Embracing the essence of modern luxury electrification, this maiden electric vehicle promises an unparalleled fusion of British design, cutting-edge technology, and awe-inspiring performance.
Scheduled production dates are drawing near as the initial fleet undergoes rigorous testing globally, showcasing the electric powerhouse’s capabilities in diverse terrains and extreme temperatures. Traversing from the icy landscapes of Sweden to the scorching heat of Dubai, the all-terrain proficiency seamlessly reflects the legacy established since the birth of Range Rover in 1970.
Engineering Excellence: Crafting the Quietest and Most Advanced Range Rover
Engineers are working diligently to create the quietest and most refined Range Rover ever. They are using active road noise cancellation and superior sound design. What’s more, they aim to match the performance of the flagship Range Rover V8, upholding the brand’s tradition of excellence in both on-road and off-road capabilities.
This effort is supported by a thorough Virtual Development phase, which includes front-end resilience and advanced multi-body systems analysis. As a result of these efforts, the first physical prototypes have now been unveiled.
These vehicles are being built in the United Kingdom on the Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) in Solihull. This represents a significant milestone in the brand’s commitment to innovation.
Additionally, there is a pioneering shift happening at JLR’s Electric Propulsion Manufacturing Center in Wolverhampton, UK, where batteries and Electric Drive Units (EDUs) will be produced. This strategic move aligns with Range Rover’s ambitious goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2039, propelling the brand into an electrified future.
Don’t miss your opportunity to secure a spot on the exclusive waiting list. Range Rover Electric is gearing up to redefine luxury, performance, and technology on the road. Expect something extraordinary – the future of driving is electric, and it all starts with Range Rover.
