I’ve just come back from a few days in Amsterdam, the first thing you notice is how many cars are hybrids, then how many Tesla’s but the big thing and considering how recently they’ve been launched is how many Jaguar I-Paces are on the road. They are big but the more I saw the better they looked. Justified car of the year?

I saw one yesterday at a local charging point. It is a distinctive looking car with unusual proportions (especially for a Jag). But my understanding is that while it isn't small, it isn't that big either. The very short bonnet, and 'cab forward' look is one of the benefits of an electric powertrain, they can maximise the interior space for a given footprint. It is shorter than the F-Pace, but has much more interior space.

At almost £65k I can understand why I have never seen one.

One passed us at some speed on the French autoroute a couple of weeks ago. Not long after we pulled in to a service area and there it was getting a charge up. It left about the same time as we did so it can't have been charging for more than 30 minutes. Are super fast networks available for cars other than Teslas? Maybe it was just topping up.

That ain't bad compared to the Tesla Model X. While they do kick off at £73k, that is with a 60kWh motor, to get the equivalent 90kWh the Jag has you'd have to put spend £90k.

Interesting video. If this is the electric future and we start to get more variety and smaller premium vehicles it’s starting to look more promising.
