I'm expecting it to look similar to the Italian Racing Red that the Jaguar XE is offered with, maybe in a brighter shade. Jaguar is really on point with their mode lineup recently and I can't wait to see the Photon Red I-Pace in auto show pictures.
I-Pace To Debut In Geneva With Eye-catching Red Paint
Jaguar is preparing their own electric crossover SUV and the automaker is planning to make the I-Pace’s European debut at the Geneva Motor Show a memorable one with a new paint called Photon Red.
Generally, concept vehicles will circulate around various motor shows for a year or so and to keep the public’s interest, some automakers will change the concept’s paint color on its second or third debut. We first saw the I-Pace at the LA Auto Show last year in November and it was sporting a silver paint job, but as Jaguar’s first-ever battery-powered electric vehicle the I-Pace deserves its own paint and that’s where Photon Red comes in.
"The I-PACE Concept is a radical departure for electric vehicles. It represents the next generation of battery electric vehicle design. It's a dramatic, future-facing design - the product of authentic Jaguar DNA matched with beautiful, premium details and British craftsmanship," said design boss Ian Callum.
"This isn't just a concept. It is a preview of a five-seat production car that will be on the road in 2018. This will be Jaguar's first-ever battery-powered electric vehicle and opens a new chapter in the history of our legendary brand."
Competing against the Model X, the I-Pace’s performance is nothing to sneeze at. The concept is equipped with two electric motors for an output of 400 HP and 516 lb-ft of torque. That’s enough to push it from 0-60 mph in just 4 seconds. You’d think the vehicle’s range would take a hit in light of these numbers, but the I-Pace is expected to have an impressive 500 km (310 mile) driving range.
The 87th Geneva International Motor Show is set to take place from March 9-19th and the Photon Red I-Pace will be there.

Odds are it is since usually there's always some standard colors that are offered regardless which model you get. Now this being an EV, Jag might want to offer up some first time colors that give it a more obvious EV look if ya know what I mean.
The concepts overall color scheme was a good example of this..

It's at the Geneva show now! The paint looks a bit orange to me depending on the lighting and angle, so I really can't tell what the Photon Red really looks like.
