All-new Range Rover arrives in PH with hybrid power, driving technologies

MANILA: Coventry Motors Corporation (CMC), the sole authorized distributor of Land Rover vehicles, parts, and accessories in the Philippines locally, launched the New Range Rover.

The 2022 Range Rover can trace its origins back through the generations; the falling roofline, strong waistline — with its horizontal emphasis — and lower rising sill. The characteristically short front overhang, formal front end, upright windscreen, and distinctive boat tail rear, which tapers in plain view, are key elements in defining Range Rover’s proportions and conveying its peerless presence.

Flush elements and tight tolerances are a hallmark of the 2022 Range Rover and design-enabling technologies contribute to its sophisticated honed-from-solid appearance, including flush glazing, a hidden waist rail finisher and seamless laser-welded roof joints. The distinctive hidden-until-lit rear light further stylizes the look. 

The new Range Rover combines advanced technology with modern luxury to deliver peerless refinement for every occupant, and is the first model to use Land Rover’s new flexible Modular Longitudinal Architecture. 

MLA-Flex can accommodate internal combustion, plug-in hybrid, and 100% electric powertrains. It represents the next step in Land Rover’s simplified architecture strategy that delivers greater powertrain flexibility and sets new quality benchmarks.

The 2022 Range Rover will be offered in two variants, HSE and Autobiography. Two body design options, standard, and long wheelbase and in different engine sizes. A pure-electric Range Rover — the first all-electric Land Rover — will join the line-up in 2024.

The pure-electric new Range Rover will be the first in a series of all-electric Land Rovers. Every nameplate will be available with pure-electric propulsion by the end of the decade, helping Jaguar Land Rover achieve net-zero carbon across its products, operations, and supply chain by 2039.

The Range Rover plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) powertrains provide CO2 emissions below 30g/km, with a WLTP-certified pure-electric driving range of up to 100 kilometers. They deliver an expected real-world pure-electric driving range of up to 80 kilometers,  enough for typical Range Rover customers to complete up to 75% of trips using electric power only.

Below are the prices of the 2022 Range Rover as provided by CMC.

A suite of innovative technologies contributes to the 2022 Range Rover’s peerless comfort and refinement.

Next-generation Active Noise Cancellation technology delivers one of the quietest cabins on the road. It builds on the hushed and sealed body architecture by using microphones on the outside of the vehicle and headrest speakers on the inside to create personal quiet zones for the cabin occupants — much like high-end active noise cancelling headphones.

Comfort and wellbeing are enhanced by Cabin Air Purification Pro, which combines dual-Nanoe X technology for allergen reduction and pathogen removal to help significantly reduce odors and viruses, while CO2 Management and PM2.5 Cabin Air Filtration enhance air quality. Advanced Nanoe X technology is scientifically proven to significantly reduce viruses and bacteria including SARS-CoV-2 viruses.

Sustainability extends beyond the choice of efficient powertrains, with innovative materials and processes combining to reduce the environmental impact of producing and driving the new Range Rover.

Range Rover capability and composure is provided by Land Rover’s pioneering Integrated Chassis Control system, which controls the most comprehensive array of chassis technologies ever fitted to a vehicle of this kind.

All-wheel steering provides greater high-speed stability and the tightest turning circle of any Land Rover, while advanced Electronic Air Suspension pre-emptively reacts to the road ahead using eHorizon navigation data. New Dynamic Response Pro technology provides fast-reacting electronic roll control for elevated composure and agility in all environments.

The all-new fifth-generation Range Rover has been designed, developed, and engineered in the UK and will be produced exclusively at Land Rover’s Solihull Manufacturing Facility — the historic home of Range Rover — on a new state-of-the-art production line.
