2022 Land Rover Range Rover

The new 5th generation Range Rover has been revealed with a fresh look, new tech and plethora of engine choices. As only the 5th all new Range Rover in 50 years, Land Rover are often careful to not upset the apple cart, as this represents the lynchpin in their portfolio. To that end, the styling often is the make or break, and they seem to have done a fine job. The rear end is simple and elegant with the slim tail lights looking like part of the trim until they turn on and reveal their purpose. The side profile is commanding and features a sloping roof line, and overall the look is non-offensive and should appeal to the target market. Although the lower section of the front facia does let it down a bit for me, almost like it has braces on.

The engines are headlined by a BMW sourced 4.4L twin turbocharged V8 which replaces the ageing supercharged 5.0L V8 Jaguar Land Rover have been using for seemingly decades. The other engines are mostly hybrid based with some being mild hybrids and others plug-in hybrids for petrol and diesel. On the petrol side of things there will be three mild hybrids (P300, P360 and P400) and two plug-in hybrids (P440e and P510e). For diesels there will be three mild hybrids (D250, D300 and D350), along with three non-hybrid options. After all that Land Rover are also planning a fully electric Range Rover for 2024.
