I think you should also consider Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. They were the 1st to launch the electric SUV and most of the concepts in eTron are from Outlander. It is almost half the price and it is a good car. I know it as I had it for 4 years before trading it for Model S.
Sounds like a massive downgrade to me and I don't see what a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has in common with the new all-electric e-Tron? Maybe you are thinking of the current Audi PHEVs?
I've stuck a deposit down on next year's Audi e-tron
@Peteski tells me that latest i-Pace tests are showing good range, but initial test drives were well over 400 wH/mile. I have heard nothing from Jaguar acknowledging the problem, or that they have fixed it, so the issue only came to public attention by social media - worse sort of PR I reckon ...
Due to the exponential increase in buying an equivalent to my 2016 MS85D, a new MS100D feels prohibitively expensive.
So, I've stuck a deposit down on next year's Audi e-tron.
Anyone else done/considering?
I sat in an iPace at a music festival near me last weekend. I didn't get to drive it, so I can only comment on looks/interior.
I didn't like the looks.
I didn't like the interior.
The two young douche nozzles who were at the tent took pictures of my wife and I looking at the car without our permission, likely to use as marketing material. The whole experience was *ick*.
I'm not surprised short test drives are showing over 400 Wh/mile
The iPace is smaller, .., aero ... not amazing ... it should still be up around 250 miles on a long run. I think What Car? said in their recent test that the S 75D had better range than the iPace
I guess I'm turning into a Tesla fanboy
Maybe that's why he/she put a deposit down on an Audi e-tron instead?
FWIW I wasn't overly impressed with sitting in the iPace either. Exterior looks are okay for me (didn't like the huge plastic filler flap or oversized front grille), but I was most disappointed with the interior. It felt cramped and fussy and I hated the glossy walnut door trims on the car I sat in. Also hated the displays, seemed backward compared to the cleaner more intuitive Tesla interface. But I can see the appeal to someone reluctant to move into the future of touchscreen displays and clean minimalist eco design, lol.

I don't reckon we are a good candidate though ... we were already either convinced by, or have become convinced by, the minimalist-cabin in the Tesla and the HiTech screen, OTA, Gadgetry ... clever differentiation / marketing move. It will put some people off, but those who either liked it, or who became used to it, might very well want to stick with it.
I reckon all the Jaguar owners I know would be more happy with "familiar" buttons and knobs and wall-to-wall Walnut
But all that stuff is "what you like" and very subjective. I see folk talking about iPace in terms of "Looks better", "Drives better", "Handles better" which is a conversation to be had about any new car purchase, surely? but they don't mention the questions that I would have: IF I found a Rapid CCS charger how faster would it charge, when would it taper, how will the battery perform in the cold (and how well will the cabin heater work). All the rest, about looks and colour, is down to the individual.
