FIVE-STAR EURO NCAP FOR JAGUAR’S ELECTRIC I-PACE
The #Jaguar #ipace has already received awards for its design, performance and handling. This latest award from Euro NCAP confirms the I-PACE’s exceptional #safety standards. The SUV has been expertly engineered with a lightweight aluminium body structure and integrated battery pack to provide outstanding crash protection for occupants. #safety is our biggest priority and it is fantastic to see the Euro NCAP results reflect this.
SIMON BLACK
SENIOR PROJECT LEADER, BODY ENGINEERING #Jaguar LAND ROVER
The I-PACE’s lightweight aluminium body structure delivers inherently high levels of stiffness, and when combined with the integral battery pack – protected by a structural aluminium frame – delivers the highest torsional rigidity of any #Jaguar yet, at 36kNm per degree.
Highlights of the body design include industry-first use of aluminium forgings, and Jaguar-first applications of post-form heat treatment to increase the strength of the aluminium alloys used in crash-critical areas.
I-PACE, also features advanced #safety technologies to protect road users and pedestrians. Technologies include a deployable bonnet and Autonomous Emergency Braking with Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection. #Jaguar also designed a unique Audible Vehicle Alert System (AVAS) for its first electric vehicle that warns road users when the vehicle is approaching. The sound can be heard at speeds up to 20km/h and exceeds the 56dB(A) minimum required by forthcoming European legislation. The system was tested in conjunction with members of Guide Dogs for the Blind, the UK’s leading charity for #people affected by sight loss.
In addition to #safety technologies, the performance SUV offers a full suite of advanced driver assistance systems including Adaptive Cruise Control with Steering Assist, Blind Spot Assist, and 360° Parking Aid.
