Range Rover gets minor updates for 2011

Land Rover just released an upgraded Range Rover in 2010, and now only a year later the model line is getting even more enhancements. One of the new improvements to the Range Rover is an addition to a system put in place in the 2010, the Terrain Response System. Hill start assist holds the vehicle on a grade until the driver accelerates, making it easier to drive up hills. Last year Land Rover added a new launch control system designed for driving in sand as well as an updated rock climbing and decent mode and a gradient release control to keep the Range Rover from accelerating too quickly down a slope.

Other additions to the 2011 model are optional rear reclining seats and a 1200-watt 19 speaker Harmon/Kardnon sound system.

A new Autobiography Black limited edition model is also being released to celebrate 40 years of Land Rover. It comes with the rear reclining seats standard along with heat and ventilation in the rear seats. The interior can be covered in Jet Black leather or two-toned leather. Also included is Grand Black wood veneer trim and illuminated door sills. The exterior is, of course, a special Barolo black color with contrasting diamond-turned aluminum alloy wheels and a few nice chrome inserts and a special grille.

All of the 2011 Range Rover models will utilize a 6-speed automatic transmission and your choice of either a normally aspirated V8, producing 375 horsepower, or supercharged 5.0 liter V8, producing 510 horsepower.
