Jaguar will showcase its 2016 model year line up at the 2016 Canadian International Auto Show held February 12 to 21, 2016 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. The 2017 Jaguar F-PACE will be making its Canadian debut.

2017 Jaguar F-PACE

The all-new 2017 Jaguar F-PACE is a medium luxury SUV designed and engineered to offer the agility, responsiveness and refinement that Jaguar cars are renowned for, together with the exceptional dynamics and everyday versatility of an SUV. The F-PACE is the latest Jaguar model, alongside the XE and XF, to benefit from the brand’s expertise in designing and manufacturing aluminum monocoques. In fact, the F-PACE features the largest amount of the Jaguar-developed RC5754 aluminum alloy yet; one third of the vehicle features this lightweight material, which comprises up to 75 percent recycled material.

Canadian buyers will have their choice of a 3.0L 340hp or 380hp supercharged gasoline V6 mated to an 8-speed transmission with power being routed to all four wheels via a torque-on-demand all-wheel drive system. Both variants are matched to eight-speed automatic transmissions and all-wheel drive. The 380hp engine is exclusive to the F-PACE S models, and can launch the performance SUV from 0-100 km/h in only 5.5 seconds, on to an electronically-limited top speed of 250 km/h.
