Chronology

Predecessor Range Rover (P38A)

Successor Range Rover (L405)

The L322 was introduced in 2001 and had a


production run of over ten years. Planned and
developed under BMW ownership, the vehicle was
intended to share components and systems
(electronics, core power units etc.) with the E38 7
Series. However, BMW had already sold Land Rover
to Ford some two years before the L322 went into
commercial production.

In the UK and many other territories, ascending trim


levels were initially marketed as "SE", "HSE" and
"Vogue". Various other trims such as "Vogue SE",
"Westminster", "Autobiography" and special editions
were subsequently produced.

In his Sunday Times column, Jeremy Clarkson once


went on record to state that he owned a Range
Rover TDV8 Vogue and it was ‘the best car in the
world and best 4x4.’[3]

The L322's successor, the L405, was announced in


August 2012 and unveiled the same year at the Paris
Motor Show.

2010–2012 Land Rover Range Rover

For the 2010 model year refresh, the Range Rover


received an updated exterior grille, a multicamera
vision system, front bumper with newly repositioned
fog lights lower in the bumper, LED accented bi-
xenon headlights/LED tail/brake lights with front and
rear amber LED turn signals with a three bar design,
optional blind spot assist and adaptive auto high
beam headlights which are now part of the new for
2010 vision assist package optional on the HSE and
HSE with the luxury package, standard on all
supercharged trims. Two new petrol engines (5.0
naturally aspirated V8 and 5.0 supercharged V8),[9]
and new features. It was unveiled at the 2009 New
York Auto Show.

MY2010 Range Rover Vogue

The interior of the Range Rover was given a minor


facelift, consisting mainly of redesigned and
repositioned switchgear (which saw many of the
originally BMW era designed items updated or
replaced), along with new options never before
available for Range Rover like the addition of push
button engine start/stop . The 2010 Range Rover
also gained new visual display units as also seen in
the new for 2010 Jaguar XJ (X351). This change
consisted of a 12-inch TFT LCD virtual instrument
panel, which replaces the conventional cluster
design — instead 'virtual' gauges are displayed
where physical analog gauges were previously. This
allows various sets of information to be displayed as
required — for example navigation and map
information can be displayed instead of engine
readouts, whilst when one of the off-road driving
modes is selected on the Terrain Response system
the 'gauges' are reorganised to provide space to
display the schematic of the vehicle's suspension,
steering and transmission systems. The other
display unit is fitted to the centre console and uses a
bi-directional screen to show different images
depending on viewing angle (may not be available in
the US). This allows navigational information to be
displayed to the driver, whilst someone in the front
passenger seat can use the same screen to use the
onboard DVD player at the same time, for example.
This system also contains a state-of-the-art multi-
camera system from Valeo Vision Systems in Ireland,
which allows the driver to see around the vehicle
during manoeuvres and which contains multiple
overlays and views.[10]

Holland & Holland



Unveiled in early 2010, the Holland & Holland edition
Range Rover is billed as an all season luxury
supercar. It is not an official Land Rover limited
edition, the model is produced by Overfinch using a
standard Range Rover furnished with unique
features using Holland & Holland as design
consultants. Supplied to Overfinch unfurnished and
sometimes unpainted, when complete they can be
maintained officially through any Land Rover
dealership. The cars can be finished in five unique
colours including Tintern Green, a famous Holland &
Holland colour; the cars can also be specified with
two-tone leather and extended walnut trim, which
can be colour matched to a customer's gun.
Features unique to the Holland & Holland include a
bespoke rear console and refrigerator including
power outputs and storage for branded crystal
tumblers. In the boot, all Holland & Holland cars
have a gun box fully furnished and including a drinks
cabinet. Either the 4.4 TDV8 or 5.0 Supercharged
engines can be chosen, both with extra power, the
cars also feature a modified 'Aero 3' Overfinch body
kit to distinguish them from other Range Rovers.

By the time of the launch, Land Rover had been sold


to Ford in 2000, as part of the splitting up of the
Rover Group. As a result, the initial engine
derivatives were not included in the sale.
