Jaguar Releases Details, Single Photo of F-Pace Crossover Before Frankfurt Debut

-

Jaguar is late to the luxury crossover game, but the new F-Pace crossover will pounce onto the scene next month, making its official debut at the Frankfurt auto show before hitting dealerships sometime next during 2016 as a 2017 model. Jaguar isn’t waiting, however, to release a few details about the new cat’s claws—its chassis—as well as this image of the final product in a wild wrap, showing a few more details of the front end than we’ve seen before.

We can’t be sure it’s actually going quickly, since we take dynamic pictures like this all the time and it might only be going 10 mph. But let’s just pretend that it’s carving a hard left-hander at seven or eight times that speed, and that its freshly described double control-arm front and “integral link” rear suspension setups are under full cornering load. If that is indeed the case, the trucklet’s flat attitude is impressive, giving credence to Jaguar’s claims that the aluminum-bodied F-Pace will handle with precision and control—or like the “ultimate practical Jaguar sports car” to use the automaker’s terminology. Speaking of Jaguar sports cars, Jaguar says some of the F-Pace’s technology—specifically its electric power steering and brake-based torque vectoring—measures up to the stuff it developed for the F-type.

There are still many many more details to learn about the F-Pace, so we wouldn’t be surprised to see more tidbits trickle out of Coventry before the crossover debuts in Frankfurt on Tuesday, September 15, at 10:30 a.m. local time.
