Hi !

Sorry to hear that. If the vehicle is still going at a "normal" pace at higher engine speeds, I would suspect an electronics bug.
If you got an auto gearbox, is it shifting down properly when needed ?
Anyhow, I would start with a compression test and, if that is ok, I would go check if fuel arrives ok and at the right pressure, and then work my way further tru the electronics, but you will need a facility that owns a "TestBook" computer to do that.
Annette may know more than me about Freelanders: annette@landroverclub.net
I am more of a Land-Rover "Series" guy.

Regards,

Takeo.
