Jaguar’s Facelifted E-Pace Spotted Again, Will Debut In The Second Half Of 2020

Launched in 2017, the facelifted E-Pace compact SUV will reportedly be uncovered later this year.

Before presenting its updated baby crossover though, the carmaker will continue the testing and fine-tuning phase, and we will hopefully get more revealing spy shots than these that were taken in Germany recently.

Don’t let the disguise trick you, as the visual revisions should revolve around the bumper and headlights at the front, and could perhaps include a tweaked grille. The taillights seem to have a different pattern and the rear bumper appears to have been updated too.

The interior continues to be partially covered up, suggesting that the British company has revised some of it. If this is true, then we can expect an updated software for the infotainment system and digital instrument cluster, as well as a new steering wheel and probably the usual upholstery and trim changes that will further differentiate it from its predecessor.

Mild-hybrid powertrains are thought to be on the menu for the facelifted E-Pace, but this remains unconfirmed at the time of writing. In the meantime, we will remind you that the 2020 E-Pace is offered with a single 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the United States, available with two outputs.

The SE entry-level variant and Checkered Flag Edition benefit from 246 HP, for a 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) of 6.7 seconds and 143 mph (230 km/h) top speed, while the R-Dynamic S, R-Dynamic SE and R-Dynamic HSE have 296 HP. The latter models are 0.6 seconds quicker to 60 mph (96 km/h) and can top out at 149 mph (240 km/h).

The 2020 E-Pace has an MSRP of $39,950, $5,700 more than the rivalling Mercedes-Benz GLA in base spec.
