The F-Pace is as luxurious and comfortable as a Jag 4x4 should be, while its relatively high running costs have been somewhat addressed with the introduction of new mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains. Under the skin, the F-Pace shares running gear with the XE and XF models, but the SUV body means it offers greater practicality than its saloon siblings.

The F-Pace is a front-runner in the mid-sized premium SUV class, where it rivals models such as the Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLC. Also worth considering are alternative choices such as the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Porsche Macan, Lexus NX and Volvo XC60, as well as the Range Rover Velar, which is similar to the F-Pace under the skin.

A facelift in late 2020 saw minor revisions to the F-Pace's already handsome exterior, while the cabin was treated to a significant overhaul - the most notable update being the inclusion of a larger 11.4-inch infotainment touchscreen, running Jaguar Land Rover's latest Pivi Pro operating system. As Nicola Hume finds out in this in-depth review, the results have been transformative.
