2014 Land Rover Range Rover Long-Term Arrival

One Year: By Angus MacKenzie | Photos By Motor Trend Staff | From the April 2014 issue of Motor Trend  |   Jeep might have invented the upscale off-roader with the Grand Wagoneer, but Land Rover turned it into an art form. Literally. An example of the original Range Rover was once exhibited in the famous Musée de Louvre in Paris. Range Rover remains the benchmark vehicle in the luxury SUV segment, offering a combination of on-road comfort and off-road capability Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, and Porsche luxury SUVs can't match. Our new long-term Range Rover is the entry-level car in a six-model lineup that starts at $83,545 and stretches to $142,995. Like the $88,545 HSE that will likely be the volume-seller here in the U.S., the base Range Rover is powered by JLR's 3.0-liter supercharged V-6, which develops 340 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. It's five grand cheaper than the HSE because it's fitted with 19-inch wheels instead of 20s, has a different grade of interior trim, and doesn't get the panoramic sunroof. Not having all that hefty glass up top will help the handling. Dealer Pricing Research & Reviews Loan Quote Select Make Select Model
