Range Rover Electric Launched in India with up to 600km Range

Range Rover has opened orders in India for its first-ever fully electric SUV, marking a major new chapter for the luxury brand. Built at JLR’s Solihull facility in the UK, the Range Rover Electric promises to retain the refinement, luxury and all-terrain capability the nameplate is known for.

Powertrain and performance

The Range Rover Electric uses a twin-motor setup and an 800V electrical architecture, delivering strong performance along with long-distance capability.

  • Motors: Two permanent magnet electric motors
  • Power: Up to 543hp
  • Torque: 850Nm
  • Battery: 118.5kWh lithium-ion battery
  • Claimed range: Up to 600km (WLTP)
  • Claimed real-world range: Up to 535km
  • 0-100 km/h: 4.5 seconds
  • 10-80% DC charging: Around 22 minutes
  • Range added in 10 minutes: Up to 220km

Electric, but still a Range Rover

Range Rover says electrification has not compromised the SUV’s off-road credentials. Its new traction management system responds to changing conditions in as little as 50 milliseconds, helping improve control on different surfaces.

The SUV also gets single-pedal driving, twin-chamber air suspension and a lower centre of gravity. It retains an impressive 900mm water-wading capability.

Interior and technology

The Range Rover Electric focuses heavily on refinement and convenience, with electric power expected to make the already quiet cabin even more serene.

Key features include:

  • Near-silent electric driving experience
  • Range Rover App with charging status and predicted range
  • Remote cabin purification
  • Remote heated steering wheel activation
  • Live vehicle location
  • Battery Digital Twin with over 900 diagnostic data points
  • Software-over-the-air updates

A special First Edition will also be offered with a Light Cloud Ultrafabrics PU and Kvadrat interior.

Final take

The Range Rover Electric doesn’t attempt to reinvent the iconic SUV. Instead, it uses electric power to enhance the qualities that already define a Range Rover: silence, effortless performance and comfort.

With 850Nm of torque, up to 600km of claimed range, and serious off-road capability, the electric Range Rover makes a strong case for luxury SUVs entering the EV era without losing their identity.
