Maximum Pressure on the Electric Range Rover

Range Rover continues its pursuit to redefine the luxury electric SUV experience, and most importantly, not to miss the mark!

The prototypes of the electric Range Rover have just completed their second season of testing in the extreme conditions of the Arctic. After covering up to 45,000 miles on frozen lakes and snow-covered tracks, they demonstrated an impressive ability to combine performance and comfort in sub-Arctic temperatures.

One of the main areas of improvement is the ThermAssist technology, an advanced thermal management system. This system optimizes energy consumption for heating by up to 40% and recovers heat to warm the drivetrain or the cabin, even at temperatures as low as -10°C. Thus, driving range is maintained at a maximum, while charging performance remains stable, ensuring that Range Rover drivers do not need to worry about extreme temperatures when recharging their vehicle.

A true electric car

One of the major innovations tested on these icy surfaces is the One Pedal driving mode, which proved effective even on slippery terrain. This well-known feature among electric drivers allows for more intuitive and refined driving, providing an effortless experience. Additionally, the switchable double-chamber suspension has been validated, ensuring smooth and adaptable driving regardless of the surface.

With over 50 years of innovation in the industry, Range Rover continues to combine cutting-edge performance with unparalleled comfort. The electric prototypes have proven that they are not only capable of easily navigating challenging terrains but also maintaining superior comfort in all circumstances, whether on-road or off-road. Range Rover’s electric luxury will now have to appeal in everyday driving, beyond the most demanding environments. And that will certainly not be an easier task!
