Range-Rover-Brochure

The P400e delivers an exceptionally refined experience. The electric motor can produce its maximum torque from standstill and delivers a virtually silent drive. If engine torque is required, the system uses the Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) for virtually instant starting, enabling engine torque to be perfectly blended with electric motor torque, smoothly delivering the driver‘s demand using the hybrid integrated transmission. Off-road capabilities are uncompromised and in some circumstances enhanced. Unlike any other plug-in hybrid vehicle, P400e matches the 900mm wading depth 2 of Range Rover fitted with a conventional engine, and the additional torque provided by the electric motor at low speed is an advantage in a variety of off-road situations. The combination of the instant torque from the electric motor with that from the highly efficient direct injection petrol engine delivers a torque profile normally associated with large capacity petrol or diesel engines, providing performance that takes it from 0-100km/h in 6.8 seconds with a top speed of 220km/h. For extra convenience, the vehicle can be defrosted whilst charging and journeys can begin with the cabin pre-conditioned to a comfortable temperature. The supplementary heater and air conditioning compressor – both powered by the high voltage battery – will pre-cool or pre-warm the vehicle without the requirement to start the engine when charging, or from the battery alone if sufficient charge is available.
