Jaguar E-Pace
Jaguar says that the E-Pace is meant to drive like an XE. But can a tall, predominantly front-drive SUV really drive like a Jaguar saloon?

The all-new Jaguar E-Pace is Jaguar's first attempt at a compact SUV: the kind of car that will rival the Audi Q2 and Q3, and BMW's X1 and, a bit, the X3.

At 4.4m long it's a pretty compact car, and one based on Land Rover's Evoque and Discovery Sport architecture. Which means it's the first Jaguar that can be had with front-wheel drive since the X-Type.

Our test E-Pace is not front-drive: it's a 296bhp (300hp) range-topper, driving all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission and a four-wheel drive system that shares a fair amount with the one in a Ford Focus RS. But all of that means that it costs close to £50,000 in this specification.

Jaguar says that the E-Pace is meant to drive like an XE. But can a tall, predominantly front-drive SUV really drive like a Jaguar saloon? And even if it can, is it worth the money that Jaguar is asking for this top-spec version?
