This will still cross 80 lakhs in cities like Bangalore. 80L for a standard 2 litre petrol is hard to digest. They have a 300 bhp version 2L petrol in the UK. That would have been ideal. Great looking car, great handling SUV, but badly needs better engine options.

Fully agree with you SantoshBhat. This SUV has great looks and styling - since it is a 2l engine, atleast 300bhp on tap would have justified the looks, chassis and price for this SUV. Happy that Jaguar atleast introduced the petrol variant.
One question - does the 2l, 300 bhp unit do duty in any Jaguar/ Land Rover vehicles sold in India? I doubt it, hence they not provided this as option in FPace.

It does. On the recently launched F-Type 2.0 Ingenium model. Has 300 horses on tap with 400 Nm of torque. Goes quite fast as well if reviews are to be believed.
