Specifications
The I-Pace has rated ranges of 298 miles (480 km) (WLTP) and 220 miles (350 km) (EPA, estimated). Its 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) time is 4.5 seconds. At constant highway speeds of 70 to 75 mph (112 or 121 kph) in realistic non-laboratory environmental conditions, the range using 90% of battery (before planning for a recharge at around 10%) is closer to 150-160 miles (240-260 km). The I-Pace has a wade depth of 50 cm.
Concept car
