New Powertrain - LR-SDV6 3.0 Diesel Hybrid

Designed and engineered for a Hybrid derivative from the start, the Range Rover Sport Hybrid makes no compromise to Land Rover's legendary breadth of capability.

The 3.0 SDV6 Hybrid will be available in both HSE and Autobiography trim levels and is now available to order

• HSE Hybrid - $146 900
• Autobiography Hybrid - $165 300

As a Land Rover without compromise, the newly developed full parallel hybrid system helps to further improve efficiency along with outstanding refinement and effortless performance.

The Hybrid uses a state-of-the-art diesel powertrain which combines the 215kW 3.0-litre engine, and an integral 35kW/175Nm electric motor packaged between the engine and the 8-speed automatic transmission.

To ensure that there is no compromise to the Range Rover Sport's peerless breadth of capability, the vehicle has been engineered from the start for a hybrid derivative. As a result, the hybrid model retains the dynamic driving experience of the other models, as well as their class-leading off-road performance.

The Hybrid model offers the customer additional Hybrid functionality in addition to the Land Rover Terrain Response programs. A driver selectable EV mode prioritises EV running on electric power only, and an Inhibit mode prioritises Hybrid boost to support the engine for maximum vehicle performance or to reassure the driver on difficult terrain.
