5 reasons to buy the 2016 Land Rover LR4
1. Classic design
The Land Rover LR4 will ensure that you make a statement every time you arrive. Its design is classic and represents Land Rover’s history of building luxurious off-roaders and luxury SUVs. As an added perk, the 2016 LR4 is available in 14 exterior colors, providing many options to you as you shop.
2. Spacious and luxurious cabin
The 2016 Land Rover LR4’s large size enables it to provide you with a spacious cabin, with available seating for up to seven people. In addition to its large size, the cabin provides luxurious amenities you’d expect from a premium brand, including options such as heated leather upholstery, high beam assist, a heated steering wheel, and automatic climate control. Combined, the airy cabin and luxury finishes will ensure you’re as comfortable as you can be whether you are road-tripping or running a quick errand.
3. Top-tier tech
The LR4 comes equipped with some of the best technology you can find on the market in a full-size luxury SUV. One such option is adaptive cruise control, which scans the road ahead of you ten times a second to match and maintain the speed of the traffic ahead. Another option is the automatic headlamps with high beam assist, which detects the headlamps and taillamps of other vehicles and dips the high beam until the light sources are out of range. These two features are just two examples of how the LR4 is designed to make driving as convenient for you as possible.
4. Winter ready
If you are buying an SUV, it’s possible you need something that will keep you confident and comfortable when the temperatures dip or there is snow and ice in the forecast. Land Rover’s Terrain Response® technology provides different settings for different surfaces, such as pavement, grass, snow, or mud. This system reconfigures the LR4’s engine, transmission, throttle, and traction settings for the best traction available.
5. Powerful supercharged V6
The Land Rover LR4 comes standard with a 3.6L supercharged six-cylinder engine. It produces 340 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a standard eight-speed automatic transmission, you can rest assured that you will have all the power you need regardless of where the road takes you.
