New Range Rover, orders start ... 7-seater 3-row seats and PHEVs are also available

Jaguar Land Rover Japan has started accepting orders for the new Land Rover "Range Rover", a Land Rover luxury SUV, from January 17th.

The Range Rover is a model that has established the category of luxury SUVs, and has been leading the luxury SUV segment for more than 50 years with its comfort and ability to run on all terrain. The new Range Rover, the fifth generation, has evolved into a model that combines modernity and beauty, sophisticated technology and seamless connectivity while inheriting its DNA.

◆ Design that defines modern luxury

The new Range Rover features three distinctive lines (roof, waist and sill) that have been passed down from generation to generation, a short overhang, a clamshell bonnet, a prestigious front end, an upright windshield and practicality. It inherits the DNA that can be recognized as a Range Rover at a glance across generations, such as a split tailgate and a rear with a tapered shape like a boat tail.

Equipped with a newly designed front grille and air intake, a seamless waistline created by the newly developed waist rail finisher that has been made inconspicuous, a smooth surface, and a vertical rear lamp that does not notice its existence until it lights up. The clean design, which looks like it is carved from a single block, also contributes to the realization of an air resistance coefficient (Cd value) of 0.30.

◆ Interior that can be selected from various materials and finishes

In addition to the traditional high-quality leather, you can choose from a variety of materials and finishes, such as ultra-fabric, which is an innovative textile that feels good to the touch, and wool-blend textile, which was jointly developed with luxury textile maker Kvadrat. In addition, cutting-edge technology and sophisticated design are fused to create a space that looks like a sanctuary.

In the spacious and spacious room, there are two 11.4-inch HDs, including the latest infotainment system "Pivi Pro" equipped with a newly developed 13.1-inch floating full HD touch screen with haptic (tactile) feedback function. A rear entertainment system consisting of a touch screen and an 8-inch rear seat touch screen controller, a tailgate event suite with speakers and lighting, and other features that enhance convenience. In addition, new functions such as the 3rd generation new active noise cancellation and "Air Purification System Pro" that provides a clean and comfortable interior space will be adopted for the first time to provide a quiet and clean interior space.

◆ A lineup of PHEVs with a cruising range of 100km

The new Range Rover uses the completely newly designed "MLA-Flex (flexible Modular Longitudinal Architecture)" to achieve unparalleled running performance, agile handling, and the highest level of sophistication. MLA-Flex is designed for all powertrains, including internal combustion engines (ICEs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), and full-battery electric vehicles (BEVs). In addition, a new PHEV model that combines a 3.0-liter in-line 6-cylinder gasoline engine and a 105kW electric motor is also available. The maximum cruising range on EV is 100km (WLTP value).

The running ability has also greatly evolved. Lightweight and compact 5-link rear axle using advanced air springs, twin valve monotube damper, all-wheel steering, dynamic response pro, etc. are adopted for the first time. Controlled by Integrated Chassis Control (ICC), it realizes the off-road driving ability and gentle ride quality unique to Range Rover.

◆ First setting for 3 rows and 7 seats

There are two body types, standard wheelbase (SWB) and long wheelbase (LWB). In addition to the 4-seater (SV LWB only) and 5-seater seat layouts, Range Rover's first 3-row 7-seater (LWB only) is available. The third row is also a full-size seat, equipped with semi-aniline leather seats, 4-zone climate control, power seats, seat heaters, task lighting, USB sockets, and intelligent seat folds as standard equipment.

Design details and options exclusively for SV are available, and two-tone seats and ceramic materials are used for the first time. There are two design themes, "SV Serenity" and "SV Intrepid", and a four-seater "SV Signature Suite" is also available.
