The power output is 600 hp, coming from two electric motors. The vehicle accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, which is faster than the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. The gross battery capacity is slightly over 100 kWh. [4] [1] Multiple journalists made references to the Range Rover brand, either in a positive or a negative sense, when describing the vehicle.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Compact sport utility vehicle</span> Type of SUV sized between a mini SUV and a mid-size SUV

A compact sport utility vehicle or compact SUV is a class of small sport utility vehicles that is larger than mini SUVs, but smaller than mid-size SUVs. However, there is no official definition of the size or dimensions for this market segment. Moreover, some manufacturers have marketed the same model name on different sized vehicles over time. The most common distinction between versions of crossover automobiles and compact-sized SUVs is that the first is based on a car-based unibody platform, while an SUV uses the unibody with welded-in ladder frame or body-on-frame chassis commonly used on trucks. However, manufacturers and common usage has blurred the two terms. Many recent vehicles labelled as compact SUVs are technically compact crossovers and are built on the platform of a compact/C-segment passenger car, while some models may be based on a mid-size car (D-segment) or a B-segment platform.
