The new Range Rover Evoque is now available with Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) technology, delivering the performance, refinement and capability customers expect together with an electric-only range of up to 55km (34 miles) and CO2 emissions as low as 44g/km.
Badged P300e, the Evoque plug-in hybrid is based on Land Rover's state-of-the-art Premium Transverse architecture, which was designed to support electrification while maintaining signature off-road capability. The new plug-in hybrid P300e model joins the existing 48-volt mild-hybrid in the range, bringing new levels of efficiency to the premium compact SUV sector.
The Evoque P300e offers sustainable performance by combining a 200PS (147kW) 1.5-litre three-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine with a 109PS (80kW) electric motor integrated into the rear axle and powered by a 15kWh lithium-ion battery located below the rear seats. Performance and capability are uncompromised, with acceleration of 0-100km/h in just 6.4 seconds (0-60mph in 6.1 seconds).
Efficiency is remarkable: the Range Rover Evoque P300e emits just 44g/km of CO2 and has an all-electric, zero tailpipe emission range of up to 55km (34 miles), with fuel economy of 2.0l/100km (141mpg).
PLUG-IN HYBRID TECHNOLOGY
The new Range Rover Evoque P300e uses Land Rover's Premium Transverse Architecture, which was designed from the outset to accommodate plug-in and mild-hybrid technologies. The hardware is cleverly packaged beneath the cabin floor without compromising interior space.
The Electric Rear Axle Drive (ERAD) is powered by a compact 15kWh lithium-ion battery located below the rear seats. The battery is made up of 84 prismatic cells, arranged in seven 50Ah modules of 12, with a 6mm-thick steel undertray that protects the battery without compromising the hallmark all-terrain capability.
PLUG-IN HYBRID CHARGING
The new PHEV model is available with a Mode 2 Home Charging Cable, enabling customers to fully charge the vehicle from a plug socket in 6hrs 42mins - perfect for overnight charging. For faster charging, the Mode 3 Charging Cable enables customers to plug-in to a 7kW AC domestic wall box or AC public charge points: this enables charging from 0-80 per cent in just 1hr 24mins. The quickest charge times are achieved using the growing public charging network of DC charge points: at 32kW DC, 0-80 per cent takes just 30 minutes.
