New Range Rover GT 2027

This week, the first official teasers of the most unusual Range Rover model appeared, allowing us to see all the key features of its exterior.

Just a few days ago, the first spy shots of unusual prototypes with an unusually low roofline for the brand began to surface online, and initially everyone assumed that a second-generation Velar crossover was hiding under the camouflage. Now it has emerged that the first generation of the stylish SUV with an internal combustion engine will remain in production for a few more years. The new model will instead become the brand's fifth offering and will be named the GT.

As previously mentioned, this is the most unusual model for the company, most closely resembling a passenger car thanks to its low-slung silhouette. Overall, the body shape is reminiscent of a liftback due to the sloping roofline and heavily raked rear window that extends down to the edge of the tailgate. Otherwise, the design follows the current Range Rover styling language, with ultra-clean lines and surfaces. At the front, the crossover features slim horizontal headlights with a strip of daytime running lights at the lower edge, while the grille is still completely hidden under camouflage: we have depicted a version styled after the upcoming electric Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

The substantial front bumper features a pair of vertical air intakes at the edges and a trapezoidal air intake at the bottom. From the side, one can note the brand's signature flush door handles, a bonnet line that wraps around the wheel arches (as seen on the smaller Evoque), frameless doors, and — for the first time on a Range Rover — wing mirrors mounted on stalks. The rear end resembles the current Range Rover Sport, though the tailgate is even flatter, and the rear lights are designed as horizontal strips.

The Range Rover GT is built on the EMA platform, first announced back in 2021, with an 800-volt electrical architecture. It is initially slated as an electric vehicle, though hybrid versions will follow in the future (most likely using an internal combustion engine purely as a generator). The crossover will have at least one electric motor on each axle, so all-wheel drive will come as standard even in the base version. Incidentally, the interior of the new model has already been fully revealed.

The premiere date for the new Range Rover GT has yet to be announced, but given the level of readiness, it could well be expected within the coming months. It will be produced at JLR's plant in Halewood (England, Merseyside) alongside the Evoque and Land Rover Discovery Sport. Meanwhile, earlier this month, new photos and details were released regarding the new large Freelander 8 crossover.
