Refreshed Range Rover Sport offered as a plug-in hybrid
Jaguar Land Rover has pulled the covers off the new Range Rover Sport, which will be available as a plug-in hybrid for the first time.
The new SUV is the first plug-in hybrid vehicle Jaguar Land Rover has produced, and will be able to travel up to 31 miles on electricity alone.
Power comes from a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine that is combined with an electric motor for a total output of 398bhp and472lb/ ft of torque, allowing for a 0-60mph time of 6.3 seconds and a 137mph top speed.
Its electrified powertrain means the Range Rover Sport P400e boasts a claimed fuel consumption figure of 101mpg on the NEDC combined cycle, and CO2 emissions of 64g/km.
Prices for the Range Rover Sport P400e start at £70,800.
In addition to the plug-in hybrid, the new Range Rover Sport will also be available with a range of four-cylinder, V6 and V8 petrol and diesel engines.
A four-cylinder diesel engine represents the entry-level offering, and will cost from £61,315. Sitting at the top of the refreshed model range is the high-performance, 567bhp Range Rover Sport SVR, which will cost from £99,680.
Range Rover has also equipped the latest Range Rover Sport with its new twoscreen Touch Pro Duo infotainment system that debuted on the Range Rover Velar.
