I have one on order and it supposed to arrive sometime next month. At the time of order, I could not spec a hitch for it, and the dealer confirmed they could not order it with a hitch either. For those who happen to have a P550E PHEV, were you able to order one with a hitch, and if not, did anyone by chance have one installed after they received their new PHEV Range Rover?

 

Same issue here in California. While the LR website tells you: "A maximum towing weight of 5,511 lbs27 means Range Rover electric hybrid and Range Rover Sport electric hybrid can handle some of the most demanding of tasks with ease. With the Electrically Deployable Towbar, Advanced Tow Assist, Hitch Assist & Trailer Stability Control, the vehicle exemplifies towing refinement & capability." BUT... you cannot order a RR PHEV with a hitch, and the dealer told me that the could not order one and install it after delivery either. I'm planning to hold out, since the RR SPORT PHEV formerly had the same issue, but now does allow the towing package to be added to a build.

 

I have heard from other P550e owners in Europe that they were able to add the hitch after they received their cars. Makes no sense how LR is doing this. I got mine two weeks ago, and I love the car but I am going to hold off on the hitch. U-haul will install one for free if you leave the car with them in AZ. I am not doing that for now. Since you are closer to AZ than I am, you may want to check into U-Haul in AZ. I am guessing that is where their R&D center is.

 

Anyone have any more inside scoop about the holdup on tow hitches with P550e? Still not available on the configurator or in inventories.

 

Answering my own post here (rookie mistake): there’s some more recent discussion on post-delivery tow hitch installs over at rangerovers.net but nothing much positive to report from LRNA at all.

 

Yes, I have seen the related posts on rangerovers.net. The posts lits all the part numbers need for the addition. I believe it costs somewhere around $3500.00 to do it. I just do not get why LR is not offering this option in the US?

 

So I have the 2025 P550e and I had the same question. I went to the dealership today and they now have a part number for the tow hitch. It is not deployable in the US. The caveat for application is that you need to have the SWB because of the battery placement this will not work on the LWB. If it works the part number is VPLKT0326 or VPLKTO326
