After being delayed a year, the plug-in hybrid powertrain finally launches on 2020 Range Rover models. Known as P400e, the electrified powertrain consists of a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and an electric motor—together they make 398 combined horsepower—and can power the big Range Rover for up to 31 miles on electricity alone. But that's not the only powertrain change for 2020: The base V-6 engine from last year has been replaced with a turbocharged inline-six with electric assist. In the base P360, it makes 355 horsepower and in the HSE P400, it makes 395..

Pros
Looks as expensive as it is, posh cabin, wide range of available engines.

Cons
Clumsy handling, not enough interior storage opportunities, requires a hefty investment.
