Although the first-class model is aimed at only a subset of groups, it still sells well in many cities. However, most cities where luxury models are popular will have limited purchase policies, so many luxury brands have launched new energy models. On the one hand, it is to cope with the purchase restriction policy, on the other hand, it is also to transform to the field of new energy.
Land Rover is a luxury brand with a traditional car-making mentality, and its models basically have high fuel consumption, because Land Rover models are not stingy in providing power, so the fuel consumption of traditional internal combustion engine models has become a problem. However, land rover's development in the field of new energy provides consumer groups with travel solutions that can save fuel consumption, which is also a matter of concern.
Land Rover found that Sport New Energy is one of the hybrid models it has extended, and the model version on sale is the P300e. This model belongs to the plug-in hybrid SUV, with an engine, but also has an electric motor, in addition to the use of the city can effectively save fuel consumption, the model also has off-road attributes, in the face of high-speed or wild terrain, the engine will intervene in the drive.
At the same time, this is also a four-wheel drive model, but the motor equipped with the model is mainly in the rear axle, not the front and rear axle dual motors. Therefore, its driving mode is not the pure electric four-wheel drive that we usually see, or a simple mechanical four-wheel drive. Instead, the rear axle is driven by electric drive and the front axle engine is driven, which forms a drive type that effectively saves energy.
If running in the city, the vehicle is used in the low-speed state to be electric, so more accurately, the driving mode in this scenario belongs to the rear axle motor drive, that is, the rear drive mode. However, if the motor and engine are used together at high speed, then the vehicle will show a front and rear four-wheel drive mode.
In addition, the model itself belongs to the oil to electricity, so the body structure is still the fuel version of the set, so the model is basically similar to the fuel model at the general design level, and there is not much change. Only the embossed logo of the P300e was added to the rear of the car to make it easier to distinguish the identity of this model and the fuel version.
This model also adds a charging port in the rear half of the left side of the body, corresponding to the oil injection port on the right side. This is also convenient for the user's travel car, if you plan to drive this SUV to off-road, then in the middle of the road encounter charging station can give the vehicle timely storage of electricity, the use of this time can also take a break. But there is no need to deliberately worry about its endurance, because there is an engine working together, so there is no power and fuel.
Land Rover found that because of the motor fit, the start effect of this model will be very sharp, even if the start is still in the reaction stage, the motor can intervene in the drive first. As soon as one foot is pressed on the accelerator, the power of the vehicle will react immediately. Since the model is a plug-in hybrid, the model offers three energy drive modes to choose from.
The three energy modes are pure electric, pure fuel, and oil-electric hybrid. There is an EV key at the center console button in the car, as long as you press it, three energy-driven options will be displayed at the instrument, and the user can judge the current driving conditions and manually select between the three through the multi-function buttons on the steering wheel.
summary:
In fact, Land Rover's models are not very rough in appearance, although Land Rover has many large-scale models, but in addition to the hardcore off-road for crossing, most models will be more handsome in appearance design. While the body still stands out for its power, the exterior is more of a youthful sporty style, including the Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e. Therefore, many young ladies will also be more interested in this model, because the little sister who drives this model will look cool. And the model takes this into account, equipped with a pedal, the little sister will look more relaxed when getting on and off the car, after all, the chassis of this model is not low.
