Tesla, there’s a killer cat about to pounce and a stomp on your tail, and it’s called the Jaguar I-PACE.

I’ve seen some fast cars in my day, and the insane acceleration will always take you by surprise. The fastest vehicles I’ve ever seen in person were NHRA top fuel dragsters and that sort of acceleration (and noise) is mind-boggling to say the least.…
