There is something constraining in latest Jaguar designs. They look good enough but not ravishing as they alluded with CF concept and XK to a degree. When they were designing new XE and new XF it looks like someone said stop its good enough we balanced beautiful and bland quite right. This F-Pace is no different, nice silhouette but its missing X factor in little details although its much better then XE or XF.

F-Type and XJ are so far only Jags they went out real far to grab that Jag charm back.

Looks like a next generation James Bond movie prop, is there a new movie coming?

audi isn't even worth mentioning. Q7 is ugly as fok
For me the only one that might come close to this is the Cayenne. Otherwise this should be one pretty kitty

Watch the all-new F-PACE defy gravity in a Guinness world record-breaking 360 degree loop. As we celebrate our 80th anniversary, our new performance SUV was driven with daring precision by Legendary Stunt Driver Terry Grant, showcasing its lightweight design, agility, sports car speed and performance. This is F-PACE.

This is the antidote to the ugliness that is the new Lexus RX.

Also, Jaguar announced the price, and it is surprisingly reasonable.

After looking at all the 2016 RX photos this is what they call "Plain Vanilla".

Wonder if the F-Pace will do for Jaguar as the Cayenne did for Porsche

F -Pace will be HUGE! It will overtake the Porsche Macan. I'm getting an F-Pace. Already called my dealer three times offering money.

British Vanilla!

After everyone catches up in the interior of SUV, Brits will be fading away.

The thread title should've been updated a long time ago...

Had a chance to see the F-Pace in person at a Jaguar event today. Looks like it will challenge the Macan in the segment. Doubt it will challenge the RX in sales, but it will most likely be a automotive magazine darling. Looks good if you like the current Jaguar design language without the awkwardness of what Porsche did with their crossovers.
