SML Frontier Automotive Ltd., the sole agents for Jaguar Land Rover in Sri Lanka will soon unveil the Range Rover to the Sri Lankan market. Representing the pinnacle of luxury travel, the Range Rover makes every journey a treasured experience whether driving or being driven.
Conceived nearly 50 years ago for the country set to use on the estate and then drive to the townhouse, Range Rover has continuously evolved to lead the world around it, remaining the peerless luxury SUV.
Today technology drives the new Range Rover’s next major step, with a plug-in hybrid electric powertrain providing sustainable luxury with new levels of efficiency and capability complementing its refinement and desirability. The exterior design has evolved, while heightened comfort and new consumer technologies have been added to the cabin.
Comfort-enhancing functions transform the travelling experience for the driver and passengers. The front seats feature 24-way movement thanks to the new seat frames, with wider and deeper foams as well as heated arm rests. In the rear a completely redesigned cabin and seating layout create a tranquil sanctuary with no compromise to the rear load space.
If you’re working while being driven, up to 17 connection points including domestic plug sockets, USB, HDMI and 12-volt are all available;4G Wi-Fi hotspots for up to eight devices and convenient storage are all designed for the business traveller. Wider, softer seats offer sumptuous comfort. For additional convenience and personalisation, all seat functionality can be controlled via a smartphone app, whether inside or outside the vehicle.
“Our customers are very clear about what they want from any new Range Rover. ‘Don’t change it, just make it better,’ they tell us, so everything we’ve done has been about enhancing our flagship SUV. After nearly 50 years the fourth generation Range Rover is the finest so far, ensuring the original luxury SUV remains the choice for discerning customers the world over,” says Gerry McGovern, Chief Design Officer, Land Rover.
The elegance of the interior has been elevated by the seamless integration of the most advanced infotainment system yet created by Jaguar Land Rover. Touch Pro Duo, codenamed ‘Blade’, combines two high-definition 10-inch touchscreens on the centre console working in perfect harmony. Information can be swiped from one screen to the other, making the layout highly intuitive and engaging to operate, with unrivalled functionality.
“The new Range Rover takes our luxury SUV to new heights, delivering enhanced refinement, luxury and all-terrain capability. The new PHEV powertrain isn’t simply a no-compromise solution – it builds on the traditions of our flagship SUV and delivers heightened refinement and comfort with impressive performance and efficiency,” says Nick Collins, Vehicle Line Director, Jaguar Land Rover.
The new Range Rover, designed and engineered by Jaguar Land Rover in the UK is made specifically for the Sri Lankan market in compliant with vehicle and fuel standards which will be available only by SML Frontier Automotive. The first deliveries will be able from the agents from 2018 onwards with five year service, five year warranty along with various other benefits including membership to the most exclusive Jaguar & Land Rover Owners Club.
