All-New Range Rover ELECTRIC (2025) Begin Testing on the Frozen Lakes. The first Range Rover Electric prototype vehicles are now being subjected to global testing, as they complete cold temperature calibration assessment in the Arctic Circle
First images released of the initial all-black prototypes: its modernist design language stays true to the Range Rover bloodline while an uncamouflaged exterior underlines the build quality of the initial prototypes
Release of first Range Rover Electric vehicles on-road follows year-long component and virtual development process which will is on track to deliver the quietest and most refined Range Rover ever created
Range Rover Electric will lead the way for electric propulsion capability, refinement and luxury travel, with the first vehicle prototypes now deployed at some of the world’s most challenging test locations. The all-electric drivetrain is now being put through its paces at extremes of temperatures, from -40°C in the Arctic Circle, to +50°C in the searing deserts of the Middle East.
In a first for Range Rover, a new traction control system delivers exceptional levels of performance on icy or low-grip surfaces. Rather than a traditional traction control setup based solely in the ABS unit, Range Rover Electric distributes the wheel slip management task directly to each individual electric drive control unit, reducing the torque reaction time at each wheel from around 100 milliseconds, to as little as 1 millisecond.
Innovative software, developed in house by JLR, enables precise EDU speed control for accurate management of wheel slip, reducing the need for ABS intervention. Traction is maximised on all surfaces with exceptional response and composed refinement, significantly enhancing the Range Rover drive experience. This system works in harmony with the stability control and chassis systems to provide an even more overall refined drive.
