The Range Rover Sport Electric is shaping up to be one of the more closely watched luxury EV arrivals for Russian buyers, even if its path to market looks likely to be outside conventional official channels.
Expected independent import pricing places the electric SUV in serious flagship territory, with performance figures that put it well beyond a simple zero-emissions conversion of the familiar Range Rover Sport formula.
At a glance
- The Range Rover Sport Electric could reach Russia in spring 2027 through independent importers.
- Its dual-motor electric powertrain is rated at 550 hp and 850 Nm, with up to 609 km of WLTP range.
- Expected pricing is around 22–24 million rubles, with charging access and warranty support likely to be key buyer considerations.
A dual-motor Range Rover with serious torque
The electric Range Rover Sport is expected to use two motors producing a combined 550 hp and 850 Nm of torque.
That torque figure makes it the most forceful Range Rover Sport yet in terms of pulling power, a useful trait for a large luxury SUV where effortless acceleration matters as much as headline speed.
Acceleration from 0–100 km/h is claimed at 4.5 seconds, which puts the model firmly in the high-performance SUV conversation without needing a combustion engine under the bonnet.
For buyers used to Range Rover’s blend of quietness, mass and authority, the electric drivetrain should suit the character of the car rather than work against it.
Range and charging will define the ownership experience
The SUV uses a 118.5 kWh battery, with a quoted WLTP driving range of up to 609 km.
Range Rover also estimates around 535 km in real-world driving, a figure that may be more relevant for day-to-day planning, especially in colder climates and on longer intercity routes.
The headline charging claim is a 10 to 80 percent top-up in 22 minutes, but that depends on access to a 350 kW charging station.
That detail matters in Russia, where the ownership experience will vary significantly depending on where the car is used and how often ultra-fast public charging is available.
Independent imports and warranty questions
Current expectations point to a spring 2027 arrival in Russia via independent importers, with indicative pricing between 22 million and 24 million rubles.
That converts to roughly $262,688 to $286,568, placing the Sport Electric in a narrow buyer set where availability, support and aftersales confidence are as important as specification.
Battery cover is another area buyers will need to examine carefully before signing anything.
In the UK, Range Rover covers the battery for eight years or 160,000 km, but privately imported cars may not receive identical support in Russia unless a seller or third-party provider makes that commitment in writing.

The Range Rover Sport Electric has the numbers to feel like a natural flagship for the EV era, but in Russia its appeal will depend on more than power and range.
For buyers considering one in 2027, the smart move will be to look as closely at charging access, warranty language and importer support as they do at the badge on the tailgate.
