Why on earth are YOU not providing a desirable range of colours for the i-Pace. - e.g. a choice of Greens and Blues, In these times, with URGENT need for environmental action, to not promote at least a couple of GREEN colour choices is absurd (Band-Wagon Overtakes i-Pace)!
Mind you, the choice of colours for All European Car Manufacturers is Dull Dull Dull and green seems especially rare!
Maybe someone needs to start an owners pressure group!!!
Green is (or at least always used to be) considered an unlucky colour that very few people wanted to have. And it makes economic sense (much to our dismay) to concentrate on supplying colours that the majority of sheep, er, people will buy.
Land Rover's even worse - I think their colour range is inspired by 50 Shades of Grey.
It's not just JLR though, we're currently pre-ordering a Mini Electric and considering the Mini is meant to be a 'fun' car, the choices are: 2 blacks, 2 greys, BRG and flat red.
I agree.
I was very frustrated with the available colours when I bought. I really wanted Loire Blue, a lovely dark blue available on other JLR cars built in UK. HRH Prince Charles got himself a Loire Blue I-Pace, when he got one to demonstrate his environmental credentials. The fact that his body shell had to be shipped to UK to paint then back to Austria to assemble seemed to have escaped notice!
I'd never want a green car (except maybe BRG) but that's my personal taste. And anecdotal evidence that green cars have lower residuals...
Just compare it with Tesla, let alone the polestar, a pallete of Nordic greys if ever I saw one.
Ipace is not as good as some, but better than others.
Of course these days it's really a moot argument. if you want something colour to sample - just get one in a free colour bank the metallic money and get it wrapped in a colours heme and design to suit your hearts desire.... Then come resale your original paint is nice and protected underneath...
I walked into a showroom today and was told that eiger grey will be replacing corris grey. However when I spoke to the leasing guy from the same showroom he said that its still corris grey and he does not believe they are changing it. Can anyone shed some light on this ?

I wonder if they've just renamed it (I believe to align with LR colours). For example, Glacier White became Yulong White (same paint code) around 2018.
Because all manufacturers make choice available based on most ppl choices to reduce cists. That's why u see a lot of Greys and so few real colours...
Look howany grey black or white ipace theoretical are 9n the roads compared to other colours and it's same for all cars.
Why bother with lot of colours when 80% of ppl choose black, white or grey ?
You are right about both greens. My last two Jags (XF and F-Pace) were both BRG and if it had been available on the I-Pace I would have ordered it.
Not being able to get a Jag in Green is like not being able to get a red Ferarri.
I-PACE has a similar number of exterior paint colours as other vehicles in the Jaguar range, generally 2 solid, 8 metallic/pearlescent, and 2 premium options.
The range of colours does differ from other Jaguars as I-PACE (and E-Pace) are made in a different factory to the rest of the Jaguar range.
I hope this has answered your question.
Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
For what it's worth, I believe Jaguar Racing Green would have been beautiful on I-PACE. I had an S-Type in that colour and it looked stunning, especially with light Oyster upholstery. Very disappointed in the very limited range of colours available on I-PACE. I suspect I'll settle for Photon Red, but would have much preferred a more metallic bright red such as Renault or Mazda do; or, better yet, JRG.

You didn't get the point.
Case is that you can have whatever you want by those JLR like to call their competitors.
Even colours with high depreciation. BTW I choose the colour I like on my cars. Not the colour a potential second hand owner likes. Doin that you end up with a car you didnt want and doesnt like
