\/>\u25ba Petrol V8 power and range but without the pistons<br \/>\u25ba Quiet, refined and brilliant off-road, if heavy and expensive<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After a protracted gestation Land Rover\u2019s finally pulled the covers off its first ever EV, the Range Rover Electric. The order book is now open for the long-awaited, all-electric luxury SUV, with pricing from \u00a3154,000 for the EV550 Autobiography.<\/p>\n<p>Worried we\u2019ve used the wrong pictures? We have not. As well as being absolutely on the nose, that Range Rover Electric name tells you a great deal about JLR\u2019s first zero-emission Rangie. It is many things, including superb to drive off-road (we\u2019ve now driven a number of prototypes) but it is not a clean-sheet EV. <\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Instead, it\u2019s very deliberately an electric version of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/range-rover\/suv\/\">Range Rover<\/a>; another powertrain option available for a car you\u2019ll still be able to buy with diesel, petrol and plug-in power for the foreseeable future. As such it looks much the same as any other L460 Range Rover, with only a blanked-off grille and low-drag wheels betraying its need to make every kWh go further. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s the technology under the skin?<\/h2>\n<p>Like its Range Rover Sport sibling, the current, fifth-generation L460 Range Rover uses JLR\u2019s versatile MLA platform. Created from scratch to be ready for full electrification, MLA is no bodge. But neither is it a dedicated EV platform, and that\u2019s evident in some of the compromises required in making this car a reality. <\/p>\n<p>On one hand it can\u2019t offer the range or efficiency of the new generation of smaller, road-orientated all-electric SUVs like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/bmw\/ix3-suv\/\">BMW iX3<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/volvo\/2026-ex60-suv\/\">Volvo EX60<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/mercedes-benz\/2026-glc-electric\/\">Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric<\/a>, let alone <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-news\/first-official-pictures\/bmw\/2026-x5\/\">BMW\u2019s iX5<\/a>, which arrives early next year offering a usable 141kWh of battery capacity and likely 450-500 miles of range. But on the other the Range Rover Electric is a Range Rover: looks like one, smells like one, feels like one and will happily plough across fields\/jungles\/ice caps\/country estates like one.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/070-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Range Rover Electric (2026): front three quarter off-roading, green paint\" class=\"wp-image-271240\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/070-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/720x0\/070-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/1040x0\/070-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<p>The 2810kg Range Rover Electric uses twin 349bhp electric motors, one on each axle, for all-wheel drive without the need for conventional gearbox, transfer case or propshaft. Which is just as well, because in their place sits the vast battery: a double-stacked 118.5kWh unit with an 800-volt electrical architecture and with the kind of split-charging technology we first saw on the Porsche Macan Electric, helping optimise charging speeds on every kind of charger. The official charge figures are 10-80% in 22 minutes or 137 miles of range in 10 minutes, with a 350kW peak charging rate. The WLTP range figure is 372 miles, or 333 miles \u2018real world\u2019 according to JLR. \u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Where the Range Rover Electric feels like a true Range Rover is in the robustness of its specification, not to mention some of the engineering decisions taken to ensure this is a car worthy of the badge. For example, JLR\u2019s developed its own heat management unit, badged ThermAssist, which looks something like a small hydroelectric power station and is key, it says, to the Electric\u2019s ability to just keep on keeping on, whether you\u2019re blazing a trail across the frozen wastes of the Arctic Circle or working the thing hard in the sand dunes beneath a cruel, hot sun. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/071-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Range Rover Electric (2026): side view off-roading, green paint\" class=\"wp-image-271241\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/071-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/720x0\/071-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/1040x0\/071-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<p>What\u2019s more, the Range Rover Electric was also due to use a split approach to e-motor technology, with a more powerful unit on the rear axle and a more compact, more efficient (and likely less expensive) unit up front. But issues with performance shortfall and thermal robustness during the extensive (nearly a million miles covered, real and virtual) and exotic (Arjeplog, Dubai, Herefordshire\u2026) testing programme forced a mid-project change to twin high-output permanent magnet units.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does it drive?<\/h2>\n<p>How the new Range Rover Electric feels on the road remains an unknown. For answers there we\u2019ll have to wait a couple of months. But we\u2019ve driven the car plenty on surfaces ranging from man-made obstacle courses to snow, ice and gravel tracks, and on that evidence there\u2019s no doubt JLR\u2019s fully exploited the potential all-electric powertrains have to out-perform conventional ones away from the tarmac.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/072-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Range Rover Electric (2026): front off-roading, green paint\" class=\"wp-image-271242\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/072-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/720x0\/072-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/1040x0\/072-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<p>In part this is down to the fidelity of control you have over the powertrain, giving a level of precision hard to achieve with a conventional powertrain, which literally has a lot of moving parts \u2013 clutches, gears lash, spinning shafts, turbos and so on \u2013 to juggle. The Range Rover Electric worries about none of these, while its intelligent driveline technology and integrated traction management mean slip is managed at a processing speed unimaginable in a car with an engine.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In the different drive modes (there\u2019s also a high-regen Single Pedal Mode, which effectively lets you modulate throttle and braking with one foot and the throttle pedal alone) the Range Rover Electric can also completely change the relationship between pedal throttle pedal travel and torque supply, re-mapping it off-road to spread the torque over a far greater arc of pedal movement. You also have all that torque on hand the moment you ask for it; no revs to dial up, no gears to juggle.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/073-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Range Rover Electric (2026): rear three quarter off-roading, green paint\" class=\"wp-image-271243\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/073-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/720x0\/073-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/1040x0\/073-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>If this all sounds more than a little nebulous, rest assured it adds up to tangible advantages off-road. JLR\u2019s headline figures are the car\u2019s ability to pull away on a 33-degree slope and climb a 45-degree one if already rolling, but the reality is a car with all the capability you expect of a Range Rover \u2013 miles of travel on its standard-fit air suspension (there\u2019s no active anti-roll control here, just twin-valve dampers and a lower centre of gravity to battle bodyroll) and a 90cm wading depth \u2013 together with ridiculously accessible and flattering off-road performance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the numbers?<\/h2>\n<p>The powertrain\u2019s peak power and torque figures are reassuringly modest: 543bhp and 627lb ft of torque. Those numbers are very deliberately in line with those of the other flagship Range Rover powertrain options, such as the 530bhp P550e petrol plug-in hybrid and the 537hp P540 mild hybrid V8 (though the Range Rover Electric naturally boasts more torque than both), backing up JLR\u2019s assertion that the car\u2019s a Range Rover first and electric second. 0-60mph takes 4.3sec; the 50-75mph overtake surge just 2.7.<\/p>\n<p>Decent numbers, then, if not game changing. Used, perhaps, to being able to gaze down on lesser vehicles in traffic, safe in the knowledge their car is quieter, more comfortable, better off-road and, with some of the available powertrains, able to go further than just about anything else, Range Rover Electric buyers will be paying more money for an EV with less range and power than some all-electric rivals.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/077-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Range Rover Electric (2026): plugged in charging\" class=\"wp-image-271247\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/077-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/720x0\/077-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/1040x0\/077-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>JLR\u2019s adamant they likely won\u2019t care and given the strength it\u2019s built up in Range Rover as a brand, you\u2019re left wondering if they\u2019re likely right. The Range Rover Electric looks right, feels right and wears the right badge, crucially. And a Range Rover that costs a few quid to refuel on your wallbox overnight rather than rinsing your credit card at a petrol station for three figures is not without appeal, even if that means longer stops on road trips. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2018When it comes to range the world is evolving,\u2019 Range Rover managing director Martin Limpert told <em>CAR<\/em> earlier this year. \u2018Range anxiety is real on paper, but the infrastructure and the fast-charging capability are getting there. Diesel is a different thing of course, but if you take the [mild hybrid petrol] V8 the range of the Electric is about the same on our testing cycles. We are not worried about range anxiety. More important is the mix of attributes relevant for our customers. We could have gone for more range, of course, but then you have a heavier battery, sacrificing performance and all-terrain capability and so on.\u2019<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/076-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Range Rover Electric (2026): centre console detail shot, cream leather\" class=\"wp-image-271246\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/480x0\/076-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/720x0\/076-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/271237\/1040x0\/076-range-rover-electric.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As for the buyers, Range Rover insists the Electric will attract a lot of newcomers.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u2018In terms of the split in demand, since we communicated that there will be an electric Range Rover a few years ago, we have collected 80,000 expressions of interest,\u2019 continues Limpert. \u201870% of those are new to the brand. The other 30% are existing customers interested in the advantages electric can confer; the fact that it can make the car they love more refined, quieter, more effortlessness and with real breadth of capability.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And why now?<\/h2>\n<p>Limpert explained: \u2018Four or five years ago we saw different market dynamics depending on the region in the world, and that\u2019s when we decided it was a good time and we brought the MLA architecture to life. It took a little longer than planned, I\u2019m happy to share that, but now we have that flexibility. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018We will build these cars [Range Rovers with a mix of powertrains] on one line, so we can adjust supply to meet demand. This is important: that we follow a desire-based business model; that it\u2019s pull and never push. We are not obliged to push a certain number of electric vehicles into the marketplace. We want to build demand, because we think the Range Rover Electric is a perfect match for a lot of customers\u2019 requirements. But we will supply whatever our customer wants.\u2019<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Can the Range Rover Electric replace the glorious D350 diesel Range Rover in our affections? And more importantly, can it do the same for actual Range Rover customers? Time \u2013 and our first proper drive of the car, on road and off it later this year \u2013 will tell.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<aside class=\"about-author\">\n<h2 class=\"about-author-heading\">About the author<\/h2>\n<div class=\"about-author-inner\">\n<div class=\"main-author-summary-container\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"main-author-image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/author\/ben-miller\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/14259\/120x120\/benmiller.jpeg?quality=90)\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"main-author-name-container\">\n<div class=\"main-author-name\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/author\/ben-miller\/\">Ben Miller<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"main-author-job-title\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"main-author-byline\">As editor, Ben leads CAR magazine and its content strategy.
