Good review. Thank you!

[@K03sport]

talk about a silhouette w/no personality...the smoked headlights on black paint give this LR a blob-like appearance. the whole vehicle seems void of emotion...how does the gas engine behave when temps are below 35*F? does it just kick on cold start (cold oil/coolant/cats) or does it go through a warm up cycle beforehand?

[@westnash]

Haven't Range Rovers been one of the least reliable and costly to maintain vehicles on the market for some time? Think about the real cost of one that is 10 years old with 100K miles and you change your mind quickly on buying one.

[@TestDrivenTV]

Like Mercedes-Benz or BMW, you lease these then give them back before the warranty is up. #howitsdone

[@K03sport]

yes, but it's all about parking lot points. besides, ppl only lease LRs, which is why you really only see current models driving around

[@westnash]

Just dont be the one that runs out and buy an off lease, expired warranty model and gets a very expensive surprise.

I love the creative names manufacturers come up with to make people feel better about having vinyl seats in their $100k plus SUV. Vegan Leather? You mean plastic 😂

[@toronado455]

"Non-leather" is funny. But accurate since a lot of that seat upholstery is cloth. I don't know how it started, but putting cloth everywhere seems to be the trend in electrified vehicles. A trend I strongly dislike. I think its function as a sound absorbing material is partly the reason. But there is some Scandinavian aspect to it that has gripped the industry and won't let go. LOL

[@K03sport]

cloth doesn't require heated seats like full leather. sure some seat heat is nice, but cloth takes the cold sting out of the equation...companies are also trying to be more responsible and it's possible, a majority of LR buyers are vegan.

[@bvsuber1]

Scared of their reliability. I have talked to real people about the brand - horror stories.

[@TestDrivenTV]

You lease it while it's under warranty. #howitworks
