Hybrid against the other Land Rover Range Rover versions

Why the fuel type changes the number

Hybrids sidestep most emissions failures and tend to do lighter urban miles, though the extra weight tells on tyres and brakes.

On the Land Rover Range Rover specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 90.6%, and this hybrid version sits 9.9 points above the 80.7% model average.

What it means if you are buying one

The hybrid Land Rover Range Rover is the stronger side of this model on MOT data. Still judge the individual car, but the fuel type is a mild point in its favour. Buying a damaged one? run it through the analyzer, check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.

Mileage is part of the answer

The average hybrid Land Rover Range Rover had covered 44,545 miles at test, against 100,030 for the diesel and 104,230 for the petrol and 149,430 for the lpg. That is below average for a car this age, worth a mileage-consistency check since an unusually low reading is sometimes clocking rather than luck.

Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Land Rover Range Rover page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
