Land Rover is reportedly planning on introducing a new vehicle range that will be called "Road Rover",with the first model due to be shown in late 2019.

If rumours ring true, then we may very well see the introduction of the new Land Rover Road Rover come 2019/2020.

Reports indicate that the Road Rover will be an electric crossover and unlike other Land Rover products, it will be more road bias with minimal offroad capability. With a focus on efficient electric mobility, you can expect the Road Rover to adopt sleek proportions to maximise range. After the initial launch of the first Road Rover model, Land Rover will likely introduce other electric Road Rover models as part of an expanding electric vehicle lineup within Land Rover.

The Road Rover will reportedly be built on the same platform as the next-generation Jaguar XJ which means it should be larger than the recently revealed Jaguar I-Pace EV and will likely feature 2 electric motors that would allow for an all-wheel-drive configuration. The Road Rover’s range may be in upwards of 480 km.

The first Road Rover model might make an appearance at the Los Angeles Motor Show in 2019 before going on sale in 2020. Further details are scarce at this point but we will keep you informed as soon as more information becomes available.
