Indeed, I didn't say otherwise. My point was facetious, sorry for lack of Smiley.
The X is big in terms of being able to stand in a Falcon-wing doorway and put a kid into a child seat.
Like I said, I don't think comparison of i-Pace against MS or, for that matter, MX, is useful.
I was talking about 0-60. Interior space is totally different. So sure you can compare, but the X is a more practical car when it comes to seating, or trunk space. Though I guess the I-Pace might not be a lot less practical, than the S. It has a really long wheelbase and "just" 200l less trunk space. But if you need that trunk space, sure the S is more practical, probably a lot.
Other than that I totally agree with your post, but there is still a lot of EV hate around here:
2018 leaf?? ugly
Isn't this car just the F-Pace with an electric drivetrain? For a buyer who does not care about EV vs ICE and just wants the best value for money, why would they ever buy the I-Pace over the F-Pace? The difference in starting price is almost 30k USD.
Well, compare it to the 380 hp F-Pace S, which is $60k and the price difference is closer to 10k. A SE I-Pace is about as well equipped as a 67k F-Pace and costs 77k. But it is quicker, has more wheelbase, has access to incentives and is electric.
Sure compared to the base car it is still expensive, but compare a Model X to a base Audi Q7 (the Audi is actually longer, for everyone wondering, 0.6 inches). 30k difference and the Audi already has 7 seats. So is the Model X poor value for money? I'd say no, but maybe some of you have a different opinion?
