Nick Treasure drives a Jaguar I-PACE 90kWh 2020.

This is Nick’s first electric car, he’s owned the Jaguar I-PACE from new and drives 15,000-20,000 miles annually. The current mileage of the car is between 40,000-50,000 miles and he achieves 180 miles from a full charge.

 

Why did you choose the Jaguar I-PACE?

It was a much better driving experience compared to the Audi and Mercedes options at the time. The build quality, handling and overall drive was excellent.

Surprise us! Tell us something people wouldn’t readily know about this electric car 

A middle aged man in an I-PACE can do serious harm to youngsters in their M3s and Porsches when it comes to ego busting at traffic lights:)

 

What electric car(s) are you interested in next and why?

Fisker – because it’s different.

 

Do you charge your electric car from home?

No

 

Do you use public charging networks?

Yes

 

What public charging networks would you recommend to others and why?

All of them!! Motorway service ones tend to be awful and the reliability of all of them is improving. Hats off to InstaVolt for facilities such as the one at Banbury, we just need more of them.

 

Please itemise where you’re saving money (or not) owning & running a Jaguar I-PACE

As a company car, going electric makes sense due to the lower tax paid but with cost of charging when on the road, the savings have gone: 15p per kW at Polar in 2020 and now 57 to 87p per kW.
