Browns of Richmond are delighted to offer this impressive Landrover Discovery Sport Plug in Hybrid, worthy of any used buyers consideration this car has some key features that set it apart from the competition. Mating two powertrains into one to provide a super simple means of benefiting from what each has to offer. Maximise fuel efficiency by driving on pure electric for shorter journeys and take advantage of the easy of refuelling a petrol engine for longer journeys. The fact of the matter is, for the vast majority of people in the UK the daily commute is around 30 miles, in which case a driver could save a fortune in petrol by using only the EV option! The petrol engine is 1.5, capable of decent fuel economy on its own, mated to an automatic transmission. In addition, the car is fitted with a 12.2 kWh battery capable of powering the whole car for around 20 or 30 miles. With clever and innovative technology, the two between them can deliver some mind-boggling economy stats, not only that but combined they generate 309 bhp!, One of the biggest differences between a Full Hybrid such as a Toyota Rav4 and a Plug in Hybrid like this Discovery Sport PHEV is control over the battery, in a plug in hybrid the driver has the ability to drive the car on pure electric for longer periods of time and at higher speeds. Essentially if you have a short commute this car can be driven in the same way you would a normally aspirated car but only via the battery, making it incredibly fuel efficient. Unlike a full Battery electric vehicle, the PHEV driver doesnt need to worry about longer journeys and having to plan stops, it can completely rely on its petrol engine full time if required. You get all the benefits of EV driving (over short ranges) and none of the disadvantages, this truly is a great way to begin a journey into alternative fuelled cars. Whats a little more unique about the Discovery Sport is that unlike most plug in hybrids, this car can support a CCS charge connection enabling the driver to access rapid charging for longer journeys should they choose to., Finished in the stunning Santorini Black, complimented with the matching gloss black trim and subtle matte anthracite 20 inch alloy wheels its a real head turner. Inside, occupants are treated to a high-quality materials, synonymous with the Landrover brand.
