Hybrid Land Rover range: current models

There are currently 6 hybrid models in Land Rover's lineup.

Land Rover Defender 110

The Land Rover Defender has awesome off-road abilities, even as a plug-in hybrid. It has a 104PS (103hp) electric motor and a 300PS (296hp) four-cylinder petrol engine. Officially, it can travel up to 32 miles on 100% electric power. We loved the Land Rover Defender and gave it a 9/10 in our review.

Land Rover Discovery Sport

The Land Rover Discovery Sport plug-in hybrid (with petrol engine) has an official electric only range of up to 37.3 miles and CO2 emissions of 35 g/km. When we tested it, the plus points were for its spacious, luxurious cabin, comfortable cruising manners and a decent electric range; however the negatives were that the petrol engine can be thirsty, it can’t have the option of seven seats because of space taken by the battery, and it’s handling wasn’t as sharp as some alternatives. It received a score of 7/10.

If you can’t conveniently plug-in for charging at home, then there’s also a choice of two diesel mild hybrids in the Discovery Sport range, one with 204hp and the other with 163hp. 

Range Rover

The Range Rover is a big and heavy car, so it is impressive that the plug-in hybrid version has an electric range of up to 74 miles and CO2 emissions from just 16g/km. It has a 3.0-litre six-cylinder petrol engine with a 160kW motor.

Range Rover Evoque

The Range Rover Evoque plug-in hybrid (PHEV) has an official range on 100% electric power of 38 miles and CO2 emissions from 33g/km. It has an 80 kW electric motor. The Evoque got a score of 8/10 in our review which noted the plug-in hybrid was the most economical.

There are also petrol mild hybrid and diesel mild hybrid Evoques available. These don’t require plugging-in and use their battery to support the performance of the engine to help it use less fuel.

Range Rover Sport

There’s a choice of hybrid models for the Range Rover Sport; the mild hybrid charges itself (so never has to be plugged-in) supplements the engine so it doesn’t have to use quite as much fuel.

The plug-in (PHEV) Range Rover Sport achieves a range on electric of up to 74 miles.

Range Rover Velar

There are two mild hybrid Range Rover Velars, plus a plug-in full hybrid (PHEV). The first mild hybrid has a 300hp diesel engine and the second has a 4.4-litre petrol V8 engine with 635hp and does 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds. 

The PHEV version has a 160kW motor and 3.0-litre, six cylinder engine with an impressive electric-only range of up to 74 miles and CO2 emissions of just 17g/km. It’s also fast, with a 0-60mph time of 5.3 seconds.
