      I would personally buy the Model 3 I live in the U.S. with worse charging infrastructure than in Western Europe. I travel far distances often and the Tesla Supercharger network would be a game changer. The Model 3 long range with 18-inch aero wheels would be my choice.

      Ipace is useless without fast charging network like Tesla's. It's also extremely inefficient getting only 230 miles from a 90kwh battery where model 3 gets 310 miles from 75kwh. I would like to see someone attempt to drive from Los Angeles to Las Vegas in an ipace, if it's even possible. In my model 3 it's fast and easy. Would have liked to see efficiency, software and safety compared as Tesla's unparalleled in these catagories.

      I'd pick the Tesla. A long list of reasons, but the main ones would be the design(both interior and exterior), over the air update improvements, and the potential of full self driving when it comes online with a software update. I also happen to love the company and wish to support them if i can. I like the way they provide a 3 step solution to clean renewable energy, and the way they innovate.

      One uses drivecycles for a reason - so that all vehicles are tested in the same manner. And whether that's NEDC, WLTP, or EPA (US06+HWFET), I-Pace and Model 3 aren't even close to each other (the former having dramatically less range than the latter).

      Let's be realistic, Jag will probably use Tesla batteries and charging network in less than a decade, as will most other manufacturers, so the playing field will level out. Until then, Tesla is leading the way on the technology and steadily catching up on build quality.

    1. Jaguar is not British - it’s owned by Tata (Indian)
    2. The I pace is made in Austria, not U.K
    3. If you bother watching to the end - he recommends the Tesla over the I Pace.
    You are correct that his range seems wrong, along with service costs.

    Something is very wrong in your review. I highly doubt your range for the Model 3. I have never gotten less than 280 miles on a full charge even when driving for extended periods at 75 MPH or greater. Granted my 3 is a LR, not performance, but I have the 19" sticky tyres, and am known to have a heavy foot. Also you failed to show that the I-Pace back seat headroom is severely compromised in the middle limiting it to 4 adults, while the Model 3's can fit five. We have traveled over 600 miles with 3 adults in the back and got no complaints.

    Thanks for a nice and generally balanced review. There are however 2 MAJOR untruths.
    1) Teslas are definitely NOT more expensive to service. They don't require regular service at all. I've paid less than £40 in maintenance for my Model S 85D during the last 3.5 years. Pollen filter + Windshield wipers. That's it. You won't find a cheaper car in its class or any class for that matter.
    2) The range of the Model 3 Performance (even with the 20" wheels) is MUCH superior to the I-Pace. At least 30 percent better in real life scenarios, whether in the wet or warm/dry conditions. The I-Pace is a nice EV, but the range is so far from its rated range it's not even funny. That and it can only do up to 7kW AC charging. How do I know? I own a Model S 85D and a Model 3 Performance. My brother in law owns the I-Pace HSE. We've done plenty of testing and comparing and often exchange cars.

      The mirror, steering wheel and seat adjustment profile is electronic so that anyone with the Tesla Taxi Fleet app will be able to configure the car to themselves when they call the car. If you own the car, you are not going to be moving these often, and just touch your profile to get your standard positions. If you DO NOT own the car but are calling for a ride, your profile will load into the car while it is on the way to you. Can't do this with mechanical buttons.

The ultraleather Tesla uses on Model S, X, 3 seats, doors, armrests, etc., is a super high end material normally found on million dollar yachts. It's very soft yet very durable. For example, all Tesla seats, both in shape and materials are extremely comfortable for most people.
      The interior design of Model 3 is minimalist, like Bauhaus, modern art or a zen garden. The shapes and design are excellent. I think it's much more refreshing than having 100 buttons, huge instrument clusters that block the view of the road, etc. Some people find the latter luxurious. I don't. :)
      All other interiors look overstyled now, compared to Model 3. (Overstyled means too busy, too complex, style for the sake of style and not function, trying too hard, etc.) Most of the accessory functions on Model 3 are automated, and all of the commonly used controls are on the steering wheel stalks or buttons or a very few fixed locations on the touchscreen. It turns out that having 100 buttons isn't really useful for daily driving, but do add complexity, confusion and cost.

Anything below about 60F seems to adversely affect range, as well as regen and available power, until the battery warms up. This can be mitigated somewhat by charging right before driving.

My lifetime wh/mi is around 280 and I have over 13,000 miles on the car (early performance with 18"wheels and aeros - non PUP). Still absolutely love the car... Just gotta know it's limits.

I have survived with the Leaf which in Nordic/Canadian trim is fitted with a battery 'heating blanket' that kicks in at really low temperatures (-20°C)... sure it loses up to 30% range when it is really cold but you can pre-heat the car on the home charger and then the heatpump is fairly efficient... But EV's just don't shine in the cold.
      As the model 3 has a real actuve pre-heat feature as you stated - that should be better.

    I kinda feel like you're creating drama with the Tesla card. That card is a *backup* to your phone, which works without you even pulling it out of your pocket.
    Some comparisons
    1. i-pace comes with keyless assist, to unlock the car. Tesla: comes with "You don't even have to think about that anymore"
    2. i-pace comes with heated steering wheel. Tesla comes with "Oh, you want the ENTIRE car to be a particular temp when you come out? Ok. I can do that for you."
    It's like you talking about how a flip phone has better physical buttons than an iphone.
    The Tesla is _different_ in ways *that are better*.

    So let me get this straight - every car company says they can produce an EV with better fit and finish and lower cost than Tesla but the only thing they're willing to concede is that Tesla has superior battery/BMS/motor tech because they've been doing this for a decade now... and yet somehow you managed to eek out more range on the I-Pace than it's EPA rating of 234 miles (you got 253). In the Tesla you got 239 miles while the EPA rating is 310 miles for combined city/highway. You therefor have a positive delta for the Ipace of 8.1% and and a negative delta for the Model 3 of 22.9%. You ran 20" wheels on the Ipace!!! There is no way in hell you got 253 miles on the IPace on a single charge unless you were on a 253 mile downhill grade drafting behind a semi half the time.
    if the same driver is driving both vehicles then we can conclude that either your driver (the host) was driving the vehicles with different driving styles (one was aggressive while the other was feather peddled), driving under different circumstances (one had AC AND HEAT running while the other had no HVAC running), one of the cars had a defect (ie a really bad tow in or bad camber), or that all 3 of the EPA/NEDC/WLTP rating agencies are complete rubbish (there's an English word for you to you keep you chaps happy, Americans would call it BS) and What Car knows how to do a controlled study better than these testing agencies.
    Occam's razor would lend us to the conclusion that What Car is either incompetent at testing or heavily biased and making stuff up to fit the narrative. Please, if you're going to start off saying at the 45 second mark that the IPace is the best EV that money can buy you have lost all credibility. The new MB EQC beats the Ipace for the same price and nearly the same class. If you have the money the Model X is significantly more "car" for the money.
    The one thing I really liked on the IPace (I drove one for 2 days) was the offroading ability which is significantly better than a Model 3 (obviously) and slightly better than the Model X. If there's any reason to get an Ipace it would be for people who live in an area with frequent mudslides or who do mild off roading. Most SUVs I see here in LA never see anything worse than the gravel in our potholes so 95% of drivers here only use their vehicles on the road. And yet your review didn't even bother to demonstrate that. Pathetic.

    Guys, if your range testing differs THAT much from every government testing agency on the planet ... you might consider reevaluating your methodology. Running a 20 mile test loop twice, calculating the kWh to recharge the battery to full, and then extrapolating the range based on the size of the battery isn't terribly accurate, as your results show.
    As just one example, your methodology appears to be including the efficiency of the entire charging system as part of your RANGE calculation -- which is obviously an error.

    Looked at both the Model 3 and the I-Pace, then rented the I-Pace for a week and then bought the I-Pace.
    First off, the build quality of the Jaguar simply is a lot better than on the Model 3, both on the outside as well as the inside. I don't think that is a very subjective statement and most people who look closely at both cars will agree.
    Second, I think the I-Pace is a much better looking car than the Model 3. That, of course, IS subjective and is very personal.
    I live in the Netherlands where you will see a lot of Model 3's (best selling car in 2019 actually), which, in my view at least, make it a bit like the VW Golf of EV's. Nice for Tesla, but I like to drive something different than just about every sales rep around.
    Have had the I-Pace now for six months and am very happy with it. Got it in November 2019 and am now at 12K miles with zero problems. With the weather getting warmer this month (May 2020), my range at 100% SoC has now improved to around 450 km (280 miles). That's well ABOVE the EPA-rating of 234 miles btw.
    Average consumption has dropped from my initial 22-24 kWh/100 km in December/January to around 18.5 kWh/100 km in May. However, with the C19-crisis there are very little traffic jams, so driving is more relaxed and that probably helps.
    Have had ZERO issues with the car, no squaks or rattles, very quiet and comfortable. Am very happy I choose the I-Pace. The Model 3 certainly is a good car and I can understand owners are happy with it, but it just doesn't do much for me.

Head-smackingly bad.

    Thought this was a really good review, commendably thorough.

But if the smaller Tesla actually has *more* cargo volume than the Jag, I guess it is just about a valid comparison.
    That said, the WhatCar real-world range test remains a bit of a head-scratcher for me. Several of the cars tested perform very differently to owner experiences that I've seen elsewhere, and these two cars are particularly illustrative of that.

    The thing about the key card position for driving, is that it is only necessary until you press the brake, and select D. Then the key card can be replaced into your wallet or purse. I myself have sprung for the cost of the Tesla Model 3 fob, which gives me full authority even if my phone is not on my person or I have forgotten to power it up coming from a meeting where phones are to be off.
    The fob stays in my pocket and I prefer to use it when in public places from my pocket to assure myself that the car has locked. It does lock on walk-away but I walk fast, and looking back to see the mirror fold has occurred is too annoying in most car parks. So tapping the fob top once gives me the reassuring sound and sight of the mirrors folding as I begin my walk to the shops.

When the model 3 perf averages 120 km/hour, he uses on average 200wh/km which gives it a 365km or 228 miles range. When the ipace averages 120Km/hour it uses on average 311 wh/km which gives it a 261km or 163 miles range. So where did what car go wrong ?

Since EVERYTHING has to be done from the screen, you can then control everything and place limits on what you can do and how much of it you get. That way people who use your car on a sharing service, can be limited to only certain functions of the car.

    Part of the brilliance of the Model 3 interior approach is that it is so utterly revolutionary that it defies becoming outdated.
    Everything is clean and tasteful, with all functions successfully (yes, very successfully) contained in a bespoke interface. No physical buttons are missed whatsoever. Only by trolls that have never driven one. They miss buttons in a car they have never driven. That's right!
    No physical buttons not only eliminates hundreds of potential small parts failures, from a loose collection of source manufacturers, but offers endless updatabilty and configurability.
    All those fancy plastic moulds and embellishments on legacy cars are, in truth, only good for a few years. Until the refreshed model comes. Or that particular design language is adjudged "dated".
    Tesla's masterstroke with the the Model 3 interior is that it understands that, in order to bend the spoon, you have to realise there is no spoon.

    Overall a good review but some glaring oddness at the same time.
    Range. Obvious one, something isn't right there as you can go watch any other range test and your tests are waaaaay off. For example Quentin Wilson just did a range test on UK roads just a few days ago and starting with the battery at 302 miles range, drove "100 miles" at motorway speeds (70-80mph he says) and arrived with 194 miles of range left (aka 108 mile range drop). A quick calculation says the Tesla stated 329 mile range would equal 302 miles of real range at that usage rate - and that's at UK motorway speeds even and not the more efficient, slower town driving speeds. This matches up with real world usage across hundreds of similar videos all over RUclips as well...
    The "key". Sigh. Those are the emergency keys for when your phone is dead/lost/forgotten. Pop it in your wallet (hence why it's credit card sized...) and forget about it. Your phone acts as keyless entry through paired bluetooth and unlocks the car as you walk towards it.
    Service costs.
    Jaguar say to service the car every 2 years/21k miles. They'll sell you a 3 year service pack for £1000 to give you some idea of that cost. Jag (or any traditional dealerships) make more money on the services than selling the actual cars. They HAVE to make money on the servicing because that's what keeps the dealership network running.
    Telsa servicing costs are approximately £1000 less than that (aka you don't need to do anything, not even to comply with the terms of the warranty... it's simply not needed). You should probably consider a brake fluid change every 2 years so lets count that. My local garage does those for £50. As the Jag service pack is over 3 years lets call that £75 for the 3 years for the Tesla.
    By your logic (assuming tyre costs etc are broadly the same) £1000 is somehow less than £75. What numbers did you use?

    One of the reason Tesla do so well in EPA is that their regen is brilliant (look at the City driving figure that's part of EPA). Once warmed up I never touch the brakes - even on the Snake Pass in Derbyshire which has some sharp bends. I occasionally hit the brakes to clean the disks.

    Complains about the model 3 key card being impractical (which is always supposed to be a spare) then proceeds seconds later to explain about the app and how brilliant it is- which was always intended to be the primary key!!??
    You (or the person that wrote the script) wrote a tonne of contradictory statements all the way through when looking at both cars.
    Very very odd methodology that leaves viewers to hunt down where the actual key points of comparison are.
    Concise reviews with cogent points of comparison would be greatly appreciated.
    It’s like you’ve got a split personality that formulated a 50/50 split of every statement. I like it (but I don’t). The key is really really annoying (but there’s this app). I don’t like the gloss black plastic in the Tesla, I like the gloss black plastic in the Jaguar. The ride of the Tesla is quite harsh over bumps, (moments later) the Tesla is really good over even the bumpiest British roads (even later on) the Tesla is incredibly flat over bumps. What’s the conclusion we can draw from any of this??

    I will be ordering a Tesla model 3 after er summer with a tow hitch. Model 3 tow capacity is 900 kg, better than I-pace. And The I pace is much more thirsty than model 3, so model 3 long range has much better range Than i pace. And quicker 0 to 60 😀 and the summon function😁and Sentry mode😁

    On long trips, I switch my 3 to CHILL mode and get noticable range improvement but less smiles per mile... haha

    While CarPlay may not be available on the Tesla, Spotify and TuneIn Internet radio are. No mention was made of Tesla‘s online connectivity. But it was stated the Tesla costs more to service - what service?

      CarPlay isn’t the same as offering music apps.

      Korus Gaming it does a lot, if you are someone who never uses their phone while driving then CarPlay is the only way to be able to send and receive, hear messages etc on messages and WhatsApp. Siri plays the part here. You get the notification of a message, it reads it out then you can reply or not using voice commands which work great. Brilliant system, Bluetooth is only good for calls and music. Some people won’t care as they use their phones to text and do crap with but I put the phone away and can’t visually see it. Shame others can’t do as such
