Land Rover has
unveiled the 2018 Range Rover. Looking instantly recognizable, the updated
model has a new front fascia with a revised grille. The luxury off-roader has
also been equipped with Pixel-laser LED headlights and new taillights.
Bigger changes occur in the cabin as designers added
a new Touch Pro Duo infotainment system that features two 10-inch touchscreen
displays. The company didn't stop there as they installed new 24-way power
front seats, revised switchgear, and updated door panels.
The rear seats are also new as they can recline by
up to 40 degrees and be set to one of 25 different massage programs. Other
highlights include a new 12-inch digital instrument cluster, a 4G Wi-Fi
hotspot, and several new charging ports.
Under the hood, there's a new plug-in hybrid
powertrain that consists of a 2.0-liter four-cylinder petrol engine, an
electric motor, and a 13.1 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. This setup enables the
model to produce a combined maximum output of 404 PS and 640 Nm of torque. In terms of performance, the Range Rover PHEV can accelerate
from 0-60 mph in 6.4 seconds, hit a top speed of 220 km/h, and travel
up to 51 km on electricity alone.
Customers looking for something more powerful can
check out the upgraded SVAutobiography Dynamic which has a supercharged
5.0-liter V8 engine producing 565 PS and 700 Nm of torque.
Thanks to the extra power, the model runs from 0-60 mph in just 5.1 seconds.
The 2018 Range Rover is currently available to order
and U.K. deliveries are slated to occur late this year.
