lately Jaguar Land Rover Korea (hereinafter referred to as ‘Land Rover’) has entered into a pre-order for the ‘2024 Range Rover’. As can be seen from the car name, it corresponds to a model year change.
2024 Range Rover, attention to model year change
However, it is worth noting that it has specifications that are slightly different from the typical model year change. It is known that this model has changed the powertrain configuration in accordance with Land Rover’s Reimagine strategy.
In addition, the options have been expanded to provide comfort in any environment in standard and long wheelbase.
Pay attention to new powertrain and plug-in hybrid
First is the powertrain. Starting with this Range Rover, you can choose the P550e PHEV model. It combines Range Rover’s unique, sophisticated 3.0-liter I6 Ingenium gasoline engine, a 160kW electric motor integrated with a transmission, and a 38.2kWh lithium-ion battery.
By combining a 400PS Ingenium engine and a 160kW electric motor, it delivers a maximum output of 550PS and can run from a standstill to 100km/h in just 5.0 seconds.
What is noteworthy is when it is in electric driving mode. According to official data, this car can drive a distance of over 100 km based on WLTP using only electric energy.
Charging provides a 50kW DC fast charging function, allowing the battery to be charged to approximately 80% within 1 hour. When charging through a 7.2kW AC wallbox supply, it takes 5 hours to fully charge.
Meanwhile, starting with the 2024 Range Rover, the MHEV (mild hybrid) system will also be included in the V8 gasoline engine. This system stores energy that can be lost during deceleration in a 48V lithium-ion battery and ensures responsiveness and precise operation of the stop/start system through BiSG (Belt-integrated Starter Generator).
According to related data, when braking the car with the next-generation stop/start technology, the engine is stopped at a speed of less than 3 km/h and the engine is operated quickly and smoothly when the car is accelerated by pressing the accelerator pedal again, allowing comfortable and stable driving.
Range Rover SV is equipped with a V8 gasoline engine, providing smoother and more powerful performance with a maximum output of 615 horsepower and a maximum torque of 76.5 kg.m. For reference, the 0-100 km/h acceleration time is only 4.6 seconds.
I really want to do it, but it is equipped with advanced off-road features
In addition to driving performance, the 2024 Range Rover also has many specifications to support it. The newly added adaptive off-road cruise control is a responsive system that reads the terrain when driving off-road, and automatically adjusts the speed within a maximum of 30 km/h by considering the condition of the road surface, slope, articulation, and steering angle.
In addition, the following features have been added to the 2024 Range Rover.
▶ All-Wheel Steering
: Electronic air suspension, assists driving convenience on narrow roads in the city
▶ Dynamic Response Pro
: Vehicle body movement control
▶ Intelligent Driveline Dynamics (IDD) system
: Provides optimal traction on and off-road
▶ Active Locking Rear Differential System
: Provides improved driving performance in high-speed cornering sections, slippery roads, and off-road
▶ Fully automatic terrain response system (Terrain Response®2)
The design is Luxury feeling intact
As it is a model year change, there is no change in the design aspect. The exterior remains the same, with a modern reinterpretation of Range Rover’s trademark profile by taking the modernist design philosophy a step further.
As before, the rear part is also equipped with gloss black panel vertical tail lights with Hidden-until-lit lighting technology, giving a sense of unity as if one side is connected.
The same goes for the interior. It presents a modern and sophisticated atmosphere equipped with intuitive and user-friendly technology. The 13.1-inch curved floating glass touchscreen, which appears to float above the dashboard, is equipped with the next-generation Phoebe Pro infotainment system that provides technological sophistication and perfect connectivity.
Climate control, heated and ventilated seat functions, driving mode and audio volume control, etc., which were previously operated through the bottom controller, can be operated through a new multi-function sidebar controller called ‘Touch and Sliding Control’ within the infotainment screen.
In addition, the ‘One Touch Shortcut Panel’ has been newly added, allowing you to immediately operate commonly used functions when you get into the car and turn on the engine.

A word from the editor
Land Rover last year, 5,019 units were sold domestically. This is a 61.2% increase from 3,113 units in 2022. Note that This is thanks to the rapid increase in sales of the 5th generation New Range Rover and 3rd generation New Range Rover Sport, which were launched in August and November last year, respectively.
Although the price has been set high, demand is still high. Can we record higher performance this year than last year?
