Range Rover Electric Unveiled with 600km Range; Bookings Open in India at ₹10 Lakh

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has officially pulled the covers off its highly anticipated first-ever Range Rover Electric. Breaking away from traditional launch timelines, JLR has opened official bookings for the luxury electric SUV in India on the very same day as its global debut, requiring a token amount of ₹10 lakh.

Built at the brand’s historic Solihull plant in the UK, the flagship electric SUV takes on rivals like the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, BMW iX, and Volvo EX90 in the booming luxury EV segment.

Range Rover Electric: Battery, Range & Performance Specs

Underneath its familiar skin, the electric luxury SUV packs heavy-duty EV hardware:

Battery Pack: A massive double-stacked 118.5kWh battery operating on an advanced 800-volt architecture.
Power Output: Twin permanent-magnet electric motors churn out a combined 543bhp to 551bhp and a massive 850Nm of torque, propelling the SUV from 0–100 kph in just 4.5 seconds.
Driving Range: It boasts a claimed WLTP range of up to 600km, with real-world estimates pegged around 535km.
Charging Capabilities: Thanks to its 350kW DC fast-charging compatibility, the battery can charge from 10% to 80% in just 22 minutes, adding roughly 220km of range in a quick 10-minute top-up.

Off-Road Prowess & Engineering

Staying true to the nameplate's DNA, JLR has ensured the EV doesn’t compromise on its legendary all-terrain capabilities:

Water Wading: Retains a class-leading wading depth of up to 900mm.
Smart Traction: A new Integrated Traction Management system reacts to surface changes within 50 milliseconds—managing slip 100 times faster than an ICE vehicle.
Single-Pedal Driving: Features advanced single-pedal driving modes capable of managing slopes of up to 45 degrees.

Design and Interior Features

JLR has intentionally kept the styling nearly identical to its Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) counterpart, featuring an aero-optimized grille and unique alloy wheels, but omitting exhaust pipes and 'Electric' badges.

Inside, the cabin mirrors its fuel-powered sibling with familiar dual-screen setups (13.1-inch infotainment and 13.7-inch digital driver display), alongside an AI-based range predictor and a standard "digital twin" battery health monitor.

Variants and Expected Price in India

Indian buyers can configure and book the Range Rover Electric across multiple trims:

Standard Wheelbase: Autobiography and the exclusive First Edition (available in Belgravia Green, Santorini Black, and Varesine Blue).
Long Wheelbase (LWB): SV, SV Ultra, and SV Black variants.

Coming in as a Completely Built Unit (CBU) import from the UK, the Range Rover Electric is expected to command an ex-showroom price starting around ₹3.50 crore
