Land Rover is introducing a comprehensive suite of updates to the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport for the 2015 model year.
The potent SDV8 now produces 337bhp and 546lb/ft with a fuller torque curve from 1,700 to 3,300rpm thanks to detailed calibration changes.
This improves in-gear acceleration by up to 6.5% from fifth to eighth gear, ensuring effortless overtaking ability and enhanced towing capability.
The ZF 8HP70 eight-speed automatic gearbox has been re-engineered with a revised torque converter incorporating a twin-spring damper.
Despite such a large increase in torque, the SDV8’s fuel economy and CO emissions remain unchanged at 32.5mpg and 229g/km of CO.
Updated puddle lamps now project each vehicle’s silhouette on to the ground at night to light the way for occupants.
Fixed panoramic roofs with power blinds are available and bring an additional sense of space and light to both vehicles’ luxurious interiors. Meanwhile, for the Range Rover, 19in alloy wheels with a Satin Dark Grey finish introduce a stylish option for buyers wishing to use smaller wheels where conditions and surfaces may prove more challenging.
The 2015 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport are available to order now.
