The 2019 Range Rover Sport will be available with four power options; either a supercharged V6, supercharged V8, turbo V6 diesel and now a plug-in hybrid setup with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder.

The new plug-in makes use of a 296 horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine coupled with a 85 kW electric motor good for 114 horsepower, totaling just about 400 horsepower altogether and 472 lb-ft of torque. Top speed is 137 mph with a 0-60 time of 6.7 seconds, and the fully electric mode, one of two driving modes, has a claimed range of 31 miles.

This update includes a touched up design, a new dual-10-inch-screen infotainment system, gesture-controlled sun blinds, 14 power points on the interior, and now you can option for Land Rover’s “activity key” that let’s you leave the key fob at home.

Also updated for the 2018 model year is the Range Rover Sport SVR, which gets a power boost up to 575 horsepower and a slight shave off of the 0-60 time, which is now 4.3 seconds.

Pricing for the 2019 hybrid model will start at $78,300, and the combined MPG hasn’t been announced yet.
