2011 Land Rover Range Rover
MSRP: $78,835 – 94,615
Review Summary:
Only one ride can take you off-roading all day and then be valet parked at the opera at night. This is it.
Review:
Two engines are offered with the luxury 2011 Land Rover Range Rover SUV. The first V8 engine delivers 375 hp and goes from 0 to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. The supercharged version produces 510 hp and gets to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds. Towing capacity for both engines is 7,716 pounds with a braked trailer. Available safety aids include adaptive cruise control, emergency brake assist, blind-spot monitoring, automatic high-beam assist and surround-camera system. The Range Rover’s patented Terrain Response system modifies the response of the engine, transmission, differentials, dynamic systems and air suspension. The multimode system maximizes traction and control in a variety of driver-selectable settings including those for driving through grass, gravel, snow, mud, ruts, sand and rock.
Key Features:
- The flagship of the Range Rover family
- As comfortable traipsing across a cow paddock as it is rolling up to an opera house valet
- Believe it or not: This beast will climb almost anything and ford rivers with aplomb
- Not a sports car. High center of gravity can make you feel "tipsy" at times
- It is the envy of the SUV set, having created the agri-swank segment
