Actually considering an I-Pace

Maybe but most real world tests seem to put a LR AWD Mach E at about the same range as an ipace. It’s average charging speed is better but not as much as the peak ratings woukd suggest. Also, with the Mach E I’d have to get the GT version to avoid fake leather and get adaptive shocks which will likely have even less range. At that point I’m already in the same price range and I get a car with a less comfortable and nice interior in exchange for a faster 0-60 time that I don’t care about. Plus I still prefer the looks of the ipace over the Mach E.
