2022 Range Rover launched in India at Rs. 2.32 crore
Jaguar Land Rover has launched the 2022 Range Rover SUV in India. Its bookings are open. The car is available in three variants: SE, HSE, and Autobiography. A First Edition model, which is based on the Autobiography trim, will be offered only for one year. The four-wheeler has a sporty design, a feature-loaded cabin, and is available with multiple engine options.
Why does this story matter?
The fifth-generation Range Rover broke cover in the international markets in October last year and is the first to get a 7-seater model as an option. Its good looks, long list of features, and choice of engines should appeal to buyers in India. It will raise the competition in the luxury SUV segment on our shores and will rival Mercedes-Maybach GLS and Bentley Bentayga.
The car has flush-fitted door handles and multi-spoke wheels
The new Range Rover has a clamshell hood, a chrome-finished grille with 'gill' motifs, and sleek LED headlamps. On the sides, it is flanked by blacked-out B-pillars, flush-fitted door handles, ORVMs, and 21- to 23-inch multi-spoke wheels. A shark-fin antenna, 'RANGE ROVER' lettering, and a gloss black panel that incorporates vertically-positioned LED taillights are available on the rear end of the SUV.
The SUV gets up to seven seats and air purifier
Range Rover has a 4-, 5- or 7-seater cabin, featuring a Cabin Air Purification Pro system with PM2.5 air filtration, a 35-speaker, 1,600W Meridian Signature audio system, a minimalist center console, and a 4-spoke steering wheel. It packs a 13.7-inch digital instrument cluster, a 13.1-inch Pivi Pro touchscreen infotainment panel, a pair of 11.4-inch entertainment screens in the rear, and a head-up display.
Petrol and diesel engine options will be offered
In India, the Range Rover is fueled by a 3.0-liter, 6-cylinder diesel engine with 48V mild-hybrid technology that makes 243hp of power and 700Nm of peak torque. A 4.4-liter, twin-turbocharged, V8 petrol mill with 516hp/750Nm output is also available. Both the models get an all-wheel-drive system. Integrated Chassis Control, all-wheel steering, Terrain Response 2 system, and independent electronic air suspension ensure better performance.
2022 Range Rover: Pricing
In India, the 2022 Range Rover starts at Rs. 2.32 crore for the base 3.0-liter diesel SE variant and goes up to Rs. 3.41 crore for the range-topping 4.4-liter long-wheelbase (LWB) First Edition model (all prices, ex-showroom).
