2017 Jaguar F-PACE 35t Prestige Sport Utility 4D – The Supercharged British Maverick of Sports-Sedan Agility and Luxury Utility
The 2017 Jaguar F-PACE 35t Prestige represents a historic, paradigm-shifting milestone for the legendary British marque, marking Jaguar's highly anticipated, award-winning grand debut into the luxury crossover segment. Engineered from a blank canvas to completely shatter the stereotype of the traditional, soft-roading family utility vehicle, the F-PACE is heavily built on an advanced, ultra-lightweight Lightweight Aluminum Architecturecomposed of 80% aluminum. Positioned at the premium, tech-forward Prestige tier, this athletic five-passenger crossover layers a whisper-quiet, hand-stitched leather sanctuary over a track-bred performance chassis. It serves as a commanding, high-impact mobile office for professionals during the week and an aggressive all-wheel-drive touring asset on the weekend, handling daily travel with absolute mechanical poise.
Under the long, sculpted aluminum hood lies an absolute masterpiece of modern performance engineering: a ferocious 3.0-liter Twin-Vortex Roots-type Supercharged DOHC V6 engine, straight from the F-TYPE sports car. This high-output powerplant hammers out a fierce 340 horsepower at 6,500 RPM and a robust 332 lb-ft of torque available at 4,500 RPM. This immediate, linear power curve is managed by an advanced, smooth-shifting ZF 8-speed automatic transmission featuring steering-wheel-mounted satin aluminum paddle shifters and an elegant, rising rotary gear selector. Rocketing this luxury cruiser from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering, sports-car-rivaling 5.4 seconds, the supercharged V6 provides an instantaneous surge of highway passing muscle accompanied by a rich, snarling mechanical exhaust note.
The driving experience is heavily characterized by its surgical handling precision, flat-folding cornering stability, and absolute high-speed composure on the interstate. Featuring a sophisticated, F-TYPE-derived independent double-wishbone front suspension and an advanced Integral Link rear suspension setup, the F-PACE tracks straight with unparalleled agility. Performance is managed by Jaguar's intelligent Instinctive All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system, which runs with a heavy rear-wheel power bias during normal conditions to maintain classic sports-car dynamics, but can shift torque to the front wheels in milliseconds upon detecting slip. Standard JaguarDrive Control allows you to instantly alter the vehicle's personality across Eco, Dynamic, Normal, and Rain/Ice/Snow modes—reconfiguring throttle mapping, transmission shift points, and steering weight to ensure a deeply planted feel on any tarmac.
On the exterior, the 2017 F-PACE executes a stunning styling triumph, showcasing bold, wind-tunnel-carved proportions and prestigious British aesthetic trim details, featuring:
