最近谍照记者再次拍到了捷豹E-Pace照片，这次还首次拍到了内装照片。虽然这次拍到的车辆仍进行了重度伪装，但可以看出它与F-Pace采用了相同的宽阔格栅和更倾斜风挡。车身后部的伪装面板似乎在遮盖其后部真实造型，或许这款小型跨界车将采用类似I-Pace的平滑后部。这次记者拍到的内装显示，车辆内部还未最后完工，车顶垂下很多电线，各种部件也是用胶带捆绑的。中控台上硕大显示屏看起来像是老款的监视器。由于车内布局凌乱，因此无法获得任何有用的结论。至于动力系统，该车将搭载捷豹路虎的Ingenium引擎，消费者可选择不同版本的2.0升涡轮四缸汽油和柴油引擎，未来还将增加混动版。最低端配置将提供前轮驱动，而其他版本则可提供全轮驱动。该车将在今年夏季首次亮相，随后将于年底上市。捷豹未来还将推出高性能版的F-Pace SVR，其功率约为372千瓦/500马力，该车将使捷豹能进入正在逐步增长的高性能跨界车市场。
Jaguar E-Pace Interior Spied For First Time
After arriving a little late to the crossover party, Jaguar is making up for lost time by preparing a pair of high-riding models. The I-Pace shows an eye towards the future with its fully electric drivetrain, and the E-Pace in these spy photos shows the British brand preparing a smaller CUV for the lineup.
This E-Pace remains under heavy camouflage in these photos, and fake panels distort the model’s shape. However, cues from its F-Pace big brother are evident in the broad grille and raked windshield. The panel boxing in the rear glass appears to conceal the crossover’s actual shape back there. It’s possible Jag’s smaller crossover could have a flowing rear like the I-Pace.
These shots also let us see the interior, and the photographs show that there’s still a lot of work to finish in the cabin. Bundles of wires hang from the roof and have tape holding them to various components. The massive screen on the center stack looks like an old computer monitor, too. Since the layout is so rough, it’s hard to draw any useful conclusions about the final vehicle.
Jaguar Land Rover’s Ingenium engine family will power the E-Pace. Buyers will be able to choose from various tunes of the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in diesel- and gasoline-fueled varieties. A hybrid might arrive later. The lowest trims in the lineup might be front-wheel drive, but some versions would route power to both axles.
The E-Pace should debut sometime this summer and be on sale in some markets before the end of the year. After the F-Pace’s easy time finding success, an even more affordable vehicle could be quite a hit. Look for JLR also to introduce the high-performance F-Pace SVR sometime before you need to replace the calendar. With an output reportedly around 500 horsepower (372 kilowatt) on tap, it’ll give Jag a model for competing in the growing performance crossover segment.
