Land Rover LR2



The new arrival of the formerly known Freelander to the US will be now known as the LR2, though elsewhere around the world it will still keep its former name, Freelander 2. This all new body follows Land Rover's renovated chassis, which adds about two inches and 600lbs to the all new LR2. This new automobile will now compete with higher class light-trucks such as the Acura MDX and BMW X3. As for the interior, leather seats, power front seat and a sun roof come standard which ups its status among the growing competitive state of SUVs. Its powered by a 3.2L V6 that puts out 320hp and 234lbs/ft of torque. With of course, an all wheel drive system.
All in all this new LR2 is a huge step from the past Freelander, which reflects on its price which will be at almost $40,000 for a fully equipped vehicle.
