Range Rover 2013

♠ Posted by Admin in , at 08:35
2013 Range Rover has received positive reactions on the web, but many have criticized its close resemblance, especially the light fittings, to the Ford Explorer and the Ford Flex. Ford was the previous owner of the luxury marque and unsolicited comments even accused Ford of duping Land Rover by copying these designs on its cars before the Range Rover could hit the market.
The 2013 Range Rover is the first model to have undergone its entire development post Tata Motors’ acquisition of Land Rover. The company has the put the model through a diet, and as a result, it has shed 317 kg. This was possible by making an all-aluminum unibody structure, the first in the world for any SUV. This incredible weight loss was not aided by downsizing.
And testimony to this claim is the rear legroom that has been increased by 4.7 inches. Off-roading is made possible by the Land Rover “Terrain Response 2 Auto” system fitted to the car. Other features include a premium MeridianTM sound system and a split tailgate. For the North American market, V8 engines paired to a new eight-speed ZF automatic transmission, will be on offer.
Rumor has it that a plug-in hybrid option will join the ranks in the next few years. The new Range Rover will be manufactured at Land Rover’s Solihull plant in the United Kingdom. The new Range Rover is likely to premiere at the 2012 Paris Auto Show which begins late next month and is expected to land in India next year. The 2013 Range Rover was tested in over 20 countries for over a million miles.
With over 4.7 inches more legroom than the outgoing model, the rear occupants benefit from vastly increased space and comfort. The option of a two place rear seating package provides for the ultimate in personalized rear-seat luxury. To deliver the characteristic effortless performance expected by customers, the Range Rover will continue to offer a choice of V8 engines in the North American.
