Land Rover finally took the wraps off the 2011 Range Rover and brought forth the first details on the new SUV. For 2011, the Range Rover gets a new, class-leading V8 diesel engine, new 8-speed transmission, two significant Terrain Response upgrades, and subtle external styling.
But first things first; the engine. The LR-TDV8 4.4-liter with parallel sequential turbocharging replaces the outstanding LR-TDV8 3.6-liter and delivers a total of 313 HP and 700Nm torque. It is mated to a new, electronically controlled, ZF 8HP70, 8-speed automatic gearbox (available only on the 4.4-liter LR-TDV8 models) and has a fuel consumption of 30.1mpg. The sprint from 0 to 60 mph is made in 7.5 seconds. The top version will still get a 5.0-liter LR-V8, supercharged petrol engine that delivers a total of 510 HP and 625Nm torque and sprints the SUV from 0 to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds.
The exterior gets new ‘Jupiter’ grilles and side vents for the diesel models and, for the interior, Land Rover added optional illuminated treadplates for the front doors, new transmission controls for the diesel model, and improvements to the entertainment system. There is also an available Exterior Design Pack option that gives customers the chance to give their Range Rover a more individual look.
