But even more dramatic changes have been made under the skin. One Land Rover insider told us: "On or off road, this car will outperform all of its rivals and any of our current products." Entry-level cars will offer a choice between 3.5-Iitre V8 petrol and 2.7-litre diesel V6 units. Flagship cars will be powered by a Jaguar-sourced 4.2-litre V8 tuned to deliver great-er torque. All three engines will be mated to a six-speed gearbox.
While the entry-level machines will have coil-sprung suspension, the range-topper features air-suspension, plus an advanced stability control system called e-traction. The chassis will also form the basis of a smaller, sportier model aimed at the BMW X5. Known as the Range Sport, this is due for launch in 2005.
Great choice of versatile vehicles for the drive of your life..
