See the Jaguar I-Pace EV plow through winter testing

Jaguar announced Wednesday that the I-Pace EV will get a proper unveiling on Mar. 1 at 1 p.m. ET.   

That's five days before its on-stage debut at the Geneva Motor Show.

With a 100-kW DC fast charger, the I-Pace can fill its battery from zero to 80 percent in about 45 minutes.     

That's roughly the same amount of time it takes to fill a long-range Tesla at one of its Supercharger stands, but Superchargers crank out north of 120 kW.

Thus, it's likely that the I-Pace won't be able to match Tesla's longer-range cars, but we'll find out soon enough.

When it debuted, Jaguar estimated the I-Pace's range at about 220 miles, thanks to a 90-kWh battery pack.     

It will be interesting to see how the temperatures seen here affect the EV's range.   

When the concept debuted in 2016, Jaguar estimated the I-Pace's output at about 400 horsepower and more than 500 pound-feet of torque.

It's believed to pack a 0-to-60 time in the 4-second range.

As for cost... well, don't expect it to sell for Hyundai Elantra money, but it shouldn't be Tesla Model X money, either.

We'll find out soon either way!
