Hasn't this e-Terrain concept been floating around in LR for a while now? I suppose it was only a matter of time. I think they should take a leaf out of AM's book and start producing 7.0 V12 engines Thumbs Up

I'm guessing it is the way forward for the time being until we all have hydrogen cars.

But I'm not sure that in the real world for me that this current technology would make me any savings other than car tax. I rarely sit in a traffic jam and I don't drive many miles at 20mph or less......so at what point would I save any fuel Confused

Its like the Lexus hybrid.....every time I see one its flying down the motorway at 80+, not using hybrid technology other than to increase speed. TDV6 - gone

United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Arctic Frost

The Greenpeace protesters that invaded Land Rover a few years ago were mostly professional people. Doctors, lawyers, accountants and the like. They had booked the day off work to take part in the demonstrations, some of them travelling from as far afield as London and the West Country.

The protest was very well organised and Greenpeace took great care to ensure that no vehicles were damaged in anyway. That is why the Police couldn't just drag them away. The Land Rover employees were warned not to touch the protesters or they could have faced assault charges themselves.

In the end the only thing the protesters could be charged with was trespassing. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Professional or not, they still adopt the prole attitude when brandashing their hypocritical banners, in a nutshell they should concentrate on the real issues of the world Evil or Very Mad L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!
