World First as a Range Rover Sport PHEV Climbs to China's Heaven's Gate Trailer
par Auto Moto TV LLC
A dizzying 99 turns and 999 daunting steps didn't stop the new Range Rover Sport PHEV from completing a world-first at one of China's most famous landmarks. The petrol-electric performance SUV has become the first vehicle to climb the stairs to the natural rock arch of Heaven's Gate. The challenge began at the bottom of the legendary 11.3km Tianmen Mountain Road (known as the Dragon Road). The showroom standard Range Rover Sport P400e took on the demanding course, with Panasonic Jaguar Racing's Ho-Pin Tung behind the wheel and the Terrain Response 2 system in Dynamic mode. At the summit of the road, the Formula E driver optimised Terrain Response for the second part of the challenge, conquering the towering 45-degree staircase of 999 steps leading to China's legendary Heaven's Gate using a combination of Ingenium petrol and electric battery power.
