SUVs like the Range Rover Sport are designed to offer refined luxury, off-roading capability, and a fun drive around Florham Park and Franklin Lakes. Adding a hybrid powertrain will reduce your emissions and help cut back on trips to the gas pump.
To show drivers in Parsippany, Mendham, and Morristown, NJ, what this stylish SUV can do as a hybrid, the team at Land Rover Parsippany put together this Range Rover Sport Plug-in Hybrid review.
Range Rover Sport Plug-in Hybrid Powertrain
As a Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), the Range Rover Sport Plug-in Hybrid runs on a powerful engine and an efficient electric motor. This dynamic duo enables it to offer lots of power and excellent fuel economy.
Under the hood, you'll find a 2.0L 4-cylinder gas-powered engine. It switches off with a 105-kilowatt electric motor, so you'll enjoy a convenient driving range before you'll need to recharge or refuel. This combination can also get up to 398 horsepower.
You'll also be able to switch over to 100 percent electric driving with EV mode. With a 13-kilowatt battery, an onboard charger, and regenerative braking, it has an all-electric driving range of 19 miles, too.
Range Rover Sport Plug-in Hybrid Versatility
The Range Rover Sport PHEV is designed for both difficult driving conditions and a smooth, relaxing drive. Its hybrid powertrain delivers a quiet ride, while the standard All Wheel Drive system lets you tackle all kinds of terrain.
Intelligent All Wheel Drive comes standard, plus it runs on a rugged suspension. You can attack steep trails and drive through up to 33.5 inches of water. While the Ingenium engine offers lots of torque, the electric motor also provides some extra torque when you're traveling at slow speeds.
Not only does this combination help you manage slick roads and muddy trails, but it can also help you hit the highway when you're in a hurry. The Range Rover Sport PHEV can go from 0 to 60 MPH in only 5.9 seconds.
Range Rover Sport Plug-in Hybrid Intelligent & Efficient Technology
While the Range Rover Sport PHEV features some of the latest technology under the hood, you'll also find some cutting-edge tech on the dashboard, too. The Touch Pro™ Duo system includes a pair of 10-inch touchscreens for your infotainment system. Once you sync your smartphone to it, you'll be able to stream music, make hands-free calls, and use your apps with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.
A navigation system is available to give you turn-by-turn directions. It can also determine the most efficient route and show you where to find charging stations along the way. To see your route, just look to the top screen or check out the 12.3-inch Interactive Driver Display. This digital instrument cluster can show the location of your next turn and how efficiently you're driving.
