Privacy glass

Laminated privacy glass allows rear seat passengers to travel more discreetly and provides increased security by restricting vision into the cabin. It reduces UV light transmission, making the vehicle a safer, more pleasurable place to be. Privacy glass also keeps temperatures at a lower level in hot climates, enabling the vehicles air conditioning system to improve efficiency and performance.

Electric sunroof – tilt/slide glass

As well as giving the vehicle's interior an even lighter, airier atmosphere, the versatility of the electric slide/tilt glass sunroof provides opportunities to enjoy the elements in all types of weather.

Exterior mirrors – auto dimming

Auto dimming exterior mirrors provide a dipping function that detects excessive light and automatically darkens the mirror glass. This reduces glare from the headlamps of other vehicles in dark or low light conditions, improving the driver's rearward vision.

Adaptive Xenon headlamps

The Range Rover front lamps make optimum use of Xenon and LED technology, offering 'automatic on and off' functionality and directional lighting. Aesthetically pleasing, the 'concentric circle' headlamp design communicates a more striking personality.

Automatic High Beam Assist for the new headlamps detects oncoming or followed vehicles to switch between high and dipped beam. The whiter light from the Xenon headlamps, combined with adaptive front lighting, provides exceptional illumination that also moves with the vehicle's pitch and steering direction.

Titan grille mesh finish

The Range Rover now has ever more elegance. A new, larger, three-bar grille imbues it with even more authority. Complemented with a Titan silver finish to the front grille, the diamond mesh design allows for greater air-intake, maximising performance and capability. A unique Noble-plated finish on Autobiography front grille and side vents adds further consummate detail to this gracious vehicle.

Command Driving Position

The renowned command driving position, first established by Defender, is now a central feature of every Land Rover vehicle. It gives greater visibility ahead and of the surrounding environment as well as adding to the driver’s control and feeling of security.

12.3 inch TFT-LCD Virtual Instrument Panel

One glance at the new virtual instrument panel reveals the very latest Thin Film Transistor (TFT)-LCD technology, a stunning advance in the clarity of driver information. The new 12 inch TFT-LCD virtual instrument panel uses the same technology found in high-quality computer laptops and can be both personalised and adapted to suit various driving conditions or personal preference.

During night-time driving, for instance, the TFT-LCD virtual instrument panel's 'torchlight' setting highlights only the essential information on the speedometer and odometer. Additionally, when driving off-road, key dynamic information is displayed in the centre of the TFT-LCD screen, complementing the main Touch-screen display and providing valuable ‘at a glance’ vehicle status.

Heated Leather steering wheel, with multi function switches and cruise control

The multi-function steering wheel has been redesigned with new controls, including two new five-way toggle switches. These toggle switches are used in tandem to easily and intuitively operate a number of vehicle features, including the In Car Entertainment system (left hand switch) and Thin Film Transistor (TFT)-LCD Virtual Instrument Panel (right hand switch).

High grade leather for the steering wheel is further refined by the addition of a metallic Noble finish to the steering wheel spokes. An heated half wood, half leather steering wheel adds richness, visual appeal, and is practical as well as sumptuous. You can also choose a complementing wood and leather gear knob, which is, as with the half wood steering wheel, available in all wood trim finishers dependant on the derivitive selected.

Hill Descent Control (HDC) with Gradient Release Control (GRC)

The combination of Electronic Centre Differential and upgraded Hill Descent Control with Gradient Release Control gives The Range Rover driver total confidence over some of the most precipitous terrain.

When engaged and where a sharp descent is detected, the HDC system automatically engages to achieve maximum grip. Varied brake and acceleration pressure then smoothly release the vehicle down the gradient until the optimum descent rate is reached. All without effort on the driver’s part.

CommandShift® six-speed adaptive automatic gearbox

CommandShift® six-speed Adaptive Automatic Transmission comes as standard and allows manual selection in high and low range. The technology adapts to your particular driving style and the prevailing surface conditions, producing a more responsive performance and smoother gear changes. You can enjoy improved fuel economy through a wider range of torque, plus 10 percent faster shift times with sport shift.

Dynamic Stability Control – Electronic Traction Control

The four-wheel Electronic Traction Control (ETC) monitors individual wheel speeds and cleverly distributes drive to the wheels that have the best traction. Should a wheel begin to spin, ETC instantly sends braking pulses to help slow it down until it grips again. At the same time, torque is applied to the opposite wheel and reduces the speed of the vehicle safely.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

The new 2010 Range Rover has a further refined Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) which provides even earlier identification of vehicles that may move into your path. This third-generation ACC system uses 12 beams to scan the road ahead 10 times every second, making it one of the most advanced systems available. It also offers more progressive deceleration, resets more accurately and is better able to indentify smaller road users, such as motorcycles, against larger vehicles and trucks.
The ACC can be programmed to one of four settings. These are between 1.0 and 2.2 second intervals from the vehicle in front in normal driving conditions and when either Grass, Gravel or Snow are selected on the Terrain Response® dial.
The ACC is also complemented by Forward Alert and Advanced Emergency Brake Assist (AEBA), all working together to help avoid a collision, in the first instance, by giving audible and visual alerts. Should an impact become inevitable, the AEBA with full ABS is triggered. This typically saves up to two-thirds of the time of the normal emergency brake assist system.

Electronic cross linked air suspension

Electronic air suspension with automatic load-levelling comes as standard on The Range Rover. This feature automatically compensates for a wide variety of vehicle loads. The addition of a new control system also means that the variable dampers are adjusted 100 times a second to produce an exceptionally comfortable ride, whatever the road or driving conditions.

Terrain Response®

Land Rover's patented Terrain Response® technology helps the driver confidently conquer gravel, grass, snow, rocks, and tarmac. By simply turning the conveniently positioned dial to the appropriate icon, the engine, transmission, suspension, and traction settings are instantly reconfigured for optimum driveability in all conditions.

The driving technology now takes a further step forward and includes the new Sand Launch Control system. This is designed to help prevent wheel spin and the vehicle 'bellying out' when moving off from a standstill. Once the vehicle reaches the appropriate speed, the slip thresholds are increased to help maintain progress.

Adaptive Dynamics

The new Adaptive Dynamics suspension system provides the best ever Range Rover experience over rough roads by fully utilising the vehicle's long suspension travel to absorb potholes or ruts. It also provides enhanced control at higher speeds while cornering or braking.

The system monitors the road 500 times a second and predicts the driver's actions, constantly fine tuning the suspension settings of each wheel of the vehicle to best suit the terrain. This helps ensure that all occupants are transported in the greatest possible comfort, regardless of the road surface and variations in conditions.

Air bags

Driver and passenger safety is paramount in The Range Rover. This is achieved, in part, through the use of large curtain side airbags, driver and passenger airbags, a driver's knee airbag, plus front seat pelvic and thorax airbags – all incorporated as standard. Additionally, the curtain side airbags feature extended inflation periods that help to protect occupants from side impacts.

Volumetric Alarm

Even though The Range Rover is equipped with some of the most advanced security technology available, it is still reassuring to know that it possesses a sophisticated, multi functional alarm system as a deterrent: Volumetric alarm (against intrusion), tilt sensor (to help prevent theft by towing) as well as a Sounder backed by a separate integrated battery.

Warning triangle

Vital in emergencies and a legal requirement in certain countries.

Electronic Parking Brake (EPB)

Difficult hill starts are a thing of the past with the electronic park brake. Engaged by a simple flick of the switch, it can be released manually or by simply by driving away.

Hard drive navigation system with 7 inch high resolution Touch-screen

Audio upload unit with USB, iPod and jack plug interface

Driver comfort and control is enhanced with new connectivity ports, including a 3.5mm auxiliary socket, USB port, and dedicated iPod®/iPhone® connection, located in the driver's centre armrest.

Operated through a new Portable Audio Interface, the connectivity ports allow audio files from a wide range of sources to be played and controlled through the intuitive 7 inch Touch-screen.

The dedicated iPod®/iPhone® point was designed with Apple, Inc. exclusively for Land Rover, to ensure the device won't come loose from the socket, even in extreme driving conditions. iPod and iPhone are trademarks of Apple, Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.

Touch-screen with dual view technology

The centrepiece of the facia is the high-resolution Touch-screen that's available with the dual view system* (an automotive world first).This allows the driver to use the Satellite Navigation system, while the front seat passenger sees a different view so is able to watch a DVD or TV.

The intuitive interface of the Touch-screen and array of controls lets you command almost every aspect of the vehicle from a single point. This advanced technology has been enhanced further with clearer, more intuitive graphics and is accommodated in a raised centre control panel with an improved, stronger, more contemporary design.

Rear Screen Entertainment Pack

Pack includes DVD player, headphones, remote control. Only available with Logic 7® audio system.

Audio System – Logic 7® Hi-Fi (720 watt, 14 speaker surround sound harman/kardon® system)

Even the most discerning of audiophiles will enjoy the quality of sound inside the cabin of The Range Rover. There's a choice of three premium ICE systems, ranging from the 11 speaker harman/kardon® Logic 7®, to a 1200 watt, 19 speaker system. This simply world class system has its additional high-powered speakers integrated into each of the doors, with another centrally mounted in the facia, delivering increased sound clarity and quality within the same visual design.
This is further amplified by a new Portable Audio Interface, allowing audio files from a wide range of sources to be played and controlled through the new, intuitive 7 inch Touch-screen.
