2027 range rover sport electric debuts with torque and synthetic soundWhile everyone is waiting on Jaguar to finally pull the sheets off its long-promised Type 01 EV, Land Rover is doubling its battery-electric portfolio. Hot on the heels of the full-size Range Rover Electric, the brand has officially revealed the Range Rover Sport Electric.Visually, Land Rover isn't reinventing the wheel. The zero-emissions Sport looks virtually identical to its internal-combustion and plug-in hybrid siblings, opting for stealth luxury rather than radical EV styling, a move that's becoming more popular across the industry.At launch, the Range Rover Sport Electric First Edition is finished in Zadar Grey with Satin Wrap, adding a black contrast roof, and 22‑inch alloy wheels.2027 Range Rover Sport Electric: All The Details2027 Range Rover Sport Electric: All The DetailsView Gallery29 photosWhat changes dramatically sits under the skin. The Range Rover Sport Electric packs a pair of electric motors delivering a combined 543 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque. That torque output makes it the most twistable Range Rover model ever produced, edging out even the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8-powered SV. The dual-motor setup rockets the heavy SUV from 0 to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds.Engineers focused heavily on refining the chassis for the electric transition. The battery placement drops the center of gravity by 2.9 inches compared to the plug-in hybrid model, while overall torsional rigidity increases by 61 percent. Power delivery is also significantly sharper, with motor torque ramping up 50 percent faster than in combustion-powered variants.2027 range rover sport electric debuts with torque and synthetic soundDespite its street-focused tuning, the Sport Electric retains the brand's signature go-anywhere capability. To prove the point, JLR pushed development prototypes up 45-degree inclines through the loose marble dust and slick rock of Italy's Carrara quarries. The electric SUV retains a 35.4-inch (900 mm) maximum water-wading depth.Energy comes from a massive 118.5-kWh lithium-ion battery pack riding on an 800-volt electrical architecture. On the European WLTP testing cycle, Range Rover estimates a maximum range of up to 378 miles (609 km) on a full charge. When hooked up to a high-output DC fast charger, the 800V setup can replenish the battery from 10 to 80 percent in roughly 22 minutes, or add 136 miles of range in 10 minutes.To inject driver engagement into the silent powertrain, engineers programmed a bespoke synthetic acoustic signature that changes across different drive modes. In possibly one of the greatest lines of hyperbole in automotive press release history, Land Rover says the "sound design layers simple tones that blur the lines between music and engineering."The Range Rover Sport Electric will be manufactured alongside gas and hybrid models at JLR's Solihull plant in the UK.
