Land Rover has revealed key specifications of its upcoming Range Rover Electric SUV, including details about its battery and powertrain. The electric SUV has been spotted testing sans camouflage in Sweden.
Battery and Powertrain
The Range Rover Electric will feature a massive 117 kWh battery pack, one of the largest ever offered in a production EV. The battery employs cell-to-pack construction with 344 prismatic cells arranged in a two-tier layout. The SUV will also come with an 800-volt electric architecture, enabling charging at up to 350 kW. The dual-motor setup, with one motor on each axle, is expected to deliver close to 550 bhp and 851 Nm of torque.
Advanced Thermal Management
The Range Rover Electric will feature the company’s latest ThermAssist technology, an onboard thermal management system. This technology reduces heating energy consumption by up to 40%, with recovered heat used to warm the cabin or propulsion system. It also helps maintain optimal battery temperature, preserving range and charging capability.
Additional Features
Other notable features of the Range Rover Electric include single-pedal driving capability and switchable, twin-chamber air suspension. The EV also boasts a refined traction control system that has reduced torque reaction time at each wheel from 100 milliseconds to 1 millisecond, minimizing the need for ABS intervention.
As Land Rover continues to develop its electric vehicle lineup, the Range Rover Electric is set to be a significant player in the luxury EV market. With its advanced technology and impressive specifications, it promises to deliver both performance and efficiency.
