Our favourite engine is the D200 diesel. It's much stronger and can officially haul the E-Pace to 60mph from a standstill in a respectable 8.0 seconds.

2.0 D200

Estate

Jaguars are consistently among the best-handling cars of their kind, with the firm’s model range encompassing the XE, XF and XJ saloons, the F-Type sports cars and multiple SUVs.

Jaguar was actually relatively late to launch its first SUV, the F-Pace, but it quickly followed it up with the smaller E-Pace and the all-electric I-Pace.

That SUV range will keep growing, too, with larger and more luxurious SUVs planned to take on the Porsche Cayenne and the Range Rover from sister brand Land Rover.

E-PACE

This mid-spec trim gets everything you’ll find on R-Dynamic S models but adds extra kit, including larger 19in alloy wheels, a panoramic roof, keyless entry and an upgraded Meridian sound system. It doesn’t add too much to the price tag, but we still think you’re better off with the entry-level trim.

Jaguar E-Pace

Sharp looks and plenty of standard equipment add to the E-Pace’s appeal, but an unsettled ride, below-par efficiency and poor reliability detract from the overall package. Ultimately, the Range Rover Evoque and Volvo XC40 are more comfortable, plusher inside and more practical, while also depreciating more slowly.


<h2>What we're looking for:</h2><ul><li>Comfortable ride </li> <li>Feature-filled infotainment </li> <li>Space for child seats </li> <li>Robust build quality </li> <li>Practical storage spaces </li> <li>A boot fit for a family holiday </li> <li>Fuel-efficient engines</li></ul>

While we define a small SUV&nbsp;as something&nbsp;less than 4.3 metres long and a large SUV as measuring more than 4.5 metres, family SUVs tread the middle ground.

As the name suggests, the vast majority are&nbsp;designed for family duties rather than serious off-roading, so practicality is paramount. However, that&nbsp;shouldn't come at the expense of a decent drive; the best examples combine tidy handling with smooth engines&nbsp;and a ride that's comfortable&nbsp;enough to ensure the kids aren't left feeling queasy.
