Range Rover P550e

The P550e is the Range Rover for owners whose daily driving is short but whose longer trips are not. Range Rover says that for 75 percent of its customers the average daily journey is 94 km or less, a figure calculated from data on more than 143,000 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles across 12 markets between June 2023 and June 2024. The P550e and the lower-output P460e are the plug-in hybrids, sold on the UK site alongside petrol, diesel and battery-electric versions.

Powertrain

The engine is a 3.0 litre six-cylinder Ingenium petrol, combined with a 160 kW electric motor. In the P550e the system makes up to 550 HP and 800 Nm of torque.

Electric range and charging

The electric range is up to 74 miles (119 km), with an estimated real-world figure of 56 miles (90 km). A 50 kW rapid DC charger takes the battery from empty to 80 percent in under an hour, from 40 minutes. At home, a 7 kW AC charger fills it from 0 to 100 percent in from five hours. Range Rover adds that range depends on the condition of the battery, the route, the environment and driving style.

Chassis and equipment

The chassis uses All-Wheel Steering, Dynamic Response Pro, Adaptive Dynamics, Electronic Air Suspension and Terrain Response 2. Adaptive Dynamics watches body and steering movements up to 500 times a second. All-Wheel Steering gives a turning circle of 10.95 m on the standard wheelbase and 11.54 m on the long wheelbase. Inside are Four-zone Climate Control, Cabin Air Purification Pro with PM2.5 filtration, Active Noise Cancellation delivered through headrest speakers, and a 12 inch Interactive Driver Display. A 3D Surround Camera and ClearSight Ground View show the path beneath the wheels, and an optional head-up display is available. The Remote app can locate, check and control the car from a compatible smartphone.
