the range rover is one of the most
influential vehicles of all time
one could consider it the first proper
luxury suv that fancy people could drive
to work and out on the town
its success and cultural resonance is a
major reason land rover became an
independent brand
and it's no coincidence four of land
rover's seven vehicles are branded as
range rovers
this 2022 range rover has a pretty
familiar look to it
squint slightly and you'd have a hard
time telling it apart from the outgoing
car
its headlights are near identical to the
outgoing range rover although they're
fitted with all led tech as standard
across the range
it does get a new front bumper design
though and posha sv versions get a model
specific grille design
there's a short and long wheelbase
version of the range rover but visually
speaking they're pretty similar albeit
with a noticeably longer rear door on
the long wheelbase models
you'll get 20-inch alloy wheels as
standard with the option of colossal
23-inch wheels
apparently the latter is no heavier than
the old car's 22-inch alloys
the range rover sports a radical new
look at the rear
ultra-thin brake lights are connected by
a bit of translucent trim stretching the
width of the boot
there are no visual exhaust pipes either
and a subtle roof mounted spoiler neatly
covers the rear windscreen wiper
although the new range rover's exterior
looks fairly familiar in places the
interior is dramatically different
for starters you'll spot a very modern
steering wheel with a neat dual spoke
design laden with touch sensitive
buttons the dashboard is covered by full
width air vents and sitting in the
center of it all is a new 13-inch
touchscreen infotainment system
this houses land rover's new pivi pro
software which not only supports
wireless apple carplay and android auto
but amazon's alexa too
as you'd expect you've got a range of
leather to pick from here designed to be
more like furniture in your home but
also a new fabric option that is said to
emit less 75 co2 when being produced
than conventional leather
it contains wool so it isn't completely
vegan friendly though
as standard the range rover is a
five-seater but you can choose to fit
long wheelbase versions with an extra
third row of seats for the first time to
turn it into a seven seater

under the hood you've got a choice of
petrol and diesel engines for the new
range rover as well as a pair of plug-in
hybrids
both diesels are 3.0 liter straight six
units with mars hybrid technology
strapped on to boost fuel economy as for
petrol engines you have the choice of a
3.0 liter straight 6p 400 and a 4.4
liter v8 in the p 530
both plug-in hybrid options use a 3.0
liter straight six linked up to an
electric motor
these p440e
and p510e models both use a 38.2
kilowatt battery too with a claimed
electric only range of 62 miles
