Got a 510e on order. Was wavering on changing to a D350 as I think diesels definitely suit big SUVs (I’ve previously run the 4.4 V |

Interesting… I currently have an iPace (my second) and have ordered a 440e. |

I've been running a L405 P400e for 2 1/2yrs and here are some reasons why I dont like it and also reasons why the P440e/510e might be better

As I live now in Switzerland yet need to drive for business and private meetings at least 1000km 2x a month I have had a long and noteworthy discussion on diesel or phev with a family owned LR dealer salesperson in Switzerland. His experience: 2.0PHEV is not a great combination, only works for small commutes. Any serious long distance driving as well trips into the mountains: you will find yourself dragging 2.5tonnes of weight with a too small engine. Moreover, depreciation is high on the 2.0PHEV in RRS and RR in Switzerland because of the in practice high fuel consumption of 10-11ltr/100km (equal to my D3!!!).

Agree with the first bit of that, particularly the fact that the 2.0 litre engine in the P400e package is not appropriate for dragging 2.5t of RR or RRS around when the battery runs out
