Looking at a I-Pace?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular I-Pace is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the I-Pace disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 28,845 in 2025 Q3 and stand at 28,198 in 2026 Q1, down 2%. That is up 109% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 612 are declared SORN — 1 in 47 of the 28,810 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.

Fuel and when it shows up in the statistics

DfT codes every vehicle in the Jaguar I-Pace generic-model group as battery-electric.

Jaguar I-Pace first appears in the published DfT series in 2018 Q1. Earlier quarters in this file do not include it, so that quarter is not a production start date.

I-Pace MOT pass rate

In 2024, 92% of 12,948 Jaguar I-Pace MOTs passed first time — above the 71.2% UK average. Pass rate moves with age: 92.1% of cars aged 3–5 years passed first time, against 88.8% aged 6–9 years.

  • Condition — 3.9% of tests. Corrosion, damage or wear on a tested component. Worth seeing in person, as the cost ranges from trivial to structural.
  • Steering Linkage Components — 0.9% of tests. Worn track rod ends or joints. Affects steering and tyre wear, and is a normal age-related repair.
  • Headlamp Aim — 0.9% of tests. Headlights pointing too high or low. Cheap to adjust, and common on every make.
  • Tread Depth — 0.7% of tests. Tyres below the 1.6mm legal limit. Budget for tyres, and treat it as a sign of how the car was maintained.
