Nobel-SUV: So wird der Range Rover Sport elektrisch
Nach dem Range Rover schickt Land Rover nun auch den Range Rover Sport als Elektroauto an den Start. Technisch nutzt der kleine Bruder die gleiche Elektro-Architektur – kostet aber weniger.
Land Rover has unveiled its electrified Range Rover Sport, called the Range Rover Sport Electric, set to be sold at a starting price of €120,400. This move follows decades of speculation over the need for a cheaper alternative to the flagship Range Rover. The electric SUV features an 118.5 kWh battery pack, promising a range of 609 kilometers.
With the 800-Volt architecture, charging up to 325 kW, the Range Rover Sport Electric can replenish 220 kilometers in just ten minutes. The top model, EV550, boasts 405 kW/550 PS of power and 850 Nm of torque, making it the most powerful version in Range Rover Sport history. The electric SUV also comes with advanced features like All-Wheel Drive, Quick Steering, and Active Stabilization, enhancing its handling and off-road capabilities.
Despite its lighter weight, the SUV provides a driving experience that belies its bulk. It features a deep chassis, over seven centimeters lower than the previous model, with a stiffer body connected to the battery pack. On rough terrain, drivers can switch to different off-road modes using the intuitive touchscreen interface. The interior is virtually identical to the traditional Range Rover Sport, with only minor design changes to indicate the electric nature of the vehicle. Pricing for the EV450 and EV550 variants start at €120,400 and €140,700 respectively.
