最近谍照记者在瑞典拍到了正在进行寒冷气候测试的路虎揽胜插电混动版，该车预计将于明年发布。用于充电的第二插口被伪装遮盖，这进一步证明了路虎正在测试混动版揽胜。这辆红色测试车的车身上有多个高压电警示贴纸，这进一步透露了其动力系统。车辆充电插口位于车辆前部，从照片看，格栅一侧看起来与其他车型不太一样。虽然目前还不清楚车辆动力系统细节，但预计将包括一台2.0升四缸Ingenium汽油引擎和一台电机及位于行李箱地板下的锂电池。虽然该车可以在纯电动模式下行驶，但考虑到该车的硕大车身和重量，预计不会超过32-48公里。揽胜运动版也将增加混动系统，因此这两款车的硬件预计将共享。

 

2018 Range Rover Plug-in Hybrid spied cold-weather testing

Almost 50 years old, the Range Rover is about to embrace a new era: electrification. Seen here are a couple of prototypes of a plug-in hybrid version undergoing testing in Sweden prior to a possible launch at some point next year.

 

Even though a second cap for the charging port is not visible at this point, we have it on good authority Land Rover was testing an electrified Range Rover. The red one pictured below actually has a couple of high voltage stickers, thus revealing the type of powertrain.

 

Recharging the batteries will be done via a port mounted somewhere within the front grille. They’re probably right taking into account one side of the grille looks slightly different than the other and that must be the place where the port will be located on the production model.

 

The identity of the powertrain is shrouded in mystery at this point, although it is believed the Range Rover Plug-in Hybrid will combine a four-cylinder Ingenium 2.0-liter gasoline engine with an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery pack mounted underneath the trunk’s floor. Some electric range is expected, but don’t hold your breath for anything higher than 20-30 miles (32-48 km) taking into account the sheer size and weight of the luxobarge.

 

The Range Rover Sport has also been spied as a plug-in hybrid, so it might receive just about the same hardware.
