Expert Reply:

According to my contact at Curt, their # C13291 Class III hitch will not interfere with the back up sensors on your 2018 Jaguar F-Pace. The backup sensors are installed into the rear bumper cover, and the hitch is actually installed behind the sensors, sandwiched in between the factory bumper beam and the vehicle, so there's no way for the hitch to interfere with the sensors. You can see this in the installation video I've linked for you.

If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a few additional items to complete your towing system. For a trailer wiring harness, use part # 118785, a ball mount like # 2753 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
