Range Rover's fifth model is a grand tourer, and it's electric

The GT is being pitched as a grand tourer rather than a traditional SUV, and it's the first Range Rover built on the brand's new EMA platform, the architecture that will underpin its next generation of electric models. At launch, it will be available only as a fully electric vehicle, with a hybrid version planned to join further down the line.

Worth being clear on one thing though: this isn't the first electric Range Rover full stop. That title still belongs to the Range Rover Electric, the flagship SUV based on the current Range Rover platform, which is arriving this year after a long wait. The GT is the first Range Rover on the newer EMA platform specifically, the same architecture set to power upcoming Jaguar EVs too. It's a small distinction, but an important one if you're trying to keep track of who got there first.

What we know about the cabin

Range Rover has given us our first proper look inside the GT, and the direction is a calmer, more pared back one. The dashboard is wrapped in a single woven textile that hides the speakers within it, there's a concealed air vent running the full width of the cabin, and a single large screen sits alongside a driver display in place of the usual instrument cluster. The aim, according to Range Rover, is a cabin with less visual and acoustic clutter, and more of the car's functions accessible just by talking to it.

Second row legroom gets a mention too, described as class leading, so this looks like a car built with rear seat comfort firmly in mind, in keeping with its grand tourer billing.

Martin Limpert, Managing Director of Range Rover, described the GT as the most car like Range Rover yet, while still aiming to keep the capability the brand is known for. That's the balance Range Rover is trying to strike here: a car that drives and feels like a proper GT, but doesn't lose the all terrain ability people expect from the badge.

Still under wraps, for now

The car itself is currently going through its final testing, wearing a camouflage wrap designed in house and inspired by the landscape around Gaydon, where Range Rover's engineering and design teams are based. It's a nice touch, even if it means we're still working from teaser shots rather than the finished article.

Range Rover has said more details will follow later this year, including the specifications people will actually want to know, like range, battery size and charging speed. Manufacturing will happen at Halewood in the UK, where the brand already builds its petrol, diesel and hybrid models.

There's no word yet on price or exact timing for when the GT will reach customers, but expect that to become clearer as we move through the rest of 2026. We'll update this post as soon as Range Rover shares more.
