Committed to reducing the average emissions of its range, Land Rover unveiled at once two new plug-in hybrids: the Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e it's the Range Rover Evoque P300e.
Already available on the domestic market, the plug-in hybrid variants of Discovery Sport and Evoque are practically indistinguishable from the rest of the range in aesthetic terms.
Therefore, the novelties appear under the bonnet, with Land Rover offering both models a new and unprecedented engine and a new eight-speed automatic transmission.
New engine is the big news
Animating the two plug-in hybrids comes the smallest engine in the Ingenium range, a 1.5 l turbo, with three cylinders and 200 hp which sends power to the front wheels and stands out for weighing 37 kg less than the four-cylinder 2.0 l version.

Associated with this, and with the task of driving the rear wheels, an electric motor with 80 kW (109 hp) appears powered by a 15 kWh battery capacity.
The end result is 309 hp and 540 Nm of power and maximum torque combined . As for the transmission, both use a new eight-speed automatic transmission.
Discovery Sport PHEV and Evoque PHEV numbers
Despite being mechanically similar, the new Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e and Range Rover Evoque P300e have different consumption and autonomy values.
The Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e announces fuel consumption of just 1.6 l/100 km, CO2 emissions of just 36 g/km and a 62 km autonomy in electric mode (all this according to the WLTP cycle).
In the case of the Range Rover Evoque P300e, consumption drops to 1.4 l/100 km, CO2 emissions to 32 g/km and autonomy in electric mode rises to 66 km.
In terms of performance, the Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e reaches 100 km/h in 6.6s, while the Range Rover Evoque P300e reduces that value by two tenths of a second to 6.4s. In both cases it is possible to drive up to 135 km/h using only the electric motor.
In total, the driver can choose from three driving modes: “HYBRID” the pre-set mode that combines the electric motor with the gasoline engine); “EV” (100% electric mode) and “SAVE” (allows you to preserve battery power for later use).
Finally, with regard to charging, in a 32 kW public direct current (DC) charging station it takes 30 minutes and in a 7 kW Wallbox it takes 1h24min.
