City or highway — who is this car for
The Jaguar E-PACE gives up 6.1 mpg the moment you leave the motorway — 26.7 out there against 20.6 in town, a 30% drop worth $426 a year. A wide gap punishes stop-and-start traffic; a narrow one means the car doesn't care where you drive it.
| Measure | Value | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| City | 20.6 mpg | $1,864 a year if you only drive in town |
| Highway | 26.7 mpg | $1,438 a year if you mostly commute |
| Gap | +6.1 mpg (30%) | Wide — this car dislikes traffic |
How the E-PACE changed over the years
The E-PACE peaked in 2020 at 24 mpg (21 city, 28 highway) and was at its thirstiest in 2024 at 23 — 1 mpg apart, or $70 a year in fuel between buying one year and the other. The 2024 car does 23. Jumps usually mark a new generation or a new engine; dips often mean a heavier body or added all-wheel drive.
