This Range Rover P510e was part of the Range Rover's new plug-in electric hybrid range (PHEV), combining a 3.0L 6-Cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor to reduce emissions, increase range, and bring the brand into its more sustainable future. The 510e was at launch the top of the range with a claimed CO2 g/km output of only 20 and being capable of doing 322 mpg and is only available with the higher trim levels such as Autobiography and SV. With one's carbon footprint at the forefront of many people's decision-making these days the Hybrid models definitely attract the more eco-conscious buyer but it's the tax breaks and emission zone benefits which make it the smart buy as well. If running a car through your company the reduction in benefits-in-kind taxes can make a big difference and the ability to charge the car at your home, or whilst on the road using a network of electric car chargers ensure any inconvenience is minimal.

The Range Rover always springs to mind when the words ‘luxury’ and ‘SUV’ are mentioned. Other manufacturers may have tried to mimic the recipe used by Land Rover, however, none have more years in the luxury SUV game. Land Rover realised early on that the key to the new Range Rover wasn’t a complete re-design but revising and updating old features. The finished product is one that we are familiar with in the way it looks and drives, but undoubtedly feels refreshed. The overall design is now slicker with a less ‘boxy’ appearance with nicely proportioned sections. The latest Pivo Pro touchscreen is larger than the previous generation with satisfying haptic feedback when navigating and selecting. Physical HVAC dials remain which doesn’t overcomplicate things, with a re-designed gear selector which replaces the cylindrical selector design. Only the latest technology has been employed with the new Range Rovers. An example of this is the 48-Volt ant-roll bars that communicate directly with the sat-nav, so the car knows if any sharp corners are ahead. Rear-wheel steering is a standard feature, making the large dimensions feel more manageable in smaller spaces.
