On top of that, the P300e comes with a leading hybrid powertrain, its fuel engine and electric motor working together to create robust power, amazing fuel economy and highly efficient energy recuperation.

The world is witnessing a mobility revolution driven by the new energy sector. A new era of “technology supremacy” is unveiled in the auto industry. Chery Jaguar Land Rover is taking active steps towards electrification, and its pioneering battery technologies have made the New Discovery Sport P300e the captain in the electric age.

Its intelligent power management system endows the car with two driving modes – EV mode and Hybrid mode, available for the driver at one touch of the button. The New Discovery Sport P300e is also the only PHEV in its segment that supports both AC and DC charging: the quickest DC charging works at 32kW and gets the car from 0 to 80% charged in just 30 minutes; and the 7kW AC charging can charge the battery from 0 to 100% in 2 hours.

With its dynamic, trend-setting look, beyond the segment interior finish, forward-looking new energy technologies and powerful all-terrain capabilities, the New Discovery Sport P300e is ready to deliver exceptional driving experience and an easy and green lifestyle to the new mid-class families.

Global Systematic Power Sets the Foundation for Chery Jaguar Land Rover to Keep Its Cultivation of the China Market

A superior product can only be created with powerful corporate systematic strengths.

As a highly intelligent and integrated modern factory, the Changshu Plant of Chery Jaguar Land Rover is a global benchmark plant of Jaguar Land Rover. With globally unified manufacturing, technology, supply, management and quality control standards, it has made indispensable contribution to China’s high-end automobile manufacturing. In the production of the new Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e, in order to cater to the special requirements of PHEV components, the Changshu Plant upgraded its intelligent manufacturing and quality control system. With intensive application of big data and industrial Internet of Things, data traceability throughout the manufacturing process of high-voltage parts has been developed. Six new test points for safety regulation have been added to carry out 100% inspection of vehicles. A new online NEV equipment testing and wading inspections have also been introduced to further guarantee the quality of the entire vehicle. The rigorous – sometimes “harsh” standards show Chery Jaguar Land Rover’s unwavering commitment to delivering world-class quality products to users.

Driven by the global quality standards, some parts of Chery Jaguar Land Rover models are imported and assembled in China through global procurement. They follow the global unified procurement standards and procedures. While ensuring product quality, this approach allows Chery Jaguar Land Rover to share the scale benefit of global procurement. With an advanced global supply chain, and a combination of sea, land and air logistics and transportation solutions, Chery Jaguar Land Rover has further improved its corporate operating efficiency to ensure the smooth production and delivery of the new Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e.

Kicking off the second phase of development, Chery Jaguar Land Rover is aiming at driving innovations in management, product design, technology application and digital technology, comprehensively enhancing its brand power and systematic competence.

In this new phase, Chery Jaguar Land Rover will place a bigger focus on voices from China, following the Chinese auto market trend closely and exploring consumers’ practical demands. Chery Jaguar Land Rover manufactures and sells products of two luxury brands. It is a premium automaker that has always upheld a “customer-focused” value. It is committed to cultivating the Chinese market even further, to continue to increase its product development capability with the insights and R&D experiences garnered in the local market.
