Land Rover Debuts Range Rover With Long-Wheelbase
Land Rover is extending its family of peerless luxury vehicles with the introduction of long-wheelbase variants of the Range Rover vehicle and the addition of an exclusive new ultra luxury edition- the Range Rover Long-Wheelbase Autobiography Black.
The Range Rover Long-Wheelbase will make its global premiere alongside the Range Rover Long-Wheelbase Autobiography Black edition at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The public reveals will take place on November 20, 2013 at 10am PST during the Land Rover press conference.
These two new Range Rover variants meet strong global demand for enhanced luxury, rear seat accommodation and exclusivity at the pinnacle of the Range Rover line-up.
Range Rover Long-Wheelbase
Debuting at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, long-wheelbase Range Rover models have 7.3-inches more rear seat legroom than standard-wheelbase models and when equipped with the optional executive seating package, an increased seatback recline of 17 degrees. Customer deliveries of long-wheelbase range rover models are expected to commence in late Q1 2014.
The additional 7.3-inches of rear legroom has been achieved by lengthening the aluminium unibody in front of the rear wheels. The signature floating roof and distinctive Range Rover silhouette are retained.
Long-wheelbase variants will initially be available on Supercharged and Autobiography trim levels with either a three-across bench seat or individual rear seats with a centre console. The individual rear seats can recline to 17 degrees, a full eight degrees more than in the standard-wheelbase. All long-wheelbase vehicles will be equipped with standard powered door blinds and a panoramic sunroof, and carry a distinctive ‘L’ badge insignia displayed on the lower front door trims.
