P400 is perfectly fine, don’t second guess it at all. That’s the engine I’m planning on ordering.

In the US it makes sense to lease an EV to get the $7500 regardless of income, price of car, or country of origin. Also it protects one from the uncertain but vast depreciation for EVs. The lease residual value for my $105k sticker iX is $55,000, a value which was reached during the first year of leasing.

I would never purchase an EV but I bet a Range Rover EV lease will easily be $2500 plus a month and that’s nuts to me. I think the electric G580 leases for over $3000 a month.

I think 340 miles would be excellent for an EV the size and weight of the Range Rover. I know EV buyers love range but if you are driving more than 340 miles straight on a regular basis then an EV is not the right vehicle to get currently.

I think the Range Rover EV would be perfect for my purposes as a commuter but I don’t want anything to do with the depreciation curve as an owner. Also I expect it to lease horribly.

I have a deposit down to get the first 2026 allocation at the local dealer. They don’t expect any major changes but I didn’t ask about number of allocations. I get the sense that people aren’t beating down their doors for one any more.

I’ll probably end up ordering one but I’m still considering options.
