The all-new Range Rover is here: royalty, Premiership footballers, country gents, drug dealers, social climbers and car enthusiasts rejoice! That cast list sums up the broad appeal of the original luxury 4x4, which this fourth-generation seeks to extend with a technical breakthrough: it’s the world’s first SUV with an all-aluminium body. That helps make it some 350 kilos lighter than ...

According to CAR's latest spy shots, the new Range Rover Sport looks set to crib much of its styling inspiration from the entry-level Range Rover Evoque. With much of the heavy cladding gone and only shrink-wrapped tape remaining, we can now see the new Range Sport will move away from its bluff Range Rover brother's physique, and toward a sleeker, sharper ...

These are the first spy shots of the extended-wheelbase Range Rover Evoque. The stretched version of the baby Rangie will go on sale late in 2013, likely carrying a slight price premium over the regular five-door Evoque, on account of its larger boot and roomier cabin. Range Rover Evoque LWB: the scoop As you'll see in these spy shots, a liberal ...

Here's a curious mix of classic Britishness and modern modifications: a Kahn-tuned Land Rover Defender fitted with a butch bodykit, enormous multispoke wheels and knobbly tyres and - inside -tweed-trimmed bucket seats. It's like a Spitfire wearing a Damien Hurst-penned livery. This is, to give the car its full title, the Kahn Defender Concept 17 Wide Body - Harris Tweed ...

The new Desert Warrior 3 is the result: a rally racer powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-litre diesel, tuned to produce between 275-300bhp depending on event restrictions, and a whole ...

Here's another look at the stretched, long-wheelbase version of the new Range Rover. Due in 2013, the Range Rover LWB is aimed at the plutocrats' markets in Asia, Middle East and the US where space is seen as the ultimate luxury. Project L405 has included a long-wheelbase variant from the word go and CAR's sources suggest the LWB Rangie enjoys ...

Another Range Rover Sport has been spotted testing, with less camouflage and no disguise at all for the design of the alloy wheels. We had expected the new RRS to arrive in late 2013, but it could be seen as early as the Geneva show in March 2013 if the development schedule continues apace. Expect the new RRS to sport a price tag ...

Your eyes don't deceive you: here we have another camouflaged Range Rover scooped while on test in the UK. But while the all-new Range Rover has already been revealed, this is the long wheelbase Range Rover, set for a sales debut in 2013. Why is Land Rover building a LWB Range Rover? When Land Rover invented the luxury 4x4 segment ...
