The 2008 Range Rover rental will also get four-zone climate control, which is a significant addition. There are also more interior wood grains to choose from, a new interior color called Storm and two new exterior colors, Alaska White and Lucerne Green. If you’re still interested, we have a nice batch of photos below to check out that will tide you over until the new models arrive later this year.
Last year saw the
addition of a
272-horsepower (and
472-lb-ft of
torque), 3.6-liter
turbodiesel V-8 to
the options list for
the plush Land Rover
Range Rover Rentals.
The updates for the
2008 model are less
substantial, but
they do play their
own part in climate
change - mostly
inside the capable
sport-utility
vehicle.
Inside the Range
Rover, passengers
now enjoy four-zone
air conditioning.
Rear-seat passengers
now can control
their own air
temperatures and
vents. Along with
this system, Land
Rover has added
infrared-deflecting
glass at the
windshield and
sides, so that the
amount of heat
transmitted into the
vehicle is reduced.
Land Rover says this
allows the Range
Rover Rentals to
cool more quickly
and more
effectively.
Other changes to the
substantial SUV
Rentals include more
stow space inside,
and additional
leather trim on the
climate controls and
the center console.
Clients can now
choose from seven
woods to trim their
Rovers - all from
sustainable forests,
the company notes -
and a wooden
gearshift knob now
is available.
The Range Rover For
Rent Rent a Land
Rover Off Road SUV
Luxury SUV Rentals
for 2008, on sale at
the beginning of
July, features a
series of luxury
touches and
practical new
refinements to
ensure continuing
appeal to customers.
The improvements are
expected to help
maintain the strong
market performance
of the Range Rover
For Rent Rent a Land
Rover Off Road SUV
Luxury SUV Rentals ,
with sales in the UK
in the first five
months of 2007
already 20% up over
last year.
"That increase is
largely due to the
huge popularity of
the acclaimed TDV8
diesel that we
introduced to the
Range Rover For Rent
Rent a Land Rover
Off Road SUV Luxury
SUV Rentals line-up
last year," says
John Edwards, Land
Rover UK managing
director. "The
engine's great
combination of
performance and fuel
economy has not only
powered overall
Range Rover For Rent
Rent a Land Rover
Off Road SUV Luxury
SUV Rentals sales,
but also shifted our
diesel/petrol mix,
especially in
Europe. Most Range
Rover For Rent Rent
a Land Rover Off
Road SUV Luxury SUV
Rentals customers
who would previously
have bought a V8
petrol now choose a
TDV8 instead, which
offers petrol-like
refinement but with
32% better fuel
economy."
The list of changes
for 2008 is headed
by the introduction
of four-zone air
conditioning, which
enables rear seat
passengers to
control their
individual heating
and ventilation.
This is neatly
complemented with
'climate control'
windscreen and side
glass which is now
available in
conjunction with
automatic rain and
headlight sensing.
The special glass
cuts infra red heat
transmission into
the vehicle,
reducing heat build
up when the vehicle
is parked in the
sun, for example, so
allowing the air
conditioning to
function faster and
more effectively on
drive away.
A redesigned rear
seat armrest
provides extra
stowage space
(including a
dedicated location
for the optional
rear seat
entertainment remote
control) and there
is additional
leather trim on the
heating and
ventilation unit and
centre console.
There are now a
total of seven real
wood veneers to
choose from, all
sourced from
sustainable forests,
and additional wood
veneer elements have
been applied to the
rear of the centre
console. A matching
wooden gear knob has
also been introduced
on some models.
The attention to
detail extends to
new tread-plates and
revised graphics on
the touch-screen and
instruments. A new
interior color
becomes available,
called Storm, as
well as two new
exterior colors,
Alaska White and
Lucerne Green, and a
fresh set of
"designers' choices"
for recommended
interior and
exterior
combinations.
