Range Rover Electric prototypes are currently undergoing some of the most demanding testing ever experienced by any Range Rover, in one of the harshest environments on Earth.
As part of the rigorous development of the brand’s first all-electric Range Rover, the vehicles are being put to the ultimate test in the searing heat of the United Arab Emirates’ desert. The goal is to challenge both vehicle performance and efficiency, ensuring the entire propulsion system remains reliably temperature-controlled and capable of delivering long-lasting, optimal range.
Range Rover’s advanced thermal management system is being subjected to extreme conditions, with temperatures reaching up to 50°C and humidity levels of up to 90%. This grueling test, conducted in one of the most unforgiving climates, pushes the limits of the vehicle’s climate control system. From steep desert ascents to sun-baked city driving, no scenario is left untested in the pursuit of maximum comfort for the cabin and superior vehicle capability.
In the heart of Sharjah’s Al Badayer desert, the towering ‘Big Red’ dune rises majestically amidst the saffron-hued sands. This natural 300-foot dune is considered UAE’s ultimate desert hill climb. As part of its rigorous testing, every Range Rover must conquer the ascent five times without any drop in performance before advancing to the next stage.
The Range Rover passed this demanding challenge with ease, demonstrating exceptional capability and endurance.
