The LR4 is fresh from a total redesign for 2010. For 2011 Cheap Air Force 1 White , Land Rover LR4 has been further upgraded with extra technologies.
New for 2011 are enhancements to the Terrain Response system designed to further boost off-road capability. Amongst them are the addition of Hill Commence Assist, and Gradient Acceleration Control, which helps preserve downhill speeds on rough or slippery terrain when Hill Descent Control isn’t set. Also, Bluetooth phone connectivity is now regular on 2011 LR4 models. A new Vision Assist Package for is accessible for 2011 LR4 HSE models that includes: HID headlamps, Adaptive Front Lighting System (swiveling headlights), Automatic High Beam Assist, a Surround Camera System, power-folding mirrors, Trailer Assist Cheap Air Force 1 Off White , and Trailer Hitch Assist. The 2011 Land Rover LR4 HSE now comes regular having a rearview camera. A brand new 7-Seat Comfort Package is offered for 2011 models, and considerable changes have been created to many options packages.
Known as the Discovery 4 within the rest of the world, the LR4 is often a midsize luxury sport utility, a class that includes the Lexus RX 350, Mercedes-Benz GLK, Audi Q5, Acura MDX, and BMW X5. The LR4 seats five but can seat seven when equipped with a third row.
The Land Rover LR4 and Range Rover Sport share platforms, powertrains Cheap Air Force 1 Shoes , drive systems and sophisticated suspensions. The LR4 comes regular with slightly much less luxury equipment, though most of the differences can be handled with possibilities. The LR4’s wheelbase is far more than five inches longer than the Sport’s yet the LR4 is only two inches longer overall. The LR4 has short front and rear overhangs to steer clear of damage in rugged terrain.
The LR4’s looks are distinctively Land Rover. It’s a happy, familiar shape that manages to pull off both boxy and, thanks to rounded edges at each and every chance, svelte if not sleek.
Inside the cabin, the LR4 is often a total success in terms of comfort, luxury and utility. Every thing is lush to the eye and hand, along with the top quality of the interior supplies is really a high as it gets, beautifully fit and finished. Top quality is much better now than it was within the early days of the Discovery.
Underway Cheap Air Force 1 , the LR4 is extremely comfortable and quiet. We were impressed in the course of our test drives of the 2010 model in Scotland and, most recently, off-road in the 2011 LR4 in Colorado. We expected no much less, naturally, as the LR4’s capability off road is nothing short of phenomenal. Its suspension articulation coupled with the latest in traction control technologies permit the LR4 to creep over extremely rugged terrain, the worst off-road trails, probably the most primitive of roads, and in all kinds of weather.
The Land Rover LR4 comes having a 5.0-liter 32-valve V8 (new for 2010) with direct injection and variable camshaft timing, creating 375 horsepower and 375 foot-pounds of torque. The 6-speed automatic transmission shifts sharply Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Sale , and has Normal, Sport and Manual modes. The LR4 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in only 7.5 seconds, a sprightly pace given the LR4’s weight of about 5850 pounds (and given the Discovery’s reputation as offering decidedly unsprightly acceleration).
All LR4 models come with full-time all-wheel drive having a selectable low range, despite the fact that it’s an understatement to describe the Land Rover’s state-of-the-art traction-control system so just. For off-highway travel, the electronic two-speed transfer case might be shifted on the fly. But the magic is within the Terrain Response System, with its five settings: Highway, GrassGravelSnow, MudRuts, Sand Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Blue , and Rock Crawl. All you have to do is look out the windshield, choose the right setting for the terrain, and also the LR4 will coordinate all of its off-road technology accordingly, including setting the suspension height. If you would like to drive to Tierra del Fuego, 1 of these could be an excellent selection.
The LR4 meets the government’s ULEV2 emissions requirements, meaning it is greener than required by law. It’s no economy vehicle, nonetheless, with an EPA rating of 12 City and 17 Highway miles per gallon.
The LR4 will be the most recent in an evolution of Discovery models that benefitted from the upmarket Range Rover chassis. Launched in the UK in 1989, the Land Rover Discovery was introduced in the U.S. in 1994. The Discovery Series II replaced it for 1999 and was a substantial improvement. When the Discovery three was launched in April 2004 it was dubbed LR3 in North America to emphasize the Land Rover brand. The LR4 Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Red , launched as a 2010 model, can be a heavily updated version of the LR3, and is marketed as Discovery 4 in other parts of the world.
