The 2021 Jaguar F-Pace just got a thorough facelift. While the exterior changes are minor, the interior sees an all-new design and layout. Jaguar has also given the new F-Pace a plethora of mild-hybrid (MHEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrains.
Exterior changes for the 2021 Jaguar F-Pace include a newly designed front end, which features a new LED headlight design that features Jaguar’s new “Double J Blade” daytime running lights. There’s also a slightly larger grille and new front and rear bumpers. Moving towards the sides, and you’ll see that the side fender vents have been redesigned. At the back, there are a new pair of LED taillights with a sleeker design, along with a redesigned tailgate.
Moving inside, and you’ll see that the interior has been significantly updated. There’s a completely new dashboard design that houses a “floating” 11.4-inch touch screen. The giant screen is housed in a magnesium casing and it features Jaguar Land Rover’s latest Pivi Pro operating system. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard, while a 12.3-inch fully-digital instrument cluster is available as an option. All of the electronics are powered by Jaguar Land Rover’s Electronic Vehicle Architecture, in which all vehicle systems are capable of over-the-air (OTA) updates. Elsewhere, the new interior features significantly more premium materials and a much better build quality than its predecessor.
The 2021 Jaguar F-Pace features a plethora of MHEV powertrains and a single PHEV powertrain. Sitting at the top of the range is the P400e, in which this PHEV powertrain features a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine and an electric motor. The combined system output is at 398 hp and is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Zero to 100 kph is achieved in just 5 seconds flat, while its electric range is at 53 kilometers.
As for the MHEV powertrains, there are a total of five, and all are mated to a 48-volt integrated starter generator. The MHEV range kicks off with the 2.0-liter turbo diesel engines that produce 163 hp or 204 hp. There’s also a 3.0-liter inline-6 diesel that produces 300 hp. The only gasoline MHEV model available is the P400, which features a turbocharged and supercharged 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 that produces 394 hp and 550 Nm of torque. Zero to 100 kph for the P400 is achieved in just 5.4 seconds.
The only non-electrified powertrain available is a 2.0-liter inline-4 turbocharged gasoline engine that’s good for 247 hp. All aforementioned engines are mated to an 8-speed automatic and feature AWD.
