Dave Larsen Talks Jaguar Land Rovers Commitment to Electric by 2020
Jaguar Land Rover launched its 2019 Range Rover at the LA Auto Show this week. Alyssa Julya Smith caught up with Jaguar Land Rover's Product Planning Manager Dave Larsen to check out some of the cool features on the new model, including hot stone massage chairs in the back seat.
The vehicle is part of the Autobiography collection and the cost can be more than $200,000 for the fully loaded version of the Range Rover. Larsen showed off some of the other features, including 17-plug ports, and automatic doors that open and close with the push of a button.
Larsen also touched on Jaguar's commitment to electric vehicles, and where he thinks the industry will be in the next 20 years. He says that he thinks electric will be the new standard and hybrid cars will be the norm, with many going full electric.
