Jaguar F-Pace crowned coolest school run car

It’s official – the car with the most ‘school gate cred’ for dads is the award-winning Jaguar F-Pace.

Jaguar’s first-ever SUV beat the Range Rover Evoque to the title, plus the ‘school run’ star of TV adverts – the Volkswagen Tiguan.

The poll of motoring editors at automotive experts hpi comes ahead of Father’s Day.

Top 5 cool cars for dads

1) Jaguar F-Pace
2) Range Rover Evoque
3) VW Tiguan
4) Audi TT
5) BMW X1

“With Father’s Day this month we thought it would be fun to look at some of the makes and models of cars that can give the ultimate feeling of school gate cred,” said James Dower, senior Black Book editor at hpi.

“Our team of editors considered everything from top of the range supercars to one-off fantasy cars as seen in the movies such as the classic DeLorean from Back to the Future or Vin Diesel’s 1968 Dodge Charger featured in the latest Fast and the Furious movie.

“They eventually decided to keep it real by settling for more realistic vehicles that would really appeal to dads.”
