MAHWAH, N.J. ‑ 13 December 2023: Today, Range Rover opens the waiting list for its highly anticipated Range Rover Electric, ahead of formal orders opening to clients.
Since going on sale in 2021 the latest generation Range Rover has set a new benchmark for desirability. Across the globe, we’re seeing the highest levels of client demand in our 53‑year history.
Because of this unprecedented success story, we’re now opening the official waiting list for the opportunity to be among the first to place a pre‑order for the most anticipated Range Rover vehicle of recent times.
Marking a new era for the Range Rover brand: the original luxury SUV is now available as an all‑electric model.
Geraldine Ingham
Managing Director, Range Rover
Announcing the next stage in its modern luxury electrification journey, the first fully electric vehicle from Range Rover will amplify its modern luxury credentials. Its exemplary British design remains distinctive and unwavering, while its capability and all‑terrain technology will ensure hallmark towing2 and wading1.
We are on target to create the quietest and most refined Range Rover ever created.
The magic ingredients that underpin the success of Range Rover remain unchanged: timeless, reductionist design, a serene cabin and capability – but now offered with zero tailpipe emissions.
And as repeated throughout history, the Range Rover will continue to set the standard. The first of its type. An electric luxury SUV that can deliver on the Range Rover promise. A true global luxury product, as yet unseen in the industry.
Created in the heart of the United Kingdom, the Range Rover Electric will slot into the range alongside its mild hybrid [MHEV] and plug‑in electric hybrid [PHEV] siblings, offering a breadth of options to meet our clients’ needs.

Executive Director, Product Engineering, JLR
Range Rover Electric will deliver performance comparable to a flagship Range Rover V8 and the all‑terrain capability developed in‑house by Land Rover experts that has been a hallmark since Range Rover’s inception in 1970.
Physical prototype testing is underway, as engineers target the quietest and most refined Range Rover ever created, with a unique active road noise cancellation configuration, sound design and level of cabin comfort.
After a year of virtual development spanning front‑end robustness, multi‑body systems analysis that considers the demand on the chassis, and virtual wading at up to 31 mph, the first physical vehicles have been built. Global on‑road testing has started, from Sweden to Dubai, in temperatures ranging from ‑40C to +50C (‑40 to 122 Fahrenheit). The global physical testing program has been adapted for the Range Rover brand’s first fully electric vehicle to ensure robustness of the electric drive system, including its underfloor, battery durability, chassis integrity and vehicle dynamics tests for thermal derating.
New Range Rover Electric will be designed, engineered and built in the United Kingdom, on the flexible Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) in Solihull, alongside existing mild and plug‑in hybrid Range Rover vehicles. For the first time, batteries and EDUs will be built and assembled at JLR’s new Electric Propulsion Manufacturing Center in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom, as the Range Rover brand electrifies ahead of its 2039 net‑zero carbon ambition.
