It is already available for 135,550 euros.

Land Rover has opted for a continuous line and evolution in the aesthetic section, which looks more modern, but maintains a sense of familiarity. The brand itself signs that the model “is defined by its three lines, which remain faithful for generations: the low roofline, the solid profile and the raised running boards”. Its design also helps it achieve an aerodynamic resistance of 0.30, the best in its category.

The brand allows its customers to get a Ranger Rover completely to their liking since they can choose between the standard body or the long wheelbase, with interior configurations of four, five, and seven seats, and between three trim levels. (SE, HSE, and Autobiography), to which are added the First Edition –on sale during the first year of marketing– and the SV, with exclusive designs.

Inside, refinement (noise from outside has been reduced to a minimum) is combined with high-quality materials and technology. The Range Rover has a remote software update system, has natural voice commands, and integrates Alexa, the Amazon assistant. On the other hand, the Pivi Pro system has a 13.1-inch curved screen and is compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, while the passenger entertainment system has 11.4-inch screens. In addition, a Wi-Fi generator point guarantees an internet connection for mobile devices.

The model is developed on the MLA-Flex platform and has various solutions to achieve agile behavior, despite being a bulky model.
