Overview
editDesigned under the direction of Jaguar chief designer Ian Callum, the vehicle uses the JLR PTA platform, as used by the second incarnation of Range Rover Evoque and the second incarnation of Land Rover Discovery Sport.[4][5]
The car has a transverse front engine and is available in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions.[5]
Stunt driver Terry Grant performed a world record barrel roll jump in the car for the reveal which took place at the London ExCel centre.[3] The car did a 270 degree barrel roll and travelled 50 feet (15.3 metres) through the air.
Engines

In 2021, a facelift of the E-Pace included the addition of mild hybrid and plug in hybrid variants.[6]
