New Range Rover P440E Hybrid Autobiography- Best of both worlds?
Not only is the Fifth Generation Range Rover a more than capable off roader, but it is also an ultra-comfortable limousine for cruising around the town. This top of the range Autobiography model is a Plug in Hybrid (PHEV). It has a powerful engine from the Ingenium family of engines, the 3 Litre, 6-cylinder, turbo charged petrol engine is coupled with an electric motor generating a total of 440PS and 620NM of toque. This makes this Range Rover one of the most powerful performance SUV available. Full electric mode allows this model to operate, near silent, for an official range of 70 miles. For those drivers looking towards the future, the all-new Fully Electric Range Rover is due for release in 2024.
The Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season LR
For as long as we can all remember, Pirelli tyres have been fitted to Land Rovers and Range Rovers. JLR and Pirelli began their close working relationship in the 1970s when Pirelli created the Cinturato P5 for Jaguar. For the Range Rover, the car manufacturer set Pirelli engineers the task to achieve the lowest emissions possible while maintaining the cars off road ability. This new Pirelli Scorpion Zero is the most impressive tyre they have developed for this application so far. The tyre also carries the "LR" marking, meaning it has been specifically developed for use on JLR vehicles. With class leading rolling resistance to help fuel emissions, the Scorpion Zero All Season also maintains its off-road abilities. The tyre was created specifically for Ultra High Performance (UHP), for use on the worlds best SUV and 4×4 vehicles. The Pirelli was tested on the toughest roads in the UK, Italy, Germany, Sweden, and Spain. The tyres also passed the all-important "Hill Test" where the car is driven up a hill at constant speed, but then also across it to test the lateral grip in wet grassy conditions. These developments help give these tyres not only the best rolling resistance in class but also the world-class off-road ability expected from a Range Rover.
