Range Rover has been positioned as a high-performance luxury vehicle by the Land Rover brand. So, yes, it does offer considerable power and speed, especially in more recent model years. All vehicles from 2005 onwards have a top speed of over 200 km/h, and some variants, such as the 5.0 V8 Supercharged ones, can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just over 5 seconds.
There is a variety of output options for Land Rover Range Rover vehicles, powered by 3.0-liter diesel engines. In some variants, they are also being used in combination with full and mild hybrid technologies, creating even more choice alternatives. For non-hybrid Range Rovers output options are 249 Hp, 258 Hp, and 275 Hp; for mild hybrid ones - 249 Hp, 301 Hp, and 351 Hp; and for full hybrid – 340 Hp only.
Land Rover Range Rover is generally not the most fuel efficient option, especially when it comes to non-hybrid vehicles. Their consumption figures (combined) go up to 16.2 l/100 km (14.52 mpg). There are, however, hybrid variants available to help improve efficiency. A full hybrid Range Rover was introduced in the fourth generation range, with fuel consumption of 6.4 l/100 km (36.75 mpg). Plug-in hybrids were added in the following facelift, having fuel economy of 2.8 l/100 km (84.01 mpg).
The Land Rover Range Rover model range does not offer any 7-seat options. Range Rover vehicles all feature 5 seats only.
A 10-inch dual view touchscreen display, powered by Land Rover’s InControl Touch Pro system, has been fitted in the 2017 Range Rover.
It’s no secret that Land Rover, as a brand, has received some bad reputation, when it comes to reliability. Reviews on the Range Rover, however, are mixed, to say the least. Owners are either extremely happy with their vehicles, having no complaints at all, or reporting constant issues and faults, most commonly battery-related, resulting in costly repairs.
