-
PETROL
Offering a dynamic and agile drive, our new breed of petrol engines honour the legacy of Land Rover’s iconic on-road responsiveness, while delivering impressively low fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
-
PHEV
Our Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) seamlessly combine a conventional engine with an electric motor to provide all-electric performance at lower speeds and traditional combustion performance on longer journeys.
WHICH ONE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
Answer 5 quick questions about your driving habits to see if your next vehicle should be diesel, petrol or electric.
YOUR RECOMMENDED ENGINE IS - DIESEL
INTRODUCTION TO DIESEL
All our vehicles fitted with Land Rover's new Diesel engines are a great fit for drivers predominantly taking longer journeys on motorways with some city travel.
All our diesel vehicles are fitted with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) and use Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to meet stringent regulations and lower tailpipe emissions.
- Typically more fuel efficient than petrol engines.
- Often feature more low-end torque, ideal for motorways, towing power and off-road driving.
- EU6 compliant for emissions with CO2 level approximately 20% below petrol.
- New diesel won't always be at its efficient best if you only take short trips or mostly drive in cities.
YOU COULD ALSO CONSIDER
YOUR RECOMMENDED ENGINE IS - PETROL
INTRODUCTION TO PETROL
Our petrol vehicles are an ideal choice for drivers who primarily take shorter journeys and tend to drive fewer kilometres on the motorway. All our new petrol vehicles utilise the latest technology, including GPF (Gasoline Particulate Filters) to help reduce emissions.
- Well suited to dynamic or high performance driving.
- Typically more suited to shorter urban journeys than diesels.
- EU6 compliant with cutting-edge technology to reduce emissions.
- More tailpipe CO2 emissions than diesel engines.

YOUR RECOMMENDED POWERTRAIN IS PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE (PHEV)
INTRODUCTION TO PHEV
Our Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles (PHEV) combine many of the advantages of electric vehicles with the flexibility of a conventional combustion engine. Ideal for short regular journeys and occasional longer trips, delivering optimum performance and efficiency.
- Offers the flexibility of a conventional combustion engine for longer journeys without the need to re-charge.
- Provide good fuel economy when regularly charged and capable of using no fuel on shorter journeys.
- Prioritise electric power on shorter journeys for greater efficiency.
- Long motorway journeys use only the petrol engine, minimising the benefits of the electric motor.

THE KEY BENEFITS OF NEW DIESEL, PETROL AND PHEV
-
LOW CO2 EMISSIONS
Land Rover’s new diesel engines produce around 20% lower CO2 emissions than petrol engines. In fact, since 2002, buyers choosing diesel engines have saved almost 3 million tonnes of CO2 from going into the atmosphere.
-
ENHANCED FUEL EFFICIENCY
Diesel engines deliver around 20% better fuel economy than their petrol counterparts. So if you frequently cover 19,000km a year or more, it’s likely to be the most cost-effective choice for you.
-
A DYNAMIC DRIVING EXPERIENCE
With smooth and responsive power delivery, Land Rover petrol engines offer our most spirited driving experiences. They’re an exhilirating combination of effortless performance and stirring sounds at all speeds.
-
LOW PARTICULATES
Our latest petrol engines are equipped with highly efficient filters to capture and store ultrafine particles as exhaust gases pass through them. This helps to lower the amount of tailpipe emissions released into the atmosphere.
-
CHEAPER UPFRONT COSTS
Although diesel engines typically offer greater fuel efficiency, the cheaper upfront costs on equivalent petrol engines can often prove a smarter choice for lower mileage drivers taking shorter journeys.
-
ULTRA-LOW EMISSIONS
Offering an impressive zero-tailpipe emission range, Land Rover PHEVs aren't just more economical to run, they are more eco-friendly than fuel-burning equivalents – massively reducing your environmental footprint.
-
NO COMPROMISE IN CAPABILITIES
The off-road capabilities you expect from a Land Rover remain uncompromised with PHEV. For example, Range Rover’s wading depth is exactly the same as a conventional combustion engine, plus the additional torque provided by the electric motor is also a benefit when driving off-road.
-
A MORE REFINED DRIVE
Offering our quietest drive yet, PHEV ensures a seamless transition between the petrol engine and electric motor, delivering optimal refinement and adding to the sense of serenity within the interior space.
-
ECONOMICAL RUNNING COSTS
The relative low cost of electricity versus petrol and diesel means PHEVs are much cheaper to refuel. And with fewer moving powertrain parts to preserve, they’re also signifcantly cheaper to maintain.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
What is a powertrain?
A vehicle powertrain is every component that turns power into movement. This includes: axles, differentials, drive shafts, engine / electric motor, transmission.
The most common vehicle powertrain systems are petrol, diesel, battery electric vehicle (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). -
How long does it take to recharge a Hybrid car?
Our PHEV range can fully recharge from either a domestic socket or an IEC connector in as little as 7.5 hours, enabling emissions free commuting for up to 50km. Installing a wall box from one of our recommended wall box suppliers and installers can reduce charging times to 2 hours and 45 minutes.
-
What is the range of a Hybrid car?
Using the electric motor only, our PHEVs have a range of up to 50km.* PHEV also utilises a petrol engine to support a much larger range in the same way as other combustion engine vehicles.
-
What are the advantages of diesel over petrol?
The higher energy density of the fuel, and the way energy is released during combustion, means diesel can offer a greater efficiency. If you are driving 19,000km a year or more, a diesel is likely to be the most cost-effective choice.
Generally, a diesel engine offers more torque than a petrol engine, which means its power is more suitable for conquering off-road terrain and towing. -
How does Jaguar Land Rover reduce vehicle emissions?
At Jaguar Land Rover, we have invested over £1billion into our state-of-the-art engine manufacturing centre to develop a family of more efficient petrol and diesel engines.
-
Are diesel engines clean?
By producing our cleanest engines to date, we are significantly reducing environmental impact.
-
What is a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and why is it important?
In order to meet stringent emissions regulations, introduced in 2009, all new diesel vehicles are fitted with an exhaust filter. These are also known as Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs). DPFs efficiently capture and store particles from exhaust gases, helping to lower tailpipe emissions.
