Mumbai, January 12th
2022.
The
elegant New Range Rover defines modern luxury, providing more refinement,
customer choice and scope for personalisation than ever before.
Range
Rover is the original luxury SUV and has led by example for 50 years, combining
serene comfort and composure with all-conquering capability. The New Range
Rover is the most desirable yet, mixing breathtaking modernity and aesthetic
grace with technological sophistication and seamless connectivity.
Rohit
Suri, President and Managing Director, Jaguar Land Rover India, said: “The
Range Rover sits at the pinnacle of luxury SUVs in India and the new fifth
generation Range Rover ups the desirability quotient significantly higher.”
Land
Rover’s new flexible Modular Longitudinal Architecture underpins every aspect
of this luxury SUV, from its unmatched capability and agile handling to its
peerless refinement. By combining state-of-the-art engineering techniques with
new levels of virtual development and Land Rover’s punishing development
programme, the New Range Rover will deliver new levels of quality.
The
new luxury SUV is available in SE, HSE and Autobiography models. A First
Edition will be available throughout the first year of production, based on the
Autobiography model and featuring a unique specification. It is exclusively
available in a Sunset Gold Satin finish, among a choice of five exterior
colours. Both Standard (SWB) or Long Wheelbase (LWB) body designs are available
with five seats, while the New Range Rover LWB model is available with a third
row for extended comfort for up to seven adults.
Breathtaking
Modernity
The
fifth-generation luxury SUV takes Land Rover’s modernist design philosophy to
the next level, with a contemporary interpretation of its trademark profile to
create an incredible design statement. It continues to lead, bringing
breathtaking modernity, aesthetic grace and sophistication to Land Rover’s
latest flagship.
The
New Range Rover is defined by three lines that can trace their origins back
through the generations; the falling roofline, strong waistline and rising sill
line. These trademark features combine with a characteristically short front
overhang and a distinctive new boat tail rear – complete with practical split
tailgate – to create an elegant profile that conveys Range Rover’s peerless
presence.
The
unbroken waistline showcases Land Rover’s attention to detail as the rounded
edge of the door meets the glass in a simple, clean finish thanks to a
specially engineered hidden waist finisher. The design-enabling technology
combines with flush glazing, hidden-until-lit lighting and precise detailing to
create the impression that the vehicle has been milled from solid.
The
sophisticated surfaces provide a clean and contemporary appearance – and
contribute to a drag coefficient of 0.30, making this the most aerodynamically
efficient luxury SUV in the world.
The exterior colour palette elevates New Range Rover’s elegant
proportions and clean surfaces while the interior options are more sustainable,
responsible and progressive than ever. Customers have a wider choice of
materials and finishes, including innovative textiles and tactile Ultrafabrics™
with a continuation of Land Rover’s pioneering relationship with
Kvadrat™ – Europe’s leading manufacturer of premium textiles. It is
combined with Ultrafabrics™ to create a defining materiality option that is
lighter and generates only a quarter of the CO2 of traditional
leather.
Peerless
Refinement
The
New Range Rover makes every journey an occasion to be remembered, combining
advanced technology with modern luxury to deliver peerless refinement for every
occupant, including those in the new third-row seats. By eliminating unwanted
noises, vibrations and distractions – and reducing the cognitive load on the
driver and passengers – occupants will arrive at their destination feeling
refreshed, even after the longest journeys.
Advanced
speaker technology builds on the fundamental refinement provided by the
MLA-Flex body architecture to deliver serene cabin calmness – ensuring
passengers enjoy a first-class experience. It uses the 1600W Meridian Signature
Sound System to create one of the quietest vehicle interiors on the road, with
additional 20W speakers in the four main headrests for the most immersive sound
experience.
The
third-generation Active Noise Cancellation3 system monitors wheel
vibrations, tyre noise and engine sounds transmitted into the cabin and
generates a cancelling signal, which is played through the system’s 35
speakers. These include a pair of 60mm diameter speakers in the headrests for
each of the four main cabin occupants, which create personal quiet zones
similar to the effect when using high-end headphones.
The
New Range Rover brings new levels of wellbeing to the luxury SUV sector and
Cabin Air Purification Pro is the culmination of this pioneering technology. It
combines dual-nanoeTMX technology for allergen reduction and
pathogen removal, to help significantly reduce odours and viruses, while CO2
Management and PM2.5 Cabin Air Filtration enhance air quality.
The
Range Rover was the first luxury SUV to feature Electronic Air Suspension, in
1992, and the New Range Rover continues this pioneering approach with Dynamic
Response Pro and pre-emptive suspension that uses eHorizon Navigation data to
read the road ahead and prime the suspension to provide perfect responses.
The
new Tailgate Event Suite2 takes the Versatile Loadspace Floor
backrest concept to new heights, combining additional lighting and audio
features to create the perfect vantage pointfor outdoor relaxation.
Seamless
Technology
The New Range Rover maintains its rich bloodline of pioneering
innovation with a suite of technologies designed to effortlessly enhance
convenience, efficiency, refinement and safety. Land Rover’s latest Electrical
Vehicle Architecture (EVA 2.0) is the enabler-in-chief and includes Software-Over-The-Air
(SOTA) updates for more than 70 electronic modules, meaning the New Range Rover
will constantly evolve, improve and remain up to date as it matures.
The New Range Rover elevates Land Rover’s award-winning Pivi Pro
infotainment technology with its largest ever touchscreen. The 33.27 cm (13.1)
curved, floating screen embodies the architectural
lightness of the interior with a minimalist frame design.
Pivi Pro works in harmony with an elegant new semi-floating 34.79
cm (13.7)Interactive Driver
Display, which features new high-definition graphics based around a three-panel
layout that intuitively reflects the design of the Pivi Pro homescreen.
Customers can choose from a variety of configurations, including a conventional
analogue layout, using the steering wheel controls.
Rear passengers can enjoy a new Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
system, which provides adjustable 28.95 cm (11.4)HD touchscreens mounted on the rear of the front seatbacks.
They can be operated independently and support the connection of most devices
with an HDMI port. The 20.32 cm (8)Rear Seat Touchscreen Controller4 mounted in the centre armrest of Executive Class Rear Seats
provides quick and intuitive control for the perfect seating position,
elevating the luxurious rear-seat experience.
Efficient and powerful all-LED lighting is provided on every New
Range Rover, with the new high-definition Digital LED Headlightsproviding a
beam range of up to 500m. They create an exceptional design detail and feature
Signature daytime running lights, animated indicators, Adaptive Front Lighting
and Image Projection technology on start-up, making them the most advanced
headlights ever fitted to a Land Rover.
New Manoeuvring Lights help drivers complete low-speed manoeuvres
in dimly lit surroundings with complete confidence, by creating a carpet of
light around the perimeter of the vehicle, working with the 3D Surround Camera
system to provide effortless manoeuvrability.
Serene
Capability and Composure
The
flagship of the Land Rover family represents the pinnacle of refined capability
thanks to advanced hardware and software systems working in complete harmony,
enabled by the new MLA-Flex body architecture. This unrivalled breadth of
dynamic capability is governed by Land Rover’s Integrated Chassis Control – a
single control system for a suite of advanced technologies that tailor the
vehicle dynamics to suit every mile of every journey, to pre-emptively and
reactively fine-tune the driving characteristics.
Every
New Range Rover features All-Wheel Steering for an effortless drive with
heightened high-speed stability and improved manoeuvrability at low speeds,
ensuring it is equally at home on the open road and negotiating tight urban
streets.
The
electrically operated rear axle provides up to seven degrees of steering angle
and, at low speeds, turns out-of-phase of the front wheels, giving the New
Range Rover a turning circle of less than 11m1–
the smallest of any Land Rover. At higher speeds the rear axle turns in phase
with the front wheels for enhanced stability and comfort.
Fully
independent air suspension isolates the cabin from surface imperfections more
effectively than ever, for serene composure at all times. It combines
industry-leading air springs volumes with twin-valve
dampers – all managed by in-house-developed Adaptive Dynamics control software.
All
of this technology feeds into Land Rover’s award-winning Terrain Response 2
system, which harnesses the various chassis systems to automatically provide
the perfect settings for the surroundings, from a choice of six driving modes,
to minimise driver workload across all terrains. Alternatively, the driver can
select the most appropriate setting manually or, use Configurable Terrain
Response tocreate a bespoke chassis set-up.
Powertrain
Efficiency
The
New Range Rover maintains its compelling combination of effortless performance
and peerless refinement with a comprehensive line-up of advanced six- and
eight-cylinder powertrains.
The
New Range Rover provides the latest mild-hybrid (MHEV)3.0 l petrol engine, delivering power of 294 kW and torque of 550
Nm,and 3.0 l diesel engine, delivering
power of 258 kW and torque of 700 Nm. A powerful new petrol flagship – 4.4
lTwin Turbo V8 delivering power of 390
kW and torque of 750 Nm– ensures increased refinement and performance.
The six-cylinder petrol and diesel
engines feature the latest 48 V MHEV technology which harvests energy usually
lost under deceleration and braking to boost fuel efficiency. The system’s
clever belt-integrated starter motor ensures more responsive and refined
operation of the stop-start system and provides extra assistance to the engine
when accelerating.
