Range Rover Sport Electric Gets 609km WLTP Range

Range anxiety is unlikely to be the biggest concern for Range Rover Sport Electric buyers, at least on paper. The SUV gets a 118.5kWh battery pack and has an official WLTP range of up to 609km.

Range Rover also quotes an estimated real-world range of around 535km, which provides a more useful indication of what owners may experience away from laboratory testing.

The battery is paired with a dual-motor electric powertrain driving all four wheels. The setup has been developed to deliver not only strong straight-line acceleration but also the precise torque control needed for the Range Rover Sport's off-road capability.

550PS and 850Nm From Dual Electric Motors

550PS and 850Nm From Dual Electric Motors

The Range Rover Sport Electric produces up to 550PS and 850Nm, making it the most torque-rich Range Rover Sport to date, according to the manufacturer.

Its electric motors provide instant torque, while Range Rover has developed a dedicated torque-management system to control power delivery across different surfaces.

The result is a claimed 0-100kmph time of 4.5 seconds. With Dynamic Launch Mode engaged, the SUV can deliver its strongest acceleration from a standstill.

This gives the Sport Electric a different performance character from the existing petrol and diesel models. Instead of relying on rising engine revs and conventional gear changes, the EV can deliver its maximum torque almost immediately.

22-Minute Fast Charging

The Range Rover Sport Electric uses an 800V electrical architecture and supports DC charging at up to 350kW.

Range Rover claims a 10-80 percent charging time of 22 minutes when using a suitable 350kW rapid DC charger. The company also says the SUV can add up to 220km of range in 10 minutes under suitable charging conditions.

This is particularly important for a large luxury SUV because charging speed becomes just as important as battery capacity for long-distance travel.

Actual charging times will depend on factors including charger capability, battery temperature, state of charge and charging conditions.

Range Rover Sport Electric Design

Visually, Range Rover has not attempted to turn the Sport Electric into a completely different SUV. Instead, the EV retains the familiar proportions and muscular design associated with the Range Rover Sport.

There are, however, EV-specific changes.

The front end receives an aero-optimised grille, while the alloy wheels have also been designed with aerodynamic efficiency in mind. Range Rover says these details help distinguish the electric model while supporting its efficiency.

The overall design remains recognisable as a Range Rover Sport, which is important for buyers who want an electric SUV without giving up the model's established visual identity.

New Chassis Technology for the Electric Sport

The biggest changes are underneath the familiar exterior.

Range Rover Sport Electric gets a dedicated chassis tune designed around the characteristics of its electric powertrain. The company has also developed advanced systems to manage the SUV's body control, handling and torque delivery.

The model uses technologies including all-wheel steering, electronic Active Roll Control and adaptive dynamics, helping balance the requirements of high-speed road driving with the off-road ability expected from a Range Rover.

This is important because the Sport Electric isn't being positioned simply as a luxury EV. Range Rover wants it to retain the dynamic and all-terrain character associated with the Sport name.

900mm Water-Wading Capability

900mm Water-Wading Capability

Off-road ability remains a major part of the Range Rover Sport Electric's identity.

Range Rover says the electric SUV has been engineered to maintain its all-terrain capability, including the ability to tackle water crossings. The model can wade through up to 900mm of water, according to the manufacturer.

Electric propulsion also brings a potential advantage for controlled low-speed off-road driving because torque delivery can be managed extremely precisely.

That matters for a vehicle intended to combine luxury-road performance with serious off-road capability.

Range Rover Sport Electric Interior and Technology

The cabin follows the same overall philosophy as the existing Range Rover Sport rather than introducing a radically different EV-specific interior.

The focus remains on a minimalist luxury environment, high-quality materials and a technology-rich dashboard.

The electric version is also designed to preserve the quiet, refined character associated with the Range Rover brand. Electric propulsion should further reduce powertrain noise, although tyre and wind noise will continue to depend on speed, road surface and vehicle configuration.

Range Rover has also developed a dedicated sound experience for the Sport Electric, intended to complement its performance character.

Range Rover Sport Electric Variants

The Range Rover Sport Electric will be available in several specifications internationally, including:

  • Dynamic SE

  • Dynamic HSE

  • Autobiography

  • First Edition

Range Rover has also confirmed that its Bespoke commissioning service will be available for Range Rover Sport Electric Autobiography customers, allowing further personalisation.

Exact specifications and variant availability for India will be confirmed closer to the market launch.

Range Rover Sport Electric India Launch

The Range Rover Sport Electric is expected to reach India in March 2027, according to current India-market information. Autocar India's current model listing also places its expected launch in March 2027.

The SUV was previously previewed at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July 2026, with JLR confirming that the production model would follow later in the year.

The Indian-specification model could differ from the international version in terms of variants, equipment and pricing.

Range Rover Sport Electric Expected Price in India

The Range Rover Sport Electric is expected to sit in the ₹2.40 crore to ₹2.50 crore price bracket in India, according to current Autocar India estimates.

The final ex-showroom price will depend on the variant and equipment offered in India.

For context, the existing combustion-powered Range Rover Sport currently starts considerably lower, although the electric model is expected to command a premium because of its advanced battery, electric drivetrain and positioning in the luxury EV market.

Range Rover Sport Electric Rivals

Once launched, the Range Rover Sport Electric will compete in the high-end electric SUV segment.

Its potential rivals include:

  • Porsche Cayenne Electric

  • BMW iX

  • Other premium electric SUVs from Mercedes-Benz and Audi

The Range Rover's biggest differentiator is likely to be its combination of luxury, performance and genuine off-road capability, rather than outright efficiency alone.

Range Rover Sport Electric vs Range Rover Electric

The Sport Electric shares much of its electric powertrain philosophy with the larger Range Rover Electric, but the two SUVs have different roles.

The Range Rover Electric focuses more strongly on flagship luxury, while the Sport Electric is positioned as the more dynamic model.

The Sport Electric uses a 118.5kWh battery and dual electric motors, with outputs reaching 550PS and 850Nm. The full-size Range Rover Electric also uses a 118.5kWh battery and dual-motor setup with up to 550hp and 850Nm.

The Sport therefore isn't simply a smaller electric Range Rover. Its chassis tuning and positioning are intended to deliver a more engaging driving experience.

What Makes the Range Rover Sport Electric Different?

The biggest selling point of the new SUV isn't simply its 609km range.

It is the combination of:

609km range + 550PS + 850Nm + 350kW charging + 900mm water wading + all-wheel drive.

That combination makes the Sport Electric unusual among luxury EVs.

Many premium electric SUVs prioritise road performance and comfort, while Range Rover is attempting to retain the model's ability to travel beyond paved roads.

Range Rover Sport Electric: What to Expect in India

For Indian buyers, the Range Rover Sport Electric could become one of the most expensive and capable electric SUVs available when it arrives.

Its expected ₹2.40-2.50 crore positioning will place it firmly in the luxury segment, but the vehicle's appeal will extend beyond its performance figures.

The key questions for Indian customers will be the final price, available variants, charging infrastructure support, warranty coverage, equipment levels and the real-world range in Indian driving conditions.

With an expected India launch in March 2027, more India-specific details should emerge closer to its arrival.
