JLR revives Freelander name for new range of electric cars

JLR will resurrect the Freelander name for a new line of electric cars in China - and it plans to eventually export them worldwide. The new models will be built on architecture supplied by the company's joint-venture partner, Chery, which currently builds the Land Rover Discovery Sport, Range Rover Evoque, Jaguar E-Pace and long-wheelbase versions of the XF and XE saloons.

One of these, reports say, will be the M3X platform developed in partnership with Magna International. This structure – used by the Exeed RX and Chery Fulwin T10 SUVs – can accommodate both pure-combustion and plug-in hybrid powertrains, but it is expected that Freelander cars will offer only the latter.
