The Range Rover Electric marks a significant milestone in the brand’s evolution, boasting an innovative blend of modern luxury and all-terrain capability. It’s poised to become the quietest and most refined Range Rover yet. It will feature a unique active road noise cancellation configuration and cabin comfort levels, made possible by its electric underpinnings, promising serene modern luxury. Engineers have embarked on an intensive testing regimen, pushing prototypes through extreme conditions, varied terrains, and temperature ranges from -40°C to +50°C.
Thomas Müller, Executive Director of Product Engineering for Jaguar Land Rover Group said “We are on target to create the quietest and most refined Range Rover ever created. The magic ingredients that underpin the success of Range Rover remain unchanged: timeless, reductionist design, a serene cabin and go-anywhere capability – but now offered with zero tailpipe emissions. And as repeated throughout history, the Range Rover will continue to set the standard. The first of its type. An electric luxury SUV that can deliver on the Range Rover promise. A true global luxury product, as yet unseen in the industry. Created in the heart of the United Kingdom, the Range Rover Electric will slot into the range alongside its mild hybrid and plug-in electric hybrid siblings, offering a breadth of options to meet our clients’ needs.”
Manufactured in Solihull on the Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA), the Range Rover Electric will share production lines with existing hybrid models. The Electric Propulsion Manufacturing Centre in Wolverhampton will assemble batteries and electric drive units (EDUs), reflecting Range Rover’s commitment to electrification in line with its 2039 net-zero carbon ambition. The 800V architecture enables rapid charging on public networks. This vehicle’s capability will match that of a flagship Range Rover V8, underlining its dedication to maintaining performance standards and pioneering all-terrain technologies since its inception in 1970.
