๐๏ธ Range Rover just sent its new electric Sport up the 3,000-foot marble peaks of Carrara, Italy, to prove that going electric does not mean giving up its off-road reputation.
โ
The Range Rover Sport Electric uses two electric motors producing 550 PS and 850 Nm of torque, making it the torquiest Range Rover Sport yet.
โ
Its Peak to Peak challenge included gradients of up to 45 degrees, tight hairpins, polished marble, loose marble dust and sheer drops high above the quarry floor.
โ
Range Roverโs intelligent torque management can adjust torque in as little as 50 milliseconds, while all-wheel steering, air suspension and active roll control help keep the SUV composed on unpredictable surfaces.
โ
The same SUV can do 0โ60 mph in as little as 4.3 seconds, while its 118.5 kWh battery delivers up to 378 miles of WLTP range.
โ
This stunt continues a long tradition of Range Rover Sport challenges that has included Pikes Peak, the 999 steps to Heavenโs Gate in China and an Icelandic spillway.
