Review: 2018 Land Rover Range Rover HSE Diesel

[@CarEnthusiast-hx7ie]

Omg I am excited we just bought one today and the delivery is tomorrow :)

[@brandonjohnson7851]

Any issues

[@thenotoriousc8846]

Any issues or you just want to clout in here

[@ryanlittleton5615]

Reliability wise I feel the powertrain (engine, trans) will be totally fine, Jaguar's AJ series V6 and V8 engines have proven to be pretty reliable overall over the years. And the diesel is a Ford Lion engine that dates back to 2004, so in theory the diesel should be reliable as well. And all engines use the ZF 8-speed, nuff said there. However the electronics, probably not. Still the King though.

[@handlealreadytaken]

Why so many pictures of the car on the displays. It’s like having pictures of only yourself on your desk at work.

[@motto7312]

4:24 you can actually customize the navigation and many other things like music your listening to to be displayed on The gauge cluster.

[@jeremeylin4805]

I only have 2018 Range Rover and there is Apple CarPlay you just have to plug it in with your phone to activate it

[@2580robocop]

If that’s 3 inches my girlfriend has been lying to me for years

[@stephenlane9168]

😂😂🤣☺️

[@runninwildwithmilwaukeebuck]

Matts' face looked like he was disappointed in the acceleration lol

[@ktpinnacle]

JLR still holding out on Carplay. Why? And still some delay in the screen responsiveness. Why on a premium vehicle?

[@ramzitabbara2639]

Thanks for reviewing this Ford Explorer Matt!

[@user-zm7de9fc9x]

Happy Robins even though Fords are unreliable, they’re still much more reliable than this money pit.

[@CarEnthusiast-hx7ie]

- dude dont get triggered because you cant afford it

[@user-zm7de9fc9x]

Bla bla Triggered? Why would I get triggered from this depreciating, unreliable junk? These junks depreciate so bad on our markets.

[@CarEnthusiast-hx7ie]

- I have one and I dont think that its junk its just better

[@ktpinnacle]

More interested in the Sport version of the diesel, but thanks for the review of it's big brother!

[@aidanbegovic9584]

@6:32 there's literally a "knob" in the centre console. It's the big thing in the offroad panel.....

[@Tahvyy]

I think there’s a better meridian sound system as a option.

[@ImagineRecordings]

12:49 While your test here (pulling away from a Stop sign/light, then increasing acceleration out of 2nd or 3rd gear) is certainly more realistic in daily driving, to really get a feel for the power/torque of this engine, you'd probably want to test it from a dead stop in CommandShift (M) mode (clutchless Manual). Then use the -/+ paddle shifters on the left/right of the steering wheel to confirm you're starting from 1st (S1) gear. CommandShift is without a doubt, one of my favorite features of our Rovers. I might be mistaken on how this particular Range Rover works as I'm not especially a fan of post-1995 Range Rovers in general, so my knowledge is limited about them, but that's how Manual shifting works on our Disco 4/LR4 HSE Lux'es (though our Discos have the shifter knob, not the paddles. lol). Anyway, I'd bet you'd get a very different pull and feel some pretty nice G forces from a dead stop in CommandShift. 🚙⚡😎

[@DarshaunSmithProductions]

Yes, a new video. Keep um coming Matt!! Great content

[@BRIANBOBCHAPMAN]

COOL Review: 2018 Land Rover Range Rover HSE Diesel

[@jakes5530]

How would you compare the ride in this to the navigator black label?

[@zackeryjones2314]

Great review matt keep it up👍👍

[@romanomatic867]

Thanks for the review!

[@davejackson3869]

What’s the biggest maintenance difference n diesel vs gas? I’m a gas guy and no nothing about diesel. Would it be a pain to maintain ? I have zero patience

[@kylek2794]

I know they're called headrests but who actually rests their head on them while driving...

[@007cheeesepuff5]

So are these newer ones actually reliable or no?

[@bzo218]

hahaha! i have a range rover sport and you can definitely customize the center layout in the dash. the reason why it defaults to a picture of the car is because its BRITISH ELECTRONICS! it works most of the time but sometimes it just stays on the picture of the car lmao.

[@yadvindergakhal4294]

What impressed you more with luxury and comfort. This or the Navigator?

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Navigator.

[@jasonjets7342]

2018 and doesn’t have apple car play??? Are you sure? It’s not wired apple car play?

[@stephenlane9168]

Nice review Matt. I love Rangeys. I only buy them now (UK & NZ) 👌 I’ve subscribed for future content 👏

[@pira.kathir]

Hey, do you think you'll be able to get your hands on the new Acura NSX? Would love to see you do an acceleration in that thing... lauch control

[@Montblanc1986]

Are the body panels aluminum?

[@iLaughWhileYouRage]

who would love to see a range rover svr review!

[@johnpierson2737]

Wish they replaced that speed limiter with a cruise control system instead

[@lilbandspola]

Nice review bro

[@hubsanrcproductions7222]

Hey Matt why isn't Dave Erickson on Everyman Driver listed as one of the best car reviewers of the Automotive Video Association...?

[@adidas7525]

Good stuff

[@neverobey1477]

The only thing i hate about diesel cars is the tractor sound the engine makes! A luxury vehicle shouldn't sound like that!!

[@GrimmReapa]

#mattmaranmotoring The hdmi is for plugging your phone in to watch movies.

[@swimmer5886]

Out of curiosity, why Portland for all the AVA meets?

[@MattMaranMotoring]

The logistics just work out best there for all the presenters and car companies.

[@dylanchalmers6231]

+Matt Maran Motoring the ford explorer looks like a range rover in the front end

[@604h22a]

100K + but it doesn't have rear dvd screen?

[@devinwilliams3489]

It is an option, 100k really isnt that much. It wont compete with some other suvs price for luxury feature set wisebecause some others are very basic designs mechancially

[@M-.-Jones]

Is there any video of the AVA awards this year? Seem to remember seeing a video of one last year.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

The spring event doesn’t give awards, we will in the fall though and will do another group video then.

[@BobThe9534]

Review a Toyota Sienna

[@DevPack]

Rather have the new Navigator

[@jasonnguyen680]

That doesn’t belong in the same class. A people carrier vs a 5 seater

[@ersklordy]

You can have map on between speedo

[@weirdshibainu]

I would always have the nagging thought that any Land Rover would strand me at the most inopportune time. Too bad they're so beautiful.

[@hmoudamanasra2108]

When will you review the lexus LX570

[@johngaudet6316]

Total opposites in reliability. Lol

[@grnpnzer]

I'm sure glad it started right up...would have been awfully embarrassing for Tata motors if it hadn't

[@hindeemalkee8227]

i have a 2016 range rover supercharged i hate the seats really firm really bad seats

[@GunsAndRovers]

Acceleration is unimpressive 12:51. I'll stick with my supercharged V8.

[@Sum_Ting_Wong]

Is this Matt Maran from ChicagoCarsDirect? What happened to your voice?

[@schellingrs]

Reliability is not there. It will break down leaving you stranded. I would choose a Japanese counterpart instead. Good review Matt! And please, use a tape measurement , that wasn’t 3 inches, maybe 5. Keep up the great work!

[@kiahweelee9994]

schellingrs Well said. I'm having a JLR and suffering.

[@ktpinnacle]

Even under warranty?

[@commenthere3505]

7 inches

[@ushittyuglylc5037]

@@ktpinnacle they can't AFFORD one, JUST JEALOUS, they drive Korea SHITTY l plastic look

[@kiahweelee9994]

JLR reliability and quality are horrendous.

[@nelesco]

2018? The exterior does not date well at all IMO.

[@Adesh886]

Great

[@carlosorlandochamorro2109]

Sos una máquina de hablar.

[@4liter]

My 19 has apple car play 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@dylanybarra5096]

Am I the only one who the thinks the exterior looks like it belongs in 2006?

[@2580robocop]

Dylan Ybarra yeah

[@imaniguana]

Really OLD looking. Yuck.

[@reptarthetrx2408]

Matt you getting too fancy for us. I remember when you only could afford top ramen for breakfast lunch and dinner.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Don't worry, I just post a little of everything. Last week it was a Hyundai.

[@serkanister3620]

Stop watching when you mentioned "ovet 100.000" lol

[@justin8758]

How are these things status symbols? They’re unreliable and show a lot of cheap plastic in the interior yet every lemming with more money than sense wants one.

[@ushittyuglylc5037]

Bullcrap, ONLY Japanese car show lots of cheap plastic in the interior, NOT theRR

[@PreciseVids]

You should be a sales guy, you never point out any flaws in a car. Ex; you say the seats are not sporty, but then you say they're great. This is why I like dougs channel more, he doesn't give a fuck about what car companies, sponsors, fans, etc think. If something is wrong he says it & he doesn't soften up the critique.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

You must have missed the pros and cons list for each section. I'm always honest in my reviews, but I can give constructive criticism instead of bashing a vehicle just for views. And if you think I'm never critical, watch my G-Wagon review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIa2coGteNBkeJI

[@williamheinsinger7390]

$$$$$$$

[@knifetoucher]

Problem with Range Rovers these days is that they are owned by a 3rd world country. They have lost their prestige.

[@SamsMotors]

You talking about India or Britain? I'd accept either answer post Brexit to be fair!

[@knifetoucher]

Tata is Indian.

[@ryanlittleton5615]

HUGE JACKMAN The cars are still designed, engineered, and built in Britain. To be honest TATA is the best thing to ever happen to JLR.

[@knifetoucher]

Ryan Littleton Not really, they went the way of Maserati and are making upper-middle class soccer mom cars. The only cars they'd make that don't immediately depreciate like 20% as soon as they leave the lot will be the Defender whenever they start making them again.

[@ryanlittleton5615]

HUGE JACKMAN They never went the way of Maserati at all. For one there's not parts sharing with Dodge Darts here. And they're not doing anything different (except for the Evoque, Discovery Sport and Velar) than what they've ever done, except now actually good. I promise you every current Land Rover (and Jaguar) is designed, engineered, and built in Britain. As far as the 20% goes, that's literally every high end luxury car on the market except for Lexus perhaps.

[@carlosorlandochamorro2109]

Bla bla bla. Cansas.

[@atx-cvpi_99]

Very unreliable.

[@aidanlee2871]

Ooooh don’t buy it

[@ushittyuglylc5037]

Y, BEST SUV ever
