It's a beautiful car and fantastic design. People keep talking about how much it is worth later. Or reliability. HAVE YOU EVER CALLED Range Rover when something goes wrong? They are amazing. If you are looking for 30-year reliability and a good Bang for your buck, Range Rover is not your class. Look at Honda or something. People who buy this don’t worry about depreciation. They want a fantastic ride and comfort. Again, it is for the rich, not the poor
I just picked up one of these a couple of weeks ago. Plenty of EV range for daily driving and gas engine for longer trips. Incredibly quite and refined ride with the air suspension. I have owned a lot of nice vehicles and this by far the nicest. I have had multiple EV's as well and the PHEV may be the best of both worlds.
Just make sure you get rid of it before warranty expires. Otherwise, you'll be dealers best friend, they'll treat you with donuts 🍩 every week you visit them. .
@@tonyn3227 Maybe, maybe not. I know plenty of very satisfied RR owners that repeatedly buy new RR models. Must be something to them IDK, this is my first one.
@@lorins8687 I think it drives fantastic. Other then one long trip out of town my daily driving is all electric. Very happy with my decision to purchase.
Great review, but just a very mild criticism, I would have liked to have seen the backseats folded down to see how flat the back area becomes and how much space opens up, but other than that, awesome!
If you have to pick between this model and the Cadillac Escalade. Which one would you pick? I find both to be really nice and I’m wondering which one would be better for long trips. Looking at super cruise and range rover’s self driving which not a lot of people are talking about
@@RaitisRides Thanks!!! can’t wait to see the new reviews coming out!! and hopefully when my Skyline comes we can workout a video of my modded GTT replica GTR I got huge plans for it
I don't understand why I'd choose this over the Range Rover Sport? They both have only 2 rows. The 3 row range Rover doesn't have the plugin hybrid option and that's the version that would arguably need it the most...
50 miles on electric isn't bad. I like the gas back up. But I wouldnt be at gas station very often in this one. As others have said best of both worlds. Hopefully people won't have to pay over 100k or whatever to get that sort of range in a phev. But the charging technology and range will get better. Maybe solar energy could be integrated. It's still just a baby.
Range Rover super charged plastic coolant lines engine is out and this is the new BMW twin turbo engine. When you are rich enough to afford a BMW X6 or X7. You really do not care of the reliability of a BMW engine inside a Range Rover.
I agree wholeheartedly, I think that car brands should do more of making some cars like the range rover se, the kia carnival, but leave cars like the challenger, charger, camaro, shelby alone. I hate that the american car brands are doing this. I really hope they bring these big bad american beast back. I also hate that nissan killed the maxima, and nissan is planning to kill the altima. And kia wants to replace the kia forte with the kia K4. It just really breaks my heart I really hope that they can sympathize with me on this one. I Also hope, that the prices on these cars go down to.
@@RaitisRides I was doing extensive searching/researching on XC90’s as my next family vehicle, the two tone steering wheel straight out of the Volvo, lots of that same wood Volvo uses in a similar way and Volvo also has a couple of the same rectangular adjust switches. Just my opinion though.
@@kromahj Yes. I think they don’t know how much it will be worth. They just get the car. Most people who buy this car don’t have tens of millions. They’re upper middle class. Maybe the elite of the Bunch don’t care. Even large TH-camrs care when their cars drop in value. When I buy cars that are $100k+, I definitely care what they’ll be worth in 5 years.
@@epicswirl anyone that can afford 100 to 150k plus resale value is not their problem. Only we the poor people worry about that . 90 perfect of luxury car lose value . So people lease it and enjoy it .
@@kromahj I don’t agree. A lot of people buying Range rovers aren’t ultra wealthy and make $100k-$300k a year. A $100k loss is bad for them. They buy it and it’s worth $40000 in 5 years. It is a problem even though they act as if it’s not. Some people are just naive. I really think you are overestimating the average buyer’s wealth. Doug Demuro is worth many millions and says he can’t afford the depreciation. I can afford $100k cars but won’t buy a Range Rover because of its depreciation and reliability. I’d buy an RS5 or RS7 over it and won’t lose 80% of the value of the car.

That's not the whole story most people don't do 53 miles in a day. Let's say you do this many miles in a week. Mon - Fri you do 50 miles a day. Weekend you do 100 a day. So total that's 450, 371 would be all electric leaving 79 miles to be burned in gas alone. Let's say that eats 4 gallons. So 4 gallons got you 450 miles. That's 112 ish mpg. That's where these types of setups shine. I have an older model and can go 2 weeks maybe 3 weeks between fill ups. Before you say it yes I'm assuming best possible electric range and I know cold weather will lower numbers. Even if I lost half the efficiency still be looking at like 40-50 mpg in winter. Just saying.
The last vehicle on the planet I'd cash in my 401K would be anything built by the Land Rover/Range Rover crew. This car maker is always at the bottom of vehicle reliability based on every consumer metric.
Which is why you buy it under your LLC or corp, use it 100% for business and then apply Section 179 ($30,500 for 2024) + bonus depreciation (60% of the remaining purchase price for 2024) which on a $135K vehicle would give you about $93,200 to deduct from your company's 2024 revenue. Caveats: you need to lock the deal up by 12/31/24 and you can't sell it for less than the adjusted cost basis (market value) for approx. 5 years or will get hit with depreciation recapture.
Range Rover is by far one of the worst car companies around, I sat in that new defender it was maybe a year old at most and the whole Interior was already falling apart, horrible build quality!
That’s OK because it’s sustainable whatever that means I’m sure all of the parts falling apart will be recycled into a road in Britain for you know sustainability

A Grand Wagoneer costs pretty close to this. But I've heard that CDJR dealer service is about on par with Yugo. 😂

Another pro review! Great job, well covered and shown. Pretty sharp 👌
Thank you so much for having my back!
Lovely vehicle, love the white/black colour scheme, interior open wood would be better in black. Noticed the STOP signs are ignored !
You know you've truly made it in life when you're driving the ULTRA APOSTLE To the Luxury cars & SUV's.
You hit the nail on the head Luis!
@@RaitisRides Yup I did Joe gracias!
I'm getting my S550 PHEV Autobiography next week and can't wait! Thanks for doing a kick ass review!
Hi Joe, I’ve noticed that you’re not a big fan of the off-white/light interior. What is your preferable toned for luxury vehicles?
Yes its worth the risk if you trade it in after 12 months.
That is a good way to put it!
I’ll take the 6 month lease please
60k miles and 6 years later on mine. ZERO issues. I did lemon law our ford tho last year.
You must never have past warranty expires
I agree with you so much that they should've left the buttons or a screen for the HVAC system
Great minds think a like!
Agreed, its a bit dangerous to fiddle with it. Or they need a voice command like ‘ hey Google’ ‘hey siri adjust the temp’
'kings and queens or just a couple of peasants" hehehe I hope this is not copyrighted so that I can use it. Love your reviews
Something about land rovers and their styling it’s more of revolution than a evolution and still looks good. Just wish the reliability can be there
I feel that same Matt!
FYI
Land Rover is the brand, the model is the Range Rover.
It's a mystery to most. At this point they should split the brand like RAM did.
They have simplified the brand. JLR has split into 3 Brands: Range Rover, Discovery, and Defender.
@@kuns731 those are actually separate models under the Land Rover Brand.
You have to put the car in Sport and Dynamic mode to get the real rush of power. 😊
I've driven both the super and the turbo charged (as rental cars), very fun to drive. I sure wouldn't buy one but maybe a lease 🤔
Good idea Omar
is it going to be reliable though ? like will it stand the test of time? What do you think raiti?
Are the brakes Carbon Ceramic?
Great review, but just a very mild criticism, I would have liked to have seen the backseats folded down to see how flat the back area becomes and how much space opens up, but other than that, awesome!
Thanks for the great feedback! Will do Isaac!
The girls tell me they wish it was smaller….🕺
“Worth the Risk” This is why I love Joe
Removing the 2023 buttons or HVAC / seat control was not a good call.
What about us in the Caribbean that doesn't have the charging port for fully electric oh my but love it ❤
Such an elegant, beautiful, vehicle!
I am so glad that you approve of this one.

This is actually a good Range Rover it's just been overshadowed by the Cadillac Escalade
Thanks Raiti, I love the range Rover... Now how to......
You are so very welcome!
You need the raised letters at the front Incase you want to take them off and have a fully clean hood without any letters
I’ll be getting this in British green satin finish in April
38 kWh battery and can DC fast charge up to 50 kW. not the best at pure EV efficiency, but I think it's really tuned to be a hybrid.

Thank you Sir.
That is so awesome man!
@@RaitisRides14:22 , what’s the black line passing on the display?
If I got one I'd lease it.
Good call!
You buy a Range Rover not lease it
@@Erich2142 When it comes to how unreliable of a reputation Land Rover has, you lease them not buy.
@@godlyweirdo Most Range Rover owners have a business, and when they buy the car they write it off mate. So yes, you BUY a Range Rover.
OMG. What they did with the central screen 😢. Previous was like a masterpiece.
You are actually the first person to say that.
Please if you can track down a 3 row Range Rover . I know they are out there I just have not seen 1 . Thanks
It really is a wonderful dream ride, if had the money I think this on be the one.

Speaking of wood, the apartment community where "Peter Gibbons" lived was named "Morning Wood". 😅 Mike Judge is quite clever.
I’m more worried about getting carjacked
So glad they made the new phev in a non autobiography trim.
I agree with you!

you can't be serious? that's like saying I can't see why someone buys a Mecedes-Benz Maybach S-Class over a Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
@@vorjayhaha good way to put it
Not all Land Rovers are good for off-roading. This one sits atop that list.
I'm late, another unattainable vehicle for me to 🤤 drool over

This is what we need more of, 50 miles electric for around town then gas when you go further.
