Just a few months before its official reveal, spy photos have spotted a prototype Range Rover plug-in hybrid being tested by engineers.

Being built on the brand’s new MLA platform, the hero SUV for the brand is expected to be launched in early 2022 with a variety of powertrains, including combustion engine, plug-in hybrid and pure electric.

The fifth-generation Range Rover PHEV prototype was also spotted this week in the UK, towing a trailer containing powertrain telemetry equipment by Auto Car

Mandatory stickers and a just-visible charging port give the test mule's electrified powertrain away. Otherwise, like the current Range Rover P400e, it looks like the PHEV will be completely identical to the combustion car, said Auto Car.
