2018 Jaguar E-Pace

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2018 E-Pace.

Transmission Automatic (S9)

The 2018 Jaguar E‑Pace arrives as a compact luxury crossover equipped with an automatic S9 transmission and a drivetrain that requires 7.4 qt of 0W‑20 oil, while its EPA ratings of 21 mpg city, 28 mpg highway and 24 mpg combined place it squarely in the efficient‑SUV segment. Its modest fuel consumption is matched by a straightforward service envelope, and the model’s early reliability record—six complaints recorded in 2019, the highest point in the 2019‑2024 window, dropping to just one complaint by 2021—suggests that the 2018 year sits at the beginning of a trend toward improving durability for the E‑Pace lineage.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 16,000 mi; spark plugs every 64,000 mi; coolant at 160,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 160,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Every 16,000 mi	Engine Oil (drain & refill) · Engine Oil Filter (replace) · Universal Vehicle Operation (road test)
Every 32,000 mi	Cabin Air Filter (replace)
Every 48,000 mi	Brake Hydraulic System (drain, refill & bleed) · Engine Air Filter Element (replace)
Every 64,000 mi	Spark Plugs (replace)
