That looks sick. I would definitely take something like that with me to the Paris-Dakar rally.

Probably a hint of what the next Range Rover Sport will look like. Very nice.

Paris Dakar??? Wouldn't you rather take something reliable??? Maybe with some performance, like a Cayenne? Not a gutless, overpriced POS that will fall apart if you look at the wrong way and will depreciate faster than anything that moves???

i would take my Hummer h3, and dont start on criticism until you have owned one. it is a HUGE improvement on the H2. and offers better everything over any other SUV. i mean people in a $350000 ferrari stare at it when i drive by. you dont get that in a g klass....or a porsche or this spiced up freelander

you don't buy a G Class for people to stare at you. people stare at a Hummer 3 and wonder why the hell someone bought that piece of crap.

This is much better looking than the Cayenne, G Class & the Hummer H3. Just an opinion

i was hoping for this to be based on the Freelander but it seams they want to make it compete against the X6. at least i can hope that the Audi Q3 will be good looking.

Wow, it's the most expensive developing car in the history next to the Veyron, at this price the UK gov should pu the union jack on the hood instead of the Range one, and yeah Tata sure know to do business, buys a company for a few billion and then begs 27 billion from the UK gov.

I just took delivery of a new 2008 Full Size Range Rover. I was told that the current model is getting a slight nip/tuck for 2010, and a new model will come out at the end of 2011 as a 2012 model. I LOVE the way the current Range Rover looks. Classic, massive, iconic and ?ber-cool. I also love that since the Range Rover 2002+ was designed and made under BMW control, quality is quite high (especially for being a Land Rover:) I feel like I am driving a really posh, big X5! I tried 2 new X5s (2007 & 2008) and reliability was complete rubbish, and materials felt so cheap & plasticky. Not with the Range Rover...everything feels so high quality. I like that so many parts come from the old X5 and 7 Series. The leather is amazing, the wood is beautiful, the controls & plastic pieces couldn't feel better. The Rover rides amazing too, it really feels like a 4x4 S-Class. I hope the new Range Rovers are not going to be some light, thin and Eco piece of junk! Not all of us want to drive around in a tin car Prius!!!

It is pretty clear that Land Rover, by'badging as Range Rover', wants to charge as much as they can for it. I think it's amazing the sort of greed these motors companies work on. The LRX was discussed and talk about by many as being on the same competitive segment of the market as Audi TT given the LRX's dimension, size and likely appeal. Does Land Rover seriously expect people to pay Range Rover prices for a "Small Crossover" based on it's entry level model Freelander's platform?

tasteful design , indeed . no more slab-sided flanks here and there . i bet the shape would return a very slick drag coefficient figure
