JLR claims Range Rover Sport EV will feature go-anywhere capability and performance comparable to a V8
The upcoming Range Rover Sport EV has been spied on test for the first time. The latest spy shots reveal the luxury e-SUV in all its glory without any camouflage.
- Range Rover Sport EV gets minor styling changes over ICE version
- Global debut later this year
Range Rover Sport EV: exterior, interior design
The changes on the outside look miniscule as compared to the Range Rover Sport ICE, thanks to the new spy shots shared by our friends at motor.es. It gets the same slim LED headlamps with DRLs and the sporty bumper. The grille is slightly different on the EV, however, still looks unfinished. JLR might offer a revised grille on the Range Rover Sport EV in a bid to differentiate it from the ICE version.
The rear-end looks unchanged too, except of course the exhaust outlets are gone. It gets the same sleek-looking wraparound LED tail lights that are connected together with a piece that will house the Range Rover badging. While the interior shots aren’t available with us, we expect it to carry over the ICE Sport’s cabin, except for a few changes here and there.
Range Rover Sport EV: platform, battery, specs
The Range Rover Sport EV will be underpinned by the same MLA platform as the upcoming Range Rover EV, which is also used for the existing combustion models. JLR has continued to remain tight-lipped about the performance figures for its upcoming EVs. However, the brand has claimed that the upcoming Range Rover Sport EV will feature go-anywhere capability and the performance comparable to the V8.
The battery specifications are also still unknown, but we do know that all the models will have 800V charging hardware. This will enable charging speeds of up to 270kW for rapid top-ups.
Range Rover Sport EV: launch timeline, price
The Range Rover Sport EV is expected to be unveiled later this year. It will be the second of six new JLR EVs to arrive in international markets by 2026. The Range Rover Sport EV could be pricier than the ICE version, which is currently priced at Rs 1.40 crore (ex-showroom).
