Range Rover GT Unveiled: Brand's First All-Electric GT Set for Production in First Half of 2027

Land RoverRange Rover is set to launch its fifth model — the Range Rover GT (Range Rover GT) — a new luxury GT coupe featuring low drag and a fastback design, not a traditional SUV. According to foreign media reports, the vehicle recently completed road testing at the Nürburgring circuit, with its camouflaged prototype captured in dynamic real-world conditions for the first time — marking the final validation phase before production.

Unlike the four existing SUVs in the current Range Rover lineup, the Range Rover GT is officially described as "the most technologically advanced model the brand has ever created" and its first production vehicle built on JaguarLand Rover's all-new EMA (Electric Modular Architecture) pure-electric platform. Initially, the car will be offered exclusively in battery-electric form, with a plug-in hybrid variant potentially added later in its lifecycle.

Range Rover CEO Martin Limbert stated that the vehicle embodies years of the brand's exploration into GT Everus: "The result is the most sedan-like Range Rover yet — without compromising its iconic off-road capability." Its design language emphasizes "purity, precision, and serene Hyundai presence." The interior ditches the conventional instrument cluster in favor of a compact driver display, features a full-width concealed HVAC vent across the center console, and uses fabric-wrapped dashboard surfaces to minimize mechanical cues and enhance an immersive cabin experience.

In terms of powertrain and range, the Range Rover GT is expected to pack a 100 kWh battery pack. Leveraging its aerodynamic fastback body, its WLTP range could approach 800 km (~500 miles). For comparison, the already-announced flagship all-electric Range Rover SUV — built on the MLA platform — features a 118 kWh battery and delivers a WLTP range of 600 km (373 miles).

Production is scheduled to begin in the first half of 2027 at Jaguar Land Rover's Halewood plant in the UK — later than both the flagship all-electric Range Rover SUV and the smaller Range Rover Sport variant. In market positioning, the Range Rover GT will sit below the Velar, with an estimated starting price exceeding £75,000 (~$100,000) in the UK and around $90,000 in the US, where EPA-estimated range is projected to be no less than 300 miles.
