Sorry, that was not my interest, but I was driving the car around and on the Highway, and can tell you my impressions:

EV mode:

It´s fantastic, the car runs very smooth and feels leightweight, and in a regular commute you never need the petrol-engine kick in to Speed up. If you push the pedal up to 75% it still Speeds up in electric mode very fast.
Feeling is 0-100 like any other engine at 70% power use. I was running on full electric up to a Speed of 140 km/h.

Hybrid mode:

Smooth Switches between the modes, the engine kicks in very quiet. Just once pushing hard it sounds more up, but a very smart balanced sound.
In Dynamic mode, the Sound is different composed, very close to a 6 zyl Petrol and nothing to be ashamed of in a Range Rover.

Thats it for the moment, as I had only 20 minutes with the car.

Best

Thats great you have answered my question as i was concerned that driving at normal road speed (30mph) would be very slow so its great to know that it speeds up like a regular car

Hi guys

My first post, thanks for all the helpful info so far, really useful stuff.

I’ve got a P400e on order, currently being delayed due to a problem with all the diamond turned alloys (apparently). Has anyone else heard this?

I’ve been given the option to swap from the standard ones on the autobiography (5085) to the Gloss Black 9001. This may speed up the order I’ve been told by the dealer.

Also, has anyone seen the 5085 wheels in the flesh? Wondering whether they are a good match for the black detailing on the autobiography.

Cheers all
