"The Land Rover LR2 is a true 21st century Land Rover. It comes equipped with advanced technology features, a spacious cabin, outstanding driving dynamics, and superb on and off-road performance capabilities and the greatest breadth of capability in its class. We feel the design is very desirable to today's youth."
said Ahmed Gharib, General Manager, Jaguar and Land Rover, Egypt.
The interior package of Land Rover LR2 is about functionality and comfort but also modernity, with a real sense of flow and craftsmanship.
It has generous head, shoulder and legroom, in both the front and rear.
Large glass areas emphasize the spacious feel and complement the elevated 'command driving' position - a Land Rover hallmark - and 'stadium seating', where rear passengers sit slightly higher than front occupants, for a clearer view of the world outside - perfect whilst out with friends on a city drive.
Other features and options include: keyless starter button; bi-xenon headlamps; adaptive front lighting that swivel with the direction of travel to improve the driver's view of the road ahead, and a full colour touch-screen DVD satellite navigation system (HSE only).
The premium audio system complete with 14 speakers, including a sub-woofer; is played through an in-dash six-disc CD changer giving top-level and a clear crisp sound quality.
An auxiliary audio connection (for iPods and MP3 players) is standard on all vehicles - perfect to plug in to your favorite tunes.
Take it on the road and you'll turn heads, but its performance is best experienced while rising and dipping on desert dunes.
Its 3.2 litre i6 petrol engine is performance personified for a premium compact SUV and delivers 0-97kmph in 8.4 seconds.
The vehicle is packed with new technologies to improve both on-road and off-road performance like Land Rover's unique Terrain Response system - for easier off-road driving.
Terrain Response is activated with the flick of a switch.
The driver simply chooses one of four terrain settings on the centre console.
Terrain Response then automatically selects the appropriate settings for the vehicle's advanced electronic controls and traction aids.
It's like having an off-road driving expert by your side - perfect for those adventure outings.
Other interesting technologies include a new permanent intelligent all-wheel-drive system for superior traction and better on-road fuel economy, and the patented Gradient Release Control, which improves driver confidence and control when releasing the brakes on steep and slippery slopes.
Safety features include seven airbags - driver and passenger front airbags are designed to help provide head and chest protection and the front side airbags to protect against side impacts.
Full-length curtain airbags in the roof side structure are designed to help protect against head injury and roll-over ejection for front and rear occupants.
An inflatable knee bolster helps protect the driver against leg injury from the steering column.
The Land Rover LR2 is Land Rover's fourth new model in just five years, it joins the impressive line-up of The Range Rover, Range Rover Sport and Land Rover LR3 that together have seen record-breaking sales performance around the world.
"The overall look is premium and very contemporary and your friends will comment on how stylish it looks and how comfortable it was to travel in, And since customers are driving premium SUV's — the best in the world — they should have the best service. That is why MTI offers its customers 5 years or 150,000 Km warranty (whichever comes first), as well as a "Total Care" program that provides 24/7 emergency support via a dedicated toll free hotline." stated Mostafa Salah, Marketing Manager Jaguar, Land Rover Egypt.
