Range Rover Opens Orders in Australia for Its First All‑Electric SUV

The launch pairs a double‑stack 118.5 kWh battery with an 800V 350 kW fast‑charge system and an eight‑year battery warranty to reassure buyers as deliveries are slated for the first half of 2027.

Overview

  • JLR Australia has opened orders and posted pre‑on‑road prices for three grades: HSE $317,718, Autobiography $357,718 and SV $417,418.
  • The Range Rover Electric uses dual 260 kW motors for a combined output of 405 kW and 850 Nm and Range Rover claims 0–100 km/h in 4.5 seconds.
  • The car runs an 800V electrical architecture with a double‑stack 118.5 kWh battery that Range Rover says can charge from 10–80% in around 22 minutes on a 350 kW DC charger and add roughly 220 km of range in about 10 minutes.
  • Ownership perks include a Battery Digital Twin with more than 900 diagnostic data points, over‑the‑air updates, an eight‑year/160,000 km battery and EV component warranty, plus a complimentary 12‑month/500 kWh Chargefox allowance for Australian buyers.
  • Range Rover points to more than 1.5 million km of testing and in‑house battery and e‑drive production to support reliability, but real‑world range and exact Australian delivery dates remain subject to market testing and final scheduling.
