Default E pace cabin smells like gasoline

My 2020 E pace with only 4500 miles smells of gasoline in the cabin. I’ve taken it to the dealer twice and they cannot replicate the problem. Has anyone else experienced this if so were they able to repair it.
it seems to happen after driving for about five minutes and is more pronounced when the AC is on.

Mate I have not had the issue in a Jag but I did in a volvo. I'll throw the suggestion into the ring.

In our case it ended up being an inspection plate that was missing in the centre tunnel, that let fuel fumes and then heat into the cabin, in fact it would get so hot that after a while you would almost burn yourself if you rested your leg on the tunnel (which we do over here given it is RHD, works well to brace yourself when attacking those pesky roundabouts).

It did have a very strong fuel smell, particularly if you gave it some stick.
