A prototype Range Rover capable of going 200 miles on a single electric charge is to be unveiled.

It has been designed by a team working in Oxford and could be on sale next year.

The bill for driving an environmentally friendly Range Rover will be a hefty one, with the prices ranging from £95,000 to £125,000.

However, unlike the car’s conventional equivalents, the tax bill for running the car will be minimal.

Electric cars on the market, such as the G-Wizz have a range of around 50-60 miles - but are also on sale at a fraction of the proposed price for the Liberty Electric Range Rover.

THERE were two 4×4 awards up for grabs in Auto Express?s New Car Honours 2008 ? and Land Rover won them both.

If you want a compact SUV, the Freelander is the best option, and for those with the budget to venture into the premium off-road sector, it?s the larger Discovery which tops the chart.

That?s all the more impressive when you consider the variety in the premium SUV market. In addition to rivals such as the new BMW X5 and Mercedes M-Class, the Discovery faced stiff in-house competition from the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

The model beat the Hyundai Santa Fe and the VW Tiguan to the accolade, which was presented by a judging panel of women and What Car? editor Steve Fowler.

Cars up for the title were tested for comfort, driving, space and practicality.

Alex Jenner-Fust, editor of evecars.com, said the car was “comfortable, feels modern and will tackle anything”.

Commenting on the model, whose new title will be of interest to holders of female car insurance, Land Rover UK’s managing director John Edwards said it was a “spacious, versatile and capable seven-seat family vehicle”.
