This car has a few pros and cons but i must say more pros than anything else. The only concern i have is these cars are sometime going to have to become hybrid or electric cars, will these cars beable to do the things they do now without the same power.

Not being funny but blaming stand-alone external peripheries like stereo and sat-nav is a pretty lame way of slagging off this rugged beast. And beast it is!

I agree though that Range Rover need to sort out some of the issues with third part vendors that are happy for the presell but not the upkeep. Valid points – shame they seem to drag the level of raw and elegant and robust sophistication of the mechanics down with them.

I’m not an SUV type of guy but Ive always admired the road presence Range Rovers have always possessed.

The Mercedes S Class is a smaller screen probably only 5 or 6″ in the center of the instrument cluster. This would make up the entire instrument cluster.

Barry,

Great point! I wonder how that will work in cold weather or really extreme heat and forging a river… the kind of things a Land Rover is made for. Maybe it’s a sealed heated/cooled unit?

Yea, this is good, except when it’s really cold outside and your instrument cluster doesn’t refresh until the engine warms up enough to thaw out the lcd.

John, my understanding is that the Mercedes S-Class dash isn’t a single 12″ LCD… any more info on the Mercedes dash?

The technology has already been used since the new Mercedes S-Class.

Too bad they can’t get the systems they have in place to work. It’s always fun driving down the road and then your stereo volume starts rising to full. Another fun one is guess which radio preset you are picking because the buttons have all blacked out on the touchscreen, oh wait, none of them work. Another fun one is when the satellite radio just comes and goes. Maybe mine’s just a lemon? No it couldn’t be, the one that they had to replace that had all of those problems was a lemon. Beautiful car, but you have to learn to live with the quirks.

Whoa, now that’s awesome. I hope they get it right though. My X5’s computer system takes about 10-15 seconds before it actually starts working which is something that won’t fly for the main instrument panel.
