**Price:** from £64,695 for the TDV8, £79,995 for the 5.0-litre supercharged
petrol V8.

A new 5.-0-litre supercharged V8 petrol engine producing 510bhp and 461lb of
torque steals the show on the new Range Rover_._
It's man enough to whisk the big off-roader from 0-60mph in only 5.9 seconds
and on to a top speed of 140mph, using six-speed automatic transmission and -
of course - permanent all-wheel drive.

Fuel consumption is claimed to be improved by 7.3 per cent despite the
increase in power over its 4.2-litre supercharged predecessor. The diesel
version continues to be powered by the 3.6-litre TDV8.
Outside, the newcomer takes on styling cues from the Discovery-based Range
Rover Sport, including a new front end incorporating more brightwork and a
redesigned grille, along with new wing vents and revised tail lamps.
Inside, Land Rover claims to have simplified the switchgear while the
instrument binnacle now incorporates a Thin Film Transistor screen, replacing
conventional analogue dials with facsimile analogue dials. The new technology
allows passenger and driver to view different images simultaneously. It means
the driver can check the sat-nav, for instance, while the passenger enjoys a
film.
Other clever new technology includes five external camera lenses allowing the
driver to receive a wealth of information about potential hazards via the TFT
screen while off-roading, towing or just parking.
New "high beam assist technology" automatically switches on the high beam
headlamps when external light levels are low. The system also detects traffic
ahead, automatically switching back to low beam to avoid dazzling other
drivers.
**The verdict:** More bling than before but also faster, more frugal, less
polluting and remarkably competent off-road.
