Truly enjoy reading the Tesla cultists get their knickers in a twist over the new Jaguar I-Pace. Previously they were screaming why aren’t other automakers following deity Musk’s electric utopian vision. Now Jaguar releases such a vehicle and they’ve entered their own ludicrous mode because Jaguar released a video with the Jaguar being faster than a somewhat similarly priced Tesla Model X, the 75 D variant. The I-Pace is then shown to be quicker than the more expensive Model X 100 D variant.
The howls from the cultists are hilarious as many are fixated on the demonstrations not being fair. Some are stating that Jaguar is releasing the I-Pace to continue to sell ICEs. Others said the I-Pace should only be compared with ICE models. However, the loudest howls are reserved for the test itself. Those cultists are howling that Jaguar committed fraud through “bait-and-switch” because Tony Kanan asked for a P100D for a repeat of the race but was supplied with a 100D instead. It doesn’t make any difference that Natalie Pinkham, the announcer, states that a P100D is double the price of the P100D. Other arguments focus on the I-Pace being a smaller SUV.
The next year shall be entertaining as more EVs from traditional automakers enter production,
