Inside, the E-Pace Checkered Flag features branded tread plates, Ebony Grained Leather upholstery with red stitching, R-Dynamic branded Soft Grain Leather Sport steering wheel, black gearshift paddles, and an Ebony Morzine headliner.

The 2020 E-Pace Checkered Flag Edition is powered by a 246 HP (250 PS) 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine with standard AWD.

If you find the special edition model’s price excessive, the base 2020 Jaguar E-Pace P250 AWD featuring the same powertrain starts at $39,950. The range also includes the P300 R-Dynamic AWD model powered by a 296 hp (300 PS) turbo-four available from $46,600 (both prices excluding $995 destination).

Besides the introduction of the Checkered Flag Edition, 2020 model year updates for all E-Pace models include standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and offer new available features including the Smart Settings self-learning driver recognition feature and Adaptive Dynamics system.
