Range Rover GT, the fifth member of their family, will be the first all-electric Range
Rover from the new EMA platform. It will be manufactured in Halewood, UK
alongside ICE and hybrid models. Range Rover GT will be available as a battery
electric vehicle (BEV) initially, with flexibility planned to be added to future vehicles
through a full Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) option later in the lifecycle. More
details about the new Range Rover GT will follow later this year.
On the inside, the cabin features technology woven into its layout, with a new single
screen design paired with a driver display in place of a traditional instrument cluster.
A concealed air vent runs across the width of the cabin, providing a clear horizontal
graphic. A woven textile, part of a suite of beautiful materials, wraps the dashboard
in a single, cohesive gesture β tactile, architectural, and designed to hide speakers
within its form. Every element has been considered to create a sanctuary of calm,
with a focus on reduced visual and acoustic noise and natural conversational access
to more vehicle functions than ever before.
Martin Limpert, Managing Director, Range Rover, said: βThe Range Rover
GT will redefine the grand-touring segment with the ability to deliver beautiful and
engaging GT poise, proportions and long-distance refinement while offering
capabilities no conventional GT can match. We have spent the last few years working
obsessively on the fundamentals of the GT formula, reinterpreted in a sophisticated,
uniquely Range Rover way. The result is the most car-like, yet unmistakably capable,
Range Rover ever created, now possible on our electrified EMA architecture β
complementing our existing powertrain portfolio to deliver a complete set of options
for every customer need. Its blend of effortless EV performance, first-class long-haul
refinement and all-terrain capability is pure Range Rover; while its calming interior
previews our vision of a modern grand tourer.β
Attached picture show prototype vehicles, which are undertaking their final on-road
testing, in a bespoke camouflage wrap designed by Range Rover in-house creative
teams. Inspired by the landscape surrounding Gaydon, the home of Range Rover's
Creative and Engineering teams, the camouflage design uses local topographic
contours as the basis for a flowing gold pattern that evokes the vehicle's grand
touring character and sense of journey. Its digital aesthetic draws inspiration from
the advanced technologies embedded within the vehicle, reinforcing Range Rover GT
as the most technologically sophisticated Range Rover ever created.
