Jaguar F-Pace: A family SUV with a sporting edge.

Buyers of midsize family SUVs are spoilt rotten at the moment. If they want a car that's luxurious and sophisticated, they can opt for an Audi Q5, BMW X3 or Mercedes GLC, whereas if they want something a bit sportier, they can opt for a Porsche Macan or Alfa Romeo Stelvio. If, however, you're after something that's somewhere in the middle, you could do much worse than the Jaguar F-Pace.

In this CarGurus UK video review, Rebecca Jackson takes a look at the P400e plug-in hybrid version, which uses both a 2.0-litre petrol engine and a an electric motor to develop just shy of 400 horsepower, along with an electric-only range of around 40 miles. Rebecca assesses the big Jag's talents in a variety of areas, such as practicality, quality, technology, affordability, and of course, what it's like to drive.

Pros
Great to drive
Good standard equipment
Roomy and practical

Cons
High running costs with V8 models
Poor interior quality on pre-facelift cars
Firm ride, especially on larger wheels

The CarGurus verdict
The Jaguar F-Pace is a car that’s always been very enjoyable to drive compared with most of its rivals, with sharp handling, detailed steering and punchy engines. It can’t quite match a Porsche Macan for thrills, but it has the measure of just about everything else in the midsize prestige SUV class. It’s also a very roomy and practical car in most of its forms, and it comes very well equipped as standard.

It's also worth bearing in mind, though, that the F-Pace is a car that’s changed a lot over the years, most notably with a facelift in 2021, which traded the earlier versions’ rather dowdy interior and clunky infotainment system for much posher, much better quality replacements. That’s why we’d say that the later example you can afford, the better the car you’ll get. It’s not perfect: the firm ride means plenty of rivals are more comfortable and some of the engines are rather thirsty. However, if you’re after a family SUV that you buy with your heart as well as your head, the F-Pace has a lot going for it.
