Typically, Land Rover introduces a new sport-utility vehicle to the world amid the backdrop of the Scottish Highlands or perhaps the Okavango Delta. The 2012 Range Rover Evoque, on the other hand, made its grand urban debut preening alongside Posh Spice. You see, Mrs. Beckham herself was a consultant in the creation of this new baby Range Rover. Though we're guessing her input had more to do with color combinations than transmission programming, the association alone should tell you that the new Evoque is a bit different from the Land Rover norm. The Evoque features updated underpinnings from the Land Rover LR2, but from that rather disappointing DNA pool, spawns a substantially better vehicle. Rather than the LR2's lethargic and inefficient inline-6, the Evoque gets a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces class-competitive power and fuel economy. All-wheel drive is standard and comes with Land Rover's Terrain Response System. With settings for various on- and off-roading environments, this technology (lifted from the big boy Range Rover) helps the Evoque be more than just a cool car for people who wanna be like Posh Spice.
Land Rover was founded sixty years ago with the simple goal of creating a vehicle that could tackle any terrain. The original Land Rover was designed to be a utilitarian agricultural vehicle and featured a Rover petrol engine, light-weight aluminum chassis and permanent four wheel drive. This unique car quickly became the go-to vehicle for expeditions of exploration throughout the world, establishing a reputation for ruggedness and adventure that remains today. Since then the brand has become decidedly more upscale, but the original idea of building cars with true off-road capabilities remains. Hop into the LR2 and you instantly realize this is not just another small cute ute. The LR2 sits a bit higher off the ground than others in this class and invokes a sense of solidity and off-road capability that most compact SUVs simply can鈥檛 match. Although the LR2 is definitely the small kid in the family, the seat of the pants feel is 100% Land Rover.
Expected to be unveiled at Auto Expo 2020, just five months after global reveal. Will come with the latest BS6-compliant Ingenium diesel and petrol engines. Short wheelbase and commercial models unlikely to be considered for India. Despite a domestic market slowdown and production woes due to Brexit, no, Tata will not jettison the Jaguar and Land Rover brand. This year, Land Rover finally showed us the new Defender which has got its most comprehensive update since 1990. The car was launched on September 10 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It features an all-new design language and will be available internationally in two variants: the Defender 90 short wheelbase and the Defender 110 long wheelbase. The latter has been spotted testing in India fully camouflaged. In the international market, the Defender has two diesel and one petrol engine option. It remains to be seen which of these will be on offer in India. We expect it to be showcased at the Auto Expo 2020, with prices in the range of Rs 60 lakh to Rs 75 lakh. The new Defender has an all-new boxy exterior and a luxuriously appointed interior. The spied test mule was wearing a heavy suit of camouflage, which hid major design features especially in the rear, but the Defender鈥檚 shape is instantly recognisable ahead of the B-pillar. Land Rover claims that the hardy interior furnishings will be as easy to clean as the last Defender, though they are much more high-end than before, with all the kit seen in other modern Land Rover vehicles. The new Ingenium engines are the diesel D200 and D240, which make 203PS and 244PS respectively, and the P300 petrol engine, which makes 304PS of power. There is also an inline-six-cylinder P400 engine, which comes with a mild-hybrid powertrain. All the engines are expected to be BS6-compliant.
