I-PACE is tenth consecutive vehicle produced by #Jaguar Land Rover to receive five stars
Lightweight aluminium body and integrated battery pack deliver exceptional structural stiffness for maximum occupant protection
Jaguar’s first electric performance SUV scored 91% for adult occupant protection, 81% for child occupant protection and 81% for #safety assist. #ipace scored maximum points for both the side barrier impact and the more severe side pole test, with good protection of all critical body areas.
This latest result means all three members of Jaguar’s PACE SUV family, E-PACE, F-PACE and #ipace, have the maximum five-star Euro NCAP rating, demonstrating Jaguar’s commitment to engineering some of the safest family cars. #ipace is the tenth consecutive model from Britain’s biggest vehicle manufacturer to receive five stars.
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.
