Baldauf\/SB-Medien<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The MLA platform has been designed to fit both internal-combustion and electric powertrains and will eventually underpin most models from Land Rover (there will be a second platform dubbed EMA for Land Rover&#8217;s small crossovers). The MLA platform is also lighter than the aluminum-intensive D7 platform underpinning the outgoing Range Rover Sport.<\/p>\n<p>Expect most of the Range Rover Sport&#8217;s powertrains to be shared with the Range Rover. This means a base 3.0-liter inline-6 and mild-hybrid setup good for 395 hp, a 3.0-liter inline-6 and plug-in hybrid setup good for 434 hp, and a 4.4-liter BMW-sourced V-8 good for 523 hp. A more powerful version of the V-8, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1134917_next-range-rover-sport-svr-tipped-to-receive-600-plus-hp-v-8\">possibly with more than 600 hp<\/a>, should feature in the Range Rover Sport SVR.<\/p>\n<p>A battery-electric powertrain will also be offered at some point. The Range Rover will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1133913_electric-range-rover-due-in-2024-could-spawn-hydrogen-option\">offer an electric option in 2024<\/a>, and the Range Rover Sport should do the same shortly after. Land Rover plans to have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1114120_land-rover-to-launch-6-electric-vehicles-by-2026\">six models in its lineup with electric power<\/a> by 2026. And by 2030, all Land Rovers will either be electric or have the option of an electric powertrain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Land Rover has just launched a redesigned Range Rover, and soon we&#8217;ll see a redesigned version of the smaller Range Rover Sport.
