RANGE ROVER – Awesome Off-Road Test

The fourth generation of the iconic Range Rover line, the new model has been revealed to the world via a dramatic event held at The Royal Ballet School in Richmond, London.
The All-New Range Rover is the ultimate luxury SUV, following the innovative spirit of the original design from over 40 years ago.
The world's first SUV with a lightweight all-aluminium body, the new Range Rover takes the capabilities of the marque's flagship to a new level, with even greater luxury and refinement, enhanced performance and handling on all terrains, and significant advances in sustainability.

Range Rovers are renowned for providing occupants a sensation of serene isolation from the hectic world outside, and the new model has been engineered to meet the highest luxury car standards for refinement.
Meticulous attention to detail throughout the development process has eliminated all unwanted sounds and traces of harshness, and measures like the rigorously optimised body structure, acoustic lamination of the windscreen and side door glass, and new dual-isolated engine mounts have led to a significant reduction in noise levels.
The new chassis architecture is combined with completely re-engineered four-corner air suspension, and together they have enabled engineers to achieve even more luxurious ride comfort and refinement, in addition to transformed on-road handling, with more confident and agile cornering.
With its highly acclaimed line-up of torque-rich engines, the new Range Rover delivers swift and effortless performance. Customers have a choice of two petrol (5.0-litre 375 PS LR-V8 and 510PS LR-V8 Supercharged) and two diesel (3.0-litre 258PS TDV6 and 4.4-litre 339PS SDV8) engines, all of which are now paired with a smooth and responsive eight-speed automatic transmission.
True to the Range Rover DNA, the new model features the unique Command Driving Position, placing the driver in an elevated, upright seating position - typically over 90mm higher than other premium SUVs - to provide a supreme sense of confidence and control.

The all-new Range Rover has been engineered from the ground up to be the most refined, most capable Range Rover ever. With the adoption of the latest body and chassis technologies, the vehicle's all-terrain performance has moved on to another level, both in the breadth and accessibility of its off-road capability, and its on-road handling and refinement.
Amongst the industry-leading innovations is a ground-breaking next-generation version of Land Rover's Terrain Response® system, which analyses the current driving conditions and automatically select the most suitable vehicle settings.
An all-new state-of-the-art lightweight suspension architecture delivers class-leading wheel travel, providing exceptional wheel articulation and composure to deal with the toughest conditions.
Outstanding traction and dynamic stability is provided by the proven Range Rover full-time intelligent 4WD system, with a two-speed transfer box, working in parallel with the sophisticated electronic traction control systems.
The new Range Rover's unmatched breadth of capability is also reflected in its tremendously strong structure with enhanced body geometry for all-terrain conditions, wading depth which has improved by 200mm to 900mm, and its position as the best towing vehicle in its class with a 3,500kg trailer capability.
To ensure exceptional durability and reliability, the new Range Rover has been subjected to Land Rover's punishing on- and off-road test and development regime, with a fleet of development vehicles covering countless thousands of miles over 18 months of arduous tests in over 20 countries with extremes of climate and road surfaces.

My Dad had a Range Rover over 20 years ago, the first diesel turbo, critics hated the engine.That winter it snowed heavily, we went out for a drive in the country, we felt so much safer than the other cars on the road, I remember him leaning out of the window scraping the ice off the windscreen wipers, whilst passing other cars on the motorway.

It works brilliantly. Hardly a challenge for the new Range Rover.

[olis_garage]

are the doors and body panels an option?

[DRTMaverick]

Does the full option come with wheel travel?

[pastohh]

I am expecting this car to start talking in an Austrian accent saying shit like "The Uzi nine millimeter.

[marknius]

Its awesomeness leaves a trail of mpeg artifacts.

[Maniacguy]

You should make the body with tough glass so that inside part can be seen how they work.

[HarmanMotorWorks]

I've heard about 'optional extras', but this is just ridiculous...

[JuicyJaffa]

How many system management faults did they have to subdue before that would run?

[nomad]

It sure is a most comfy of road ride you will find hard to beat in any other of road vehicle.

[LachupacabraRO]

[JohnSmith-pdfz]

Even half a Land Rover is better than anything else.

[baragueye]

C'est la meilleur voiture au monde

[SonyBoy]

Aren't the front lights a bit bigger?

[KevinSoRandom]

The air intake ports are actually on either sides of the hood.

[cowanr]

SWEET! What's even better is that my 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe AWD can do exactly the same thing for $50k less and keep all its bits and pieces in place.
