Spied: The 2013 Ranger Rover
The Next Royal 4x4

Our Teamspeed spies managed to get a few shots of a very early prototype of the all-new Range Rover which is scheduled for a presentation in late 2013. Judging from the wider but not longer fenders we reckon the car is going to get a slightly wider track but retains today’s wheelbase.

The mule-style front design of the prototype leads us to believe new engines are underway. However, the modifications might as well be a hint to a radically different front-end layout which could be necessary due to stricter pedestrian safety regulations.

Like today’s model, the new Range Rover will be available with a variety of V8-petrol and diesel engines delivering between 270 and 510 hp. To reduce the company’s fleet consumption much further than smaller models alone could do, Land Rover might have a hybrid version of the new Range on the cards as well. Stay tuned for more.

 

Late 2013? I thought it was scheduled for release in 2012

 

Yeah hopefully this one will get more than 10k on the odometer before shitting the bed like my current 2011 P.O.S

 

Nice DJ thanks. I'm excited to see what they do. I hope the rear tails get a revision.

 

wow!!! looooooks sooooooooooooooo different!

 

It looks as if they are throwing some LR3 touches in...over fender-flares do not like on the Standard RR!

 

Fender flares are camo dude.

 

This is the real RR, not the "RR" Sport.

 

They share a ton of parts (powertrain) so his criticism is fairly received.

 

yes the REAL RR has been a POS over the years- it shares that honor as well.
