Only a bit slower than an EV6... Which costs less than half as much, despite being full electric. A hell of a lot more reliable too. You'd need your head looking at to buy one of these.
The price difference is far more extreme in Ireland. The P400 starts at 213,000 euro, whilst the P440e starts at 138,000. This also applies to cars like the BMW X5 and Porsche Cayenne.
In Finland ICE powertrains are dying in the big/expensive car segment, as plug-in hybrids with far more power and very low emission figures actually cost less than normal diesel or petrol variants. The new BMW 750e costs about €25k less than a 3.0 diesel S-Class...
Reading in uk car magazine a range rover sport Hybrid owner was quoted £20.000 for a new battery, he had to send the battery to Spain or Portugal to get it fix and it still cost around £6000.
PHEVS only exist because of legislation, it only makes sense if you keep charging the battery otherwise it is just dead weight and deteriorates massively your MPG hence buying a petrol only version is not that a bad idea for many people
Untrue. Even if you never plug it in at all you still get a substantial benefit from energy recovery under braking, and the ability to do slow stop-start rush hour condition without burning a lot of fuel at the most wasteful crawling speed for internal combustion. Just like a normal non plug-in hybrid
Phevs exist because until relatively recently it was mega expensive to pack enough batteries into a car to get an acceptable range and it was reasonably easy to convert an existing model to phev without rebuilding your cars from the ground up to support full ev. These days though they only really still get made to satisfy eu emissions regulations and get company car tax reductions for ice cars still on sale.
@@harryspeakup8452 Thats just wrong. I used to own a Range Rover P400e PHEV and the energy recovery under braking was minimal, certainly not enough to increase the battery range by a single mile. And the other problem was that, just like the new Sport P510e PHEV reviewed in this video, there is no capability for the engine to charge the battery. Basically in both cars, once the battery runs out they just become a car 400kg heavier than the equivalent petrol/diesel version with a smaller fuel tank so not only do they consume more fuel but the range is reduced even further because of the smaller tank. I have just replaced my P400e with a new Sport D300 and that is achieving 35-37mpg on fast motorway runs and is averaging 33mpg overall (compared to 27.9mpg for the P510e in this test). And apart from that it handles and rides better than the PHEV (I test drove both the P440e and D300 before I made my decision) because of its lower weight and has space for a spare wheel. No contest overall
The whole point of a plug-in hybrid is to be able to take short journeys on electric alone, and then use the engine for the occasional long journey. What is the point if you can even go over 30 miles an hour without the engine kicking in? It’s almost like range Rover aren’t taking this seriously…🙄
On the new Lexus RX 450h+ you can launch that car in full EV mode without the ICE kicking in. Perhaps JLR should go and borrow the technology from Lexus
I transport these from the factory to the docks. Some of the hybrid sports weigh up to 2.9T; depending on interior spec. Which incidentally is more than some of the LWB 460s.
As someone who works for JLR in the states I can say with some certainty that the biggest reason people are getting the P400 is the factory simply has not gotten any of these PHEV’s to us yet. Tons of interest but clients switching orders to P400 because they have no build date yet.
in germany, electric cars have an "e" on their license plate. I once saw a jeep in front of me, i could see the exhaust gases and steam comming out, and then i saw the "e" on the license plate, i couldnt stop laughning because they label a plug in hybrid as an electric car
it looks much better in person - id dint like ti originally too. I think the colour definitely plays a factor - the red launch colour with black wheels looks excellent
@@all-caps3927 yes I think every range rover looks great and I agree with you on the colour, I think I've only seen one new sport in person and couldn't get a good view so I couldn't really look at it but im sure is nicer in person 👍
I have a discovery sport p300e hybrid which occurs on some hybrids where some start the ICE when it reaches 15mph. They’re looking into a solution at the moment but annoying that all my journeys are petrol at the moment when I’d just got used to the peace and quiet of electric .
I also have a Disco Sport P300e, got it in March, it does not have this issue you describe. Drive it to work in hybrid mode and it uses EV all the way.
You might wish to update this… they’ve adjusted the official WLTP EV range to 69 miles, meaning it’s no longer 2% BIK , it’s now 5%… oh and has a £4500 price increase.
I have a discovery sport hybrid (which I love), that has exactly the same issue as when Mat tried to launch it in electric mode. You will find its an EV heater issue, I used to run my hybrid in pure EV mode and got fantastic mileage for the 15 or so miles I usually do a day. A the start of winter wouldn't stay in EV mode and my mileage is now 35mpg! Must be a known issue when I took it to LR they diagnosed it immediately, sadly the EV heaters are on back order and 8 weeks later I'm still waiting for mine.....
Mat, we’re finding the same with our Evoque - it won’t drive in just EV without the engine kicking in even though the dealer said it should! If anyone has any tips, that’d be great as we should be able to use it 90% of the time in EV only like we intended to!
USUALLY most manufacturers kick in the electric motor after about 30ish mph regardless if you've set it to EV only, since they don't TYPICALLY design it for much higher speeds. Couldn't tell you why, maybe efficiency of the motor dips down and designing around it would cost too much?
It might be worth getting an oil change and reset the oil counter. Have experienced on some Evoque PHEV's, the oil dilution will prevent correct operation of EV. There has also been a change in oil spec. This is only if your vehicle starts in EV, gets up to 12-15ish MPH and then ICE kicks in. Other issues are with the HV coolant heater, they can lock themselves out, car will start in EV but as soon as you pull away it will kick in ICE.
Surely the EV mode is designed for use when pottering trough a town, hence the problem staying in EV only mode. It is large, heavy car with a powerful IC motor. It's doing what it is designed to do.
@@badlarry172 Yes, I drive a Disco Sport p300e. The save mode will still give you hybrid drive at low speeds but does preserve battery very well. At higher speeds, let’s say 40+, i.e. dual carriage way and motorway driving, I have regularly taken the battery from 10% or less to 80% in approx 50 to 60 miles of driving. I have a regular trip of approx 110 miles mostly motorway, I start on a full charge and do the first ~25 miles on battery, then switch to ICE in Save mode for the next ~50/60, which gets you to the max 80% recovery, then finish the journey on the recovered charge. The loss in ICE running mpg while in save mode is marginal at higher speeds, which makes the overall trip very efficient. Works for me.
@@solefreak2 While it's very disappointing how quite expensive cars can be less reliable than a Toyota after the warranty expires (ahem, BMW), I guess the sort of person who can afford them can just take a loss on a trade in later, rather than worry about expensive repairs.
Your not wrong,they’ll be a nightmare when things go wrong and like you say once the warranty is up repairs will be horrendous,my daughter has a Velar, small service £580-00 for basically an oil change, no way am I ever buying one of those, if I want to burn money I’ll leave my central heating on it’ll be cheaper just about.
So glad I discovered Car wow! It’s like a good version of a modern top gear. I really am craving longer format though! Mat’s Brummy accent is probably the only brummy accent I can bare listening too 😂
The reason the PHEV isn’t much more expensive is because anyone with their head screwed on wouldn’t chose an already big, complicated, fault-prone car but with x2 drive trains, x2 the chance to go wrong. Wouldn’t touch a PHEV personally, sticking with diesel/petrol or (maybe in the future) a pure EV.
Hey Mat and Team i think the camera was a little grainy ...am saying this because no one said it but all in all great video all the love from South Africa
are plug-in hybrids really so economical and earth friendly when those batteries adding so much weight and car is about 1/3 heavier which means it needs much more fuel? I think it's a dead end
Hybrids are trash.they are never as efficient as they claim to be. In daily driving the EV garbage in this cars becomes dead weight, but still needs lots of resources to produce and dispose. The government shoould rather tax support light and efficient cars instead of those hybrid tanks.
it’s not that much faster. the SVR only has about 50more horsepower than this but is not backed up by the instant torque provided by the electric motors that this has. so in most everyday cases (setting off from traffic lights, 0-30/45 runs) this would most probably be faster than an SVR
@@HandHaben I would also argue that despite the remarkable progress these fast SUVs have made, they just aren't meant for tracks or quick driving. The top end models just seem like a money grab when you can get fast enough models for a lot less (in the same model line).
@@HandHaben New svr will comes with bmw V8. Its more powerful than i6. Not 50 more hp it has 90more horse power and huge torque (750Nm) [in Big Range Rover] it will be more efficient in sport model
so that mpg deduct further for spending money and polluting when charging. Its strange when people say oh my hybrid does over 60mpg and then doesnt add 30% of the costs for charging the car. So when you combine all costs it's much more expensive than diesel
Had one of these for 6 months just trading it back 4 weeks ago. Great motor. In 6 mths never put petrol in it once, and therefore when trading it showed 184mpg. Definately the pick of the bunch.
Plenty of people do plug them in, but for the type of owner who would buy a 2.7 ton range rover, no, they don't give a damn about the environment and will just use the ICE.

Matt, compare this with a Mercedes GLE hybrid…you can use the electric battery on its own for up to 60 miles, it recharges on the go and is plug in too…more reliable and lower cost to buy and currently getting 50mpg….I know because I’ve got one!
Not allowing a 0-60 in EV mode only is such a great safety feature. I almost crashed while overtaking last summer in a Peugeot 508 hybrid because it was in EV mode when I floored the accelerator. In hybrid mode the overtake would have been totally safe
Not true at all. I can easily accelerate to the highway on pure ev mode on my a3 e-tron almost 100/100 times. However if you suddenly plant your foot ICE will kick in. The issues for you were 1. You did not know the power of your car in ev mode well enough, and do your moves based on that and 2. You drove a peugeot which apparently doesn't work that well 😂
@@Jonsk111 well how can you answer to my comment regarding a Peugeot car from driving an Audi? Your first point is also wrong as I do know the ev mode's power limitations but as with many close-call situations, this happened too because of human error on my part; I didn't realise I was in ev mode and not in hybrid, because there is no differentiation between the two modes in the gauge cluster, apart from a tiny text that. I wouldn't put a crying from laughter -emoji as a response for someone who's just sharing his own experience about one particular car.
I love Range Rovers and Land Rovers I think the best make in the world they can be reliable as long as you maintain your car and service it like other cars but people don't. There is nothing as good as a Land Rover
Mat, generally electric cars are better at wading through water as it is all waterproofed. The first generation Nissan leaf can Wade 700mm of water. Compare that to an ICE hatchback and nothing even comes close to how good it at going through water.

How can they say that it does 70 miles on electric alone, when you can't accelerate at a normal rate without the engine kicking in?
I had the same question. From the review I got the impression it never ever actually wants to drive in EV mode.
Accelerate at normal rate isn’t equal to launch control lol
That’s out my price range😂😂
Matt, compare this with a Mercedes GLE hybrid…you can use the electric battery on its own for up to 60 miles, it recharges on the go and is plug in too…more reliable and lower cost to buy and currently getting 50mpg….I know because I’ve got one!
Mercedes Gle is not more reliable than a RR
Looks better in this colour.
Nicer looking than X5 or GLE for sure.
Why would this have a lower towing capacity than the normal version?
Mat, people that buy P400 are people who actually know range rovers and know that stuff will break. The less the better.
Tbf P400 will be the most reliable but I think the P510e will be more reliable than the P530 which has the 4.4 BMW V8.
Those people don;t buy LR products at all
@@ben3291why ?
I am owner of Evoque P300e. It can charge the battery in SAVE mode and whilst coasting
Prefer the regular Range Rover, but a great machine nonetheless!
I know it has nothing to do with the video, but does anybody know what black jacket that is Mat is wearing?
When you floor it it sounds exactly like the GR Yaris 😂
No doubt range rover is best looking suv and best buy in the segment
I think it's the best luxury SUV, who agrees with me?
That image quality at dusk is really something XD, someone used his 2000s old Nokia I see
Not allowing a 0-60 in EV mode only is such a great safety feature. I almost crashed while overtaking last summer in a Peugeot 508 hybrid because it was in EV mode when I floored the accelerator. In hybrid mode the overtake would have been totally safe
Not true at all. I can easily accelerate to the highway on pure ev mode on my a3 e-tron almost 100/100 times. However if you suddenly plant your foot ICE will kick in. The issues for you were 1. You did not know the power of your car in ev mode well enough, and do your moves based on that and 2. You drove a peugeot which apparently doesn't work that well 😂
I trust you have put your free driving license back in the cereal box and sent it back now then?
@@Jonsk111 well how can you answer to my comment regarding a Peugeot car from driving an Audi? Your first point is also wrong as I do know the ev mode's power limitations but as with many close-call situations, this happened too because of human error on my part; I didn't realise I was in ev mode and not in hybrid, because there is no differentiation between the two modes in the gauge cluster, apart from a tiny text that. I wouldn't put a crying from laughter -emoji as a response for someone who's just sharing his own experience about one particular car.
@@Birdienvideolaari yeah I get that but you called the biggest issue in this video a great feature
You should select save after you change to EV Matt
The Rolls-Royce cullinan is a great competitor for this car they both have Insane amounts of luxury features and the range is definitely a buy
would rather have the rolls tbh
For the sport? Nah vouge maybe
Rolls Royce Cullinan starts from 264,000 so for the same price you can get a Range Rover a Range Rover sport and an Range Rover Velar 😂
The Range Rover SV would be the closest to the Cullinan in terms of competition
Check engine light is already on 😅
4:30
I like your reviews 👏👌
I love the colour, please can you confirm what it is.
Nice car, looks fantastic... tough if I would be in the market for a car like this, I would go for an BMW X5 50e.
gle is better it can drive more electric
Matt how much would you rate the car out of 10 I kinda wanna buy it
Hey Baw,
I bought this car in the P360 non-hybrid and I rate it a 10/10. I have a review on my channel if you want more of an owner's perspective.
@@SGVirtusAuthor thank you so much I am gonna go watch it now
It's definitely a gangsta car!
HELLO TO EVERYONE FROM TAJIKISTAN 🇹🇯🇹🇯🙂
I love Range Rovers and Land Rovers I think the best make in the world they can be reliable as long as you maintain your car and service it like other cars but people don't. There is nothing as good as a Land Rover
ayyyyy lmaoo
5:55 you didn’t yet that cargo area cover. 🤦♂️.
No weeing in the house
Mat, generally electric cars are better at wading through water as it is all waterproofed.
The first generation Nissan leaf can Wade 700mm of water. Compare that to an ICE hatchback and nothing even comes close to how good it at going through water.
Aslong as it sounds like the V8 we are good.. If not!!! 😬
can you do another video about 2023 range rover velar? plzzzz.
This range rover is insane❤
I booked range rover sport but waiting period is so high
What a beast from India 💪 🇮🇳
it's definitely not from India
Land rover has been bought by an indian company.
@@v.s.727 so what. VW bought Lamborghini and Bugatti, that still doesn’t make them German or a Volkswagen
@@rekaarnes I don't know where the Hang over has been developed. But on the Bugattis and Lambos you can see the german influence.
@@v.s.727 and still they aren’t German cars. Not even the Urus, which is basically an Audi Q8.
If you completely run out of fuel, will it then give you the option maximise the potential of the electric motor
in their defence i feel like 28mpg for a big heavy range rover is impressive mileage compared to petrol
4:30, check engine light on already?😂😂
When my senile grandpa refuels, he accidentally pours fuel into the charging port and almost catches fire
What's the reliability like on the new range rover sport and Vogue??
The engine light is on already 😂😂😂😂😂😍
Was this filmed on an iphone?? What are those night shots?
what dou you think about 4 wheel steering ? ? ? is it realy necessary and helpful for roadholding ? ? ?
It wouldn’t be necessary but its definitely very helpful, if you live in an area where you’d want a small turning circle then it’s necessary.
