Test drive Range Rover Sport 2014 shod in Goodyear tires
Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUVs add driving dynamics and agility Goodyear announced that the 2014 Range Rover Sport is equipped with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV tires, the result of years of work with Land Rover Jaguar. The asymmetric Eagle F1 SUVs add to the car's dynamics and agility. By evenly distributing tire pressure, it provides cornering control and maximum road contact when cornering. It also provides better wet handling than its predecessor thanks to an asymmetric tread pattern that improves wet contact and drainage channels to prevent hydroplaning. Finally, the tread reduces outside noise and provides a more comfortable ride that matches the car's luxurious interior. “The asymmetric Eagle F1 SUV naturally complements the Range’s superior performance…
Range Rover test drive
The wheels tear apart the historical lawn, but walking pensioners do not panic - the degree of trust in the Range Rover brand in England is great. In addition, the updated flagship almost does not pollute the air. The middle part of the back of the sofa slowly slides down, forming a massive partition between passengers. Its part leaves forward, opening access to the boxes and coasters. The seats take a semi-recumbent position, a plump ottoman leaves under your feet. The driver silently starts off - on the paths of London Heathrow Airport Range Rover rides on an electric motor. The hybrid version is the main novelty of the updated range of the flagship Range Rover, and there is a feeling that they did it not for the sake of economy, but for the sake of this very blissful silence in the cabin. On the track, a gasoline engine comes into play, ...
Range Rover Test Drive
Cliveden, a mansion about thirty miles west of London, is a compelling relic of the tales of princes and princesses, but it's also over three hundred years of true English history. The gravel at the end of the giant alley was still better for horse hooves than car tires, and a number of renders that were present at his own christening at least spoiled the image of Cliveden's memories, if not completely ruined it. But even the Range Rover had already become part of English history, and now that it had been carefully redesigned in twenty-four years, it was worth bringing to this chivalrous environment. Majestic walls, business in striped jackets and servants in tailcoats were the perfect backdrop for this important event, and even polished ...
Test drive BMW X7 vs Range Rover
Between them - six production years, that is, a whole era by the standards of the modern automotive industry. But this does not prevent Range Rover from competing almost on equal terms with the new BMW X7 Admit it, you, too, when you first saw the BMW X7, were surprised at the striking resemblance to the Mercedes GLS? Our US correspondent Alexei Dmitriev was the first to test the largest crossover in the history of BMW and found out from the designers how it happened that the Bavarians began to imitate their eternal competitors. The answer to the question that concerns everyone can be found here. I got acquainted with the BMW X7 already in Moscow reality, immediately plunging it into a burgundy traffic jam at Leningradka, and then thoroughly dipping it into the mud in the Domodedovo area. Not to say that that "X-seventh" was from ...
Test drive Lexus NX vs RR Evoque
This comparative test might not have happened - everything was decided in a split second. The brake to the floor, the ABS chirps hopelessly, the tires are trying to cling to dry asphalt with their last strength, but I understand perfectly: another half a second, and the hybrid crossover will turn into an expensive sandwich ... This comparative test could not have happened - everyone decided a split second. The brakes hit the floor, the ABS chirps hopelessly, the tires are trying to grab dry asphalt with their last strength, but I understand perfectly well: another half a second, and the hybrid crossover will turn into an expensive sandwich. On the right is a truck, and straight ahead is a snow-white E-Class. The moment I started counting the airbags, the girl, who had forgotten about the mirrors, returned to her row. From the adrenaline rush...

Range Rover Velar test drive: range extender
Behind the wheel of the youngest member of the exquisite Range Rover family To make it as simple as possible how this new product will be positioned, suffice it to say that the Velar is meant to fill the gap between the Evoque and the Range Rover. Sounds logical, and it really is. But to limit the explanation of the existence of such a model to only elementary facts would be almost a crime. Because Velar itself is a phenomenon in its market segment and has virtually no direct competitors - at least for now. This car is more elegant than the Mercedes GLE Coupe and more aristocratic than the BMW X6. At the same time, it has significantly greater cross-country ability compared to the two above-mentioned popular models, which, logically, could…
Test drive Audi Q3 against Range Rover Evoque
Three million rubles a month ago opened the doors to almost all classes: SUVs, all-wheel drive sedans or even coupes. But now everything has changed. The new generation Audi Q3 took a long time to reach Russia, where a whole scattering of models of this segment, like the BMW X2 with the Jaguar E-Pace and the fashionable Lexus UX with the Volvo XC40, have already settled. But Q3 seems to have grown up and acquired such equipment that it can challenge not only all of them, but also the luminary of the genre - Range Rover Evoque. The compact Audi Q3 has already been dubbed the "little Q8". It is believed that it is just as comfortable and advanced, a kind of reduced copy of the flagship crossover. But is it really so? Let's try to figure it out. Just a couple of hours driving...
Test drive GL 420 CDI vs Range Rover TDV8: Duel of the giants

Comparative test Range Rover TDV8 and Mercedes GL 420 CDI. One of GL's goals is to overthrow Range Rover. To do this, the model has a carefully thought-out gigantic body, a well-maintained and at the same time incredibly powerful eight-cylinder diesel engine. Until recently, at least in terms of the latter, the Range would have been unprepared, but today the situation is different: the British have for the first time created an eight-cylinder diesel version of the model, which at the same time develops an impressive 272 hp. With. The diesel nature of the Briton can only be recognized on…
Test drive autobiography Range Rover SDV8: noble by nature
First Impressions of Range Rover Updates in Autobiography Variant Range Rover has never been just an SUV. Although this model has evolved over the generations, it remains one of the biggest and most recognizable phenomena in the illustrious history of the UK automotive industry to this day. In its first generation, it was more of an invulnerable vehicle that could equally well go fox hunting or hiking in Africa, but today the Range Rover is more like the perfect companion on a round-the-world trip. The original Range Rover was hailed as a work of art, and today's successor is close enough to that definition as well, though, in keeping with the era in which we…
Test drive and comparison of Lexus LX and Range Rover
The Russian buyer is less and less embarrassed by the frequent maintenance of diesel cars and possible problems due to low-quality fuel. Such engines have convincing advantages The hungry howl of an eight-cylinder diesel will make a Greenpeace activist turn gray, but the Lexus LX450d was created with an eye on countries where giant SUVs are still found. In Russia, it is already selling much better than the gasoline version, and this is not surprising. More than half of Russian Range Rovers also refuel at a dispenser labeled DT. Basically, these are economical V6s, but the share of the status V8 is also high - 25%.

Range Rover Velar test drive
A great friend of AvtoTachki has wanted to test Velar for a long time. When they finally met, Matt admitted that he would like to always drive this car. He also painted a psychological portrait of the buyer of the Range Rover Velar - a wonderfully complex and delightfully easy to drive station wagon. It's also a luxury sports sedan and a very capable SUV. All of which means the Velar is a pretty good deal because you get at least three great machines. The only downside to this "multiple personalities" Land Rover marketing strategy seems to me to be that most people don't buy three cars at a time and tend to be obsessed with one. Well, if you are planning to buy any new Range Rover, the price is the last thing on the…
Test drive Range Rover TDV8: one for all
This Range Rover may call out to the wild, but its noble atmosphere and powerful 8 hp V340 diesel just as good on normal roads. It would be quite possible. We set the dual transmission system's Terrain Response control to Mud, engage the gearbox's low gear mode (2,93:1) just in case, and leave traffic jam cruising through rough terrain and muddy roads. Such desires are far from the realm of fantasy, but with this car they are rather a matter of choice. However, fine gravel and wet grass under 21-inch wheels fit into the noble atmosphere of a huge Range Rover only if they are in the courtyard of English aristocrats. So we are patiently waiting...

Test drive BMW X5, Range Rover and Audi A7
The Moscow car park for foreigners is something inexplicable. The Germans do not understand how students can buy a Porsche Cayenne, and the Dutch do not go to Red Square first, but consider the BMW 7-Series on Tverskaya “Do you have subsidies for the purchase of BMW?” - a friend from Amsterdam, getting into the X5, grimaced somehow dismissively. For a couple of hours in the Central Administrative District, he counted 18 Bavarian crossovers, about 20 “fives” and 18 “sevens”. Range Rover, which we moved to tomorrow, seemed to the Europeans an even more popular car: on the 30th copy, he lost count. The Moscow car park for foreigners is generally something inexplicable. Once, at dinner in Austria, one of the top managers of the Volkswagen concern asked me the question on duty: - How is Moscow? “Good, but the market is not feeling very well,” he spread his hands in response. — Wait, so Russian students don't buy Porsche Cayenne anymore? the German was surprised. Gustav Otto, one of the founders of BMW,…
Test drive Range Rover Evoque vs Infiniti QX30
Evoque, not shy, scatters bits of dirt. The QX30 is not far behind - stylish urban crossovers do not try to impress with brutality, but at the same time they are well equipped for trips out of town. These two are completely different from each other, but there is something that unites them: Range Rover Evoque and Infiniti QX30 - barely or the most stylish premium crossovers on the market. If the "Japanese" is a beginner, then the design of the "Ewok" will soon turn 10 years old. They do not try to impress with brutality, but at the same time they are well equipped for trips out of town: all-wheel drive and solid ground clearance. The LRX concept was first shown in 2008 - and it still hasn't caught on. Moreover, gradually...
