Why did you choose the Jaguar I-PACE?

There isn’t another EV even close to the same spec for the money. It’s like looking at an Oled TV, you never want to go back, so once you test drive the I-PACE, nothing else makes you feel the same way.

Tell us something people wouldn’t readily know about your Jaguar I-PACE

All the other EVs we test drove seemed to be built to look the part, but the Jag is built to be the part hard to explain until you drive one.

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

A younger I-PACE.

Home charging unit

Fox ESS – We have a Fox solar inverter and battery too, so all plays well together.

Electricity supplier & tariff

E.ON – we pay 22p per kWh, but we haven’t imported anything for almost a year.

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

We use Shell chargers with the Shell App just because it’s easy and we have a card. We’ve only used it a few times, probably not even 100kWh, in total.
