JAAAAAAAG GOES ROGUE! Driver of £80k Jaguar I-Pace reveals moment he realized electric vehicle had gone rogue as it raced down motorway before police rammed it (and this isn’t the first time it’s happened).
A driver who was trapped behind the wheel of an out-of-control Jaguar I-Pace has revealed to MailOnline how he cheated death as his car accelerated up to 100mph on the busy M62 motorway without brakes.
Nathan Owen, 31, was on his way back from his first day at a new job when his 2019 electric car started malfunctioning, sparking a huge police operation to bring his car to a stop after 35 minutes of hell.
But he told how his car had also gone rogue on the motorway in December, this time reaching up to 120mph. He claims Jaguar handed him his car back 24 hours after he had taken it in to be looked at.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline about his latest run-in, the crisis support worker admitted: ‘In the back of my mind, I was thinking I’m going to end up crashing the car, I’m going to kill myself or I’m going to kill an innocent person on the roads.’
Mr Owen, originally from North Wales, added: ‘The car was in its own world – it just had no brakes. The worst thing about it is that it’s happened before.’
In 2024, Jaaaag owners long for the days when the poor Lucas Electric build quality prevented their cars from becoming self-aware and roaming the countryside looking for paintings to burgle and banks to rob.
