The Land Rover LR4 delivers phenomenal off-road capability, luxury, comfort and panache. Its high-tech V8 engine offers an abundance of power and torque, although gas mileage is low because of the LR4's weight and shape. The ride is exceptionally smooth, handling good, considering its size, brakes are big, and safety is at the top of the heap. The interior materials and comfort are first class, and cargo capacity with the fold-flat second and third rows massive. The Land Rover LR4 is simply untouchable in its off-road and foul-weather capability.

New for 2011 are enhancements to the Terrain Response system, including Hill Start Assist and Gradient Acceleration Control. Bluetooth phone connectivity is now standard, while a Vision Assist Package is available, as is a 7-Seat Comfort Package. The LR4 HSE gets a rearview camera.
