With the rise of electrification, all car companies are embarking on the layout of electrification, and among luxury brands, BBA has also launched its own electrification products, but if you want to say which luxury brand is more thorough, it is of course Jaguar Land Rover. Not long ago, Jaguar Land Rover announced that Jaguar will be fully upgraded to an electrified luxury brand in 2025, and Land Rover will launch 6 pure electric products in the next 5 years.
In September this year, Land Rover officially launched its second domestic new energy model , the new Range Rover Evoque L P300e plug-in hybrid version, as an important part of the electrification strategy, how does this new car perform? Recently, the new Range Rover Evoque L P300e and Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e test drive activities were officially held in Guangzhou, the car detective experienced the overall performance of the new Range Rover Evoque L P300e through a day, let's take a look at this plug-in hybrid model of Land Rover.
As a plug-and-mix model, the most concerned is of course the performance of its hybrid system. The new Range Rover Evoque L P300e is equipped with a combination of the self-developed Injeli 1.5T engine + 15.5 kWh high energy density ternary lithium battery, of which the Ingeli 1.5T engine itself has a 48V light mix, while the rear motor is directly mounted on the rear wheel drive shaft, so the advantage is that the engine can directly drive the front wheel drive, and the motor directly drives the rear wheel drive, which saves the power loss caused by the drive shaft.
In terms of power performance, the Range Rover Evoque L P300e's 1.5T engine has a maximum output of 200 hp, the maximum output of the motor is 109 hp, and the combined maximum power is 309 hp, the maximum torque can reach 540 Nm, and the acceleration time of 100 km/h only takes 7.0 seconds. As a plug-in hybrid model, more importantly, its comprehensive 100-kilometer fuel consumption is only 1.9 liters, and it has a total of three drive modes, namely hybrid, pure electric and power retention mode.
In the hybrid mode, the motor is with the standby, the engine and the electric machine work at the same time, in the case of daily urban traffic, basically can use the hybrid mode to drive; and in the pure electric mode, the engine will stop operating, at this time the power transmission will be completed by the motor, the mode is more suitable for use in the congested road section, its pure electric mileage can reach 56 kilometers, usually commuting is basically enough; in the power retention mode, the motor is not operating, at this time completely dependent on the engine operation, This mode is more suitable for use in high-speed sections, because the fuel consumption in high-speed sections is generally low, and it is more reasonable to keep the power down and leave it for use in congested sections at this time.
Since most of the road sections on the day of our test drive were high-speed sections, the whole distance was nearly 100 kilometers, we used the hybrid mode, and finally reached the destination after the battery power has been exhausted, but the final average fuel consumption is really low. After the battery is used up, the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque L P300e is also more convenient to charge, it is one of the few plug-in hybrid models with DC fast charging and AC slow charging, dual charging mode at the same time. In the DC fast charge mode, the battery power can be charged from 0% to 80% in 30 minutes; in the AC slow charge mode, it takes only 1.5 hours to obtain 80% of the power, and the speed is relatively fast. And it is understood that the car manufacturer will send charging piles, and the vehicle also supports the free setting of charging time function, the general home can be set in the night low peak hours to charge, so that it is cheap and environmentally friendly.
Although the Range Rover Evoque L P300e is a new energy model, first of all it is still a Land Rover model, so Land Rover's luxury all-terrain brand gene is still unchanged in the bones. On paper data, the Range Rover Evoque L P300e has a ground clearance of 212 mm, an approach angle of 20°, a departure angle of 32°, and a wading height of 600 mm. On the day of the test drive, the manufacturer specially arranged a section of off-road road section for us to experience, the road section covers large steep slopes, slopes, ditch roads, bumpy roads and other road sections, because the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque L P300e standard with the second generation of intelligent all-terrain feedback adaptation system and all-terrain process control system, under the blessing of transparent chassis and 360 panoramic images, through a variety of road surfaces can be easily coped with.
In addition to the above highlights, the space of the Range Rover Evoque L P300e is also one of its main highlights, in order to cater to Chinese consumers, "L" is designed for the Chinese market, this car does not seem to be large on the outside, but its wheelbase reached 2841 mm, an increase of 160 mm compared with the original version, the leg space of the rear seat was increased from the previous 859 mm to 1015 mm, the volume of the trunk also reached a corresponding increase, and the comfort of sitting in the rear was greatly increased.
Detective Che has something to say
As a plug-in hybrid vehicle, the performance of the Range Rover Evoque L P300e can be said to be very all-round, comprehensive fuel consumption, off-road capabilities, power performance, space performance, etc. are remarkable, and in terms of price, the price of the plug-in hybrid model and the price of the fuel version are exactly the same, which is also "unique" in the entire industry, from which we can also see Jaguar Land Rover's determination to electrify.
