The Range Rover: A Luxurious yet Confusing Companion on the Road

The Range Rover is a vehicle that exudes luxury and sophistication, both from the outside and within. Its sleek design and premium features make it an attractive option for those seeking a high-end driving experience. However, there's a catch - the entry-level model doesn't come with leather upholstery or satellite navigation as standard, which is somewhat disappointing given its starting price of £45,000. Nevertheless, S models upwards do receive these features, while higher trim levels add additional perks such as a brilliant Meridian sound system, extra leather, and adaptive cruise control.

One of the standout features of the Range Rover is its dual-twin screens, stacked one above the other, which look absolutely fantastic and very modern. Unfortunately, the infotainment system falls short in terms of usability. Navigation functions are controlled through the top screen, making it a bit confusing to enter a destination at first, especially when trying to select an address or postcode. However, once you've figured it out, it's not too bad, and loading times are acceptable if not quite as quick as those found in other systems like the Audi Q5.

It's worth noting that some models feature additional features such as a TV tuner for watching free-view channels on-the-go, providing an entertainment option for passengers in the back. The second 10-inch screen sits below the main display and is set into a gloss-black surround, flanked by physical rotary buttons that seamlessly integrate into the dashboard. This screen allows you to adjust climate control, tweak seat heaters and ventilation, operate general vehicle settings, and choose between off-road modes. However, it's all a bit confusing to use while driving, as the low location of the screen requires taking your eyes off the road for an extended period before.

SE models and above add another layer of complexity with the introduction of the digital driver's display - a 12.3-inch interactive screen that lets you customize dashboard prioritization, navigation media, or driving functions. While it looks clear and works okay, some menus can still be confusing to navigate, and the steering wheel controls feel a bit fiddly to use. This sums up the Range Rover's infotainment system: it looks great, has some neat touches, but the user experience could be improved.

The range of options available for the Range Rover is impressive, with various trims levels to choose from, each offering unique features and upgrades. The Sport Dynamic pack, for example, includes sporty alloy wheel designs, more aggressive bumpers, and different badging - making it a great option for those seeking a more aggressive driving experience. Additionally, some models come equipped with an optional headrest screen setup, providing an entertainment option for passengers in the back.

In conclusion, the Range Rover is a luxurious vehicle that offers a range of features and upgrades to suit various preferences. While its infotainment system has its limitations, it still looks great and has some neat touches. With careful consideration and exploration of the available options, potential buyers can find a model that meets their needs and provides an enjoyable driving experience.
