The cabin features upscale finishes such as leather, wood, and thickly-piled carpeting. While its transformation has been decades in the making, this leather-lined limo has reached a point where its nearly six-figure starting price seems an appropriate ask. All the units are mated to an 8-speed ZF automatic gearbox and twin-speed transmission.Although it has blue-collar roots dating back more than a half-century the 2022 Range Rover's high-end interior and first-class curb appeal are designed to attract wealthy, white-collar buyers. There’s also a 440bhp 3.0-litre six-cylinder plug-in hybrid that pushes out 620Nm of peak torque. The new Range Rover will also be offered with plug-in hybrid versions, powered by a 105kW electric motor coupled to a 3.0-litre six-cylinder, producing a combined output of 510bhp and 700Nm of peak torque.

These variants can do the 0-100kmph sprint in 6.9s, while the latter does the same in 6.1 seconds. There’s also the diesel 3.0-litre in-line six-cylinder D300 and D350 Ingenium engines that produce 300bhp/650Nm, and 350bhp/700Nm respectively. The next petrol unit is a 3.0-litre six-cylinder mill, with a 48-volt mild-hybrid unit that packs in a 38.2kWh lithium-ion battery to develop 400bhp and 550Nm, before accelerating to 100kmph from standstill in 5.8 seconds. This unit powers from 0-100kmph in 4.6 seconds, with a top speed of 250kmph. The 2022 Range Rover is the first Land Rover to be powered by a new 530bhp 4.4-litre V8 engine, which deploys two parallel twin-scroll turbos to produce 750Nm of torque. While the electric Range Rover will be introduced in 2024, we have the details on its mild-hybrids and plug-in hybrid models along with the ICE-powered siblings. Land Rover’s new MLA-Flex body architecture is designed to accommodate ICE, PHEV, and BEV powertrains. The rear is the most striking element with vertical taillights wrapped in a single gloss black panel hidden until lit, with a horizontal section that integrates the other functional lights. The roofline is 10mm lower than before and the new 23-inch alloy wheels are a first for Land Rover. The lower edge of the profile receives a 3D gloss black sill.

The clamshell bonnet stretches in a single crease running the length of the vehicle, ending at the rear quarter. The fog lights, forward radar, and parking sensors are all concealed within the lower horizontal graphic in satin chrome. The front gets a new grille with intersecting LED headlights and daytime running lights. The short front overhang, a new boat-tail rear, and a practical split tailgate all combine to showcase its road presence. Although the new Range Rover is a modern take on the British carmaker’s long heritage, the roofline, waistline, and sill line are also inspired by the older generations of the Range Rover. Now that we are done and dusted with the heavy stuff, let’s move on to the design approach of the new Range Rover.
