Turbocharged Diesel unit or the 3-litre V6 Supercharged Petrol engines, the F-PACE delivers performance, efficiency and refinement without compromise. Jaguar has also built into the F-PACE some of the most advanced driver assistance systems available. It features the advanced, in-house Intelligent Driveline Dynamics (IDD) control system first developed for F-TYPE AWD, which preserves rear-wheel drive agility and handling character. Whenever greater traction is needed, IDD seamlessly transfers precisely the right amount of torque to the front axle, allowing the All-new F-PACE to exploit performance benefits of extra traction on all surfaces and in all weather conditions.
The F-PACE will be available in four trim levels – the entry-level Prestige, the sporty R-Sport and high performance S and First Edition, a special model to celebrate the launch of the All-new F-PACE.
Available in strictly limited numbers and in the first year of production only, the First Edition is powered by the 380PS Supercharged V6 petrol engine and is distinguished by two unique metallic paint colours – Caesium Blue and Halcyon Gold. Further highlights of the F-PACE First Edition include 22-inch Double Helix 15-spoke wheels with Grey finish and contrast inserts, Adaptive Dynamics, full-LED headlights, Gloss Black fender vents and a sliding panoramic roof. Inside, the Windsor soft-grain leather seats in Light Oyster feature twin-needle stitching and an embossed houndstooth pattern influenced by the C-X17’s award-winning interior. The traditional Jaguar craftsmanship blends seamlessly with the configurable 10-colour ambient lighting, state-of-the-art InControl Touch infotainment system and the 12.3-inch HD virtual instrument cluster.
“The F-PACE has been much awaited since its dramatic reveal at the Frankfurt Motor Show last year. Instantly recognisable as a Jaguar, our first-ever performance SUV combines maximum driving exhilaration and practicality and is sure to excite the senses,” says Russell Anderson, Managing Director of Asia Pacific Importers, Jaguar Land Rover. “With its seductive look, exceptional ride and handling, it is the ultimate practical sports car. It drives, feels and handles like a Jaguar and we are extremely excited and proud to finally launch the F-PACE in Singapore.”
The All-new F-PACE is now available at the Jaguar showroom with a launch price from SGD245,999 with 5-year servicing and guaranteed registration by July 2016.
