Sound decision

Jaguar designed the I-pace to honour the first principles of driving enthusiasts, including the way it sounds. In addition to the natural whine from a pair of electric motors, the Digital Sound Scape feeds an artificial noise through to the cabin via the stereo system. The level of augmentation can be altered and is louder when the drive mode is switched to Dynamic. At its most vocal, the result is a weirdly appealing blend of electric motor whistle, Jetsons hover car and Freightliner exhaust brake rumble.
