Black and Silver LRX revealed

03rd March 2008

Check out Land Rover’s latest stunning show car – the LRX black and silver. 

Following on from the popular baby-Freelander concept revealed at the Detroit Motor Show in January, the re-modelled Geneva Motor Show star is designed to show just how good the little Landie can look with a range of colours and accessories.

Powered by a 2.0-litre turbodiesel hybrid powerplant, Land Rover claims the LRX is capable of 60mpg fuel economy with emissions of 120g/km

The black and silver model will be unveiled at the first Geneva show press day tomorrow alongside the existing white LRX.

"With its metallic black paintwork, silver roof and precisely detailed exterior features, the second version of the LRX concept is designed to show how well the vehicle can deliver a contemporary example of personalisation," says Gerry McGovern, Land Rover's design director.

When the production version of the LRX appears in 2009, a range of accessories will be offered to allow buyers to customise their cars.

Phil Popham, managing director of Land Rover, added "we've always seen scope for LRX to provide a whole showroom of different models, with a range of powertrains including hybrids and bio-fuel capable engines."
