Chieftain Range Rover exclusive review: New Restomod Classic with V8 PHEV power. In this episode of The Late Brake Show Jonny Smith gets to be the first person to review what is a reborn 4WD classic Range Rover with modern injected Chevrolet 6.2-litre V8 (460bhp/465lbft) driving the rear wheels, and some 270bhp/295lbft of Yasa twin electric motor power driving the front wheels.
