Tesla Model X 75d v Audi E-tron 55 v Jaguar I-PACE. £50k 4x4 Electric SUVs. Range, charging, comfort

#jaguar #tesla #audi

The battle of the £50,000 electric SUVs !

If you want and electric 4x4 then these should. E on your shopping list, but how do they compare exactly?
The only way to compare efficiency between electric cars is to drive them at exactly the same speed in the same conditions, so here we use an opportunity to drive the Jaguar I-PACE Audi 55 Quatrro and Tesla Model X75D.

Which one do you prefer?

I'd love an iPace: a touch of luxury and great to drive.

I'm no petrol/electro head but I do enjoy driving so it just ticks all my boxes.

[Kellric]

Love my I-Pace so much, best car I've ever driven ! Really fun to drive (even compared to other EV's), also very spacious for family and dogs :)

Good to see the Jaguar do well here and the results tally with my experience. It would be interesting to see how wheel size on the iPace affects its efficiency. Ours has 22” wheels, though there is an option for a smaller wheel with a massive tyre wall on the iPace.

Great video, thank you. The rolling circumference and the tyre pressures will affect the accuracy of the speedo as well as the distance measured. A slight variation is always detected, when comparing different cars, but tyre choice is always factor. Thanks again.

I love these 'stat-y' videos... really appeal to the EV anorak in me...!
And, whilst I don't like SUVs - their "brick-like" styling making them vastly less efficient than a more regularly styled car / estate - I have to take my hat off to the amazing charging speed of the e-Tron...!
In real world, hauling-ass-up-the-motorway journeys, that ability to charge faster for much longer is absolutely the way forward.
Lets hope that battery tech makes its way on to more affordable EVs in the very near future.
Great video... :-)

My day is always with jaguar I-pace.. it's awesome car.. fun and excellent car to drive..

[jmoranretana]

I really like this videos with comparison and numbers

[recklessrogue]

If I could afford it I'd love an I-pace I think it's a great looking car that seems fun to drive and decent on range and charging.

Another great video love these range tests/comparisons.

Informative and well presented, as usual. Interesting to see the comparative data on these three cars. One point though - It looked like the jag led the convey for most of the time. This will have given the other two cars the benefit of a slipstream, even if not following bumper to bumper, so their economy will have been improved. Next time you do such a comparative drive, and I hope you will, how about rotating the order so all have the same share of leading?

Love these videos. That Audi charges ridiculously fast 😳🤯 I'd probably get it if I were to choose out of the 3. I-Pace 2nd. Model X 3rd but only cause its got the smaller battery.

[spikebmth]

Would love to have quicker charging on our Kona, those speeds are very impressive!
Great video, the only way to get a comparison, the same journey in convoy

[thomassoderqvist]

Forgot to mention: great videos! Keep'em coming!

I just went and tried these 3 cars a few weeks ago, to compare them. To me, the Jaguar was awesome to drive and insanely fast! It felt even faster than what the stats say and the quality of the car feels really great as well! But it doesn't feel very large, if it is to be used as a family car...
The E-tron is so unbelievably quiet and comfortable to drive and just feels like a lovely, luxurios place to spend time. It's also quite a large car so would do well as a family car, I think.
The Model X was just appalling! I think it had something like 50.000 km. on it, but it really felt like it was falling apart when you drove it. Everything rattled and creaked, the drive was noisy, the front axles made a weird noise, it was terribly put together both inside and out, etc... I really wanted to like it, because it is a fun car with all the gadgets, the cool cabin layout, the crazy doors and so on. Also it's the largest car of the three, so again, would be a good family car. But my God, I could never live with the terrible build quality. It felt like driving an old, beat up van almost...
Does anyone share the same experience, or was I extremly unlucky with the Model X i tried..?

[FairlyOldGit]

I think Jaguars are setup with conservative speedometers - my XE is the same as your I-Pace.

[andrewpomeroy]

Great vid Richard, still love my model 3 performance I got from you, keep doing the videos 👍

[robertperry]

I wish you would have used a 90 Kw model X. This would put the batteries at a more level starting point.

[dsliase]

Just wondering if you realised you had superimposed the Jaguar figures over the Audi and vice versa?
Really interesting and informative video as usual, Thank You

FYI, the I-pace most efficient mode for roadtrip is dynamic, if the car has air suspension. Because in Dynamic mode it lowers itself at highway speeds and thus reduces drag. Also the GOM shows higher range when switching from Comfort to Dynamic, and actually no change at switching from Comfort to Eco.
This is explained in Jaguar manual, should anyone ever bothered reading it.

3:20 not much view through the back window in the iPace

There is a Norwegian ev guy on YouTube uses special app to monitor consumption and he mentioned once that besides limiting the AC, the range mode warms up the battery to a level (over 40 degrees) where it is the most efficient but it is not good for the battery in a long term, it means it’s wearing out the battery more.
It’s too bad I bought a Model S and the previous owner used it on range mode as I used on range mode on shorter journeys until now.😅 After 118k miles I have 191miles range 70 kw battery pack.
