Serve It Up At Wimbledon With British Luxury At It's Finest
The 2022 Wimbledon Championships are officially underway as thousands of people pack into the All England Club to watch names like Andy Murray and Serena Williams. Since 1877, the illustrious tennis championship has been a critical date in sporting diaries and, since 2015, has been sponsored by an equally exclusive automobile marque – Jaguar. This partnership creates an intrinsic link between two British heritage brands. There is also a shared focus on sustainability for the future between the two names, making it the ideal moment to showcase the Jaguar I-PACE.
As the Official Car Partner of Wimbledon, Jaguar announced a number of key additions to their features during this year’s games. These include pop-up screening events across the country, including a special screening of matches at Everyman Cinema’s Granary Stage pop-up in London. As the event moves forward, we can expect historical plays from some of the world’s best tennis stars as well as upcoming talents too.
Starr Luxury Cars paves the way for you to experience the wonder of Jaguar, Wimbledon and exquisite British craftsmanship for yourself. Hire a Jaguar I-PACE (the official car of Wimbledon 2022) and experience luxury car rental and electrified power at your fingertips.
The Jaguar I-PACE at Wimbledon
The partnership between Wimbledon and Jaguar provides the marque with a unique opportunity to showcase one of its most exciting launches – the Jaguar I-PACE. The All England Club itself has set into place targets to help reduce emissions, improve resource efficiency and contribute to the net gain in biodiversity in its local area by 2030. Therefore, it stands to reason that the right automobile name would share a similar focus on reducing their impact on the environment.
The Jaguar I-PACE was launched as the marque’s first all-electric car. It seeks to reimagine the world of luxury vehicles, pairing together an elegant exterior with heightened electrified performance. The vehicle is, understandably, noted as being one of the best electric cars on the market to date and it’s not just because of the badge. Underneath the compact bonnet, you’ll find a 90kWh lithium-ion battery which powers two electric motors. This delivers a four-wheel drive with the ability to generate 396bhp. Put your foot down and you’ll feel the speed kick in. Impressively, the I-PACE can take you from 0-62mph in under 5 seconds (4.8 to be exact) and has the capacity for what it deems ‘real world driving’ for distances up to 292mph. If you can find the road, it also has a top speed of 124 mph, making it a clear competitor for many other luxury vehicles available today.
Electrified power at its finest
Jaguar has built a reputation for exquisite cars, impressive speed and undeniable luxury. And none of this falls short with the I-PACE. The marque has managed to develop a vehicle that not only looks beautiful but can tackle the demands of everyday living too. Plug it in overnight and let the battery charge fully before setting off. If you do need to stop on route, grab a coffee as the battery will take around 45 minutes to charge to 80%.
Aside from the power, the addition of an electric battery has also altered the vehicle’s aesthetics too. The bonnet is more compact than other Jaguar models, leading to more agile driving on city roads and when reversing into small parking spaces.
Slip inside undeniable comfort
Inside the plush cockpit, you’ll continue to bask in the beauty of exquisite Jaguar design. The marque has held true to its British heritage, keeping the interior much as you would expect from the iconic name. You’ll find five comfortable Recaro seats, enough for the entire family, alongside a 577-litre boot. Throw in your gym bag, tennis rackets and other sporting essentials – there’s plenty of space at the rear. And, if you’re planning on hiring a Jaguar I-PACE for long-term hire, the rear seats can be folded down to extend the boot to an impressive 1,453 litres too.
Nestled into the dashboard, you’ll find an easy-access and prestige infotainment set-up boasting Jaguar’s Touch Pro Duo system. Those in the front seat will benefit ten-fold from a new front-wheel position, affording them additional leg space to stretch out. You’ll sit nestled in a haven of leather, brushed aluminium and ambient lighting as well as having access to a navigational system, Bluetooth and both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It is quiet and calm inside – unless, of course, you want to turn up the Meridian 3D speakers to enjoy your favourite podcast or playlist. There are options for entertainment for the entire family inside, as well as that essence of luxury that ensures you know you’re sitting within a Jaguar.
