Less than 3 months once the all-new 2013 vary Rover hit U.S. shores and Land Rover has already free a 2014 model, that brings a brand new three.0-litre V6 supercharged gasoline engine to interchange the naturally aspirated five.0-liter V8, with sales to start this summer.
Land Rover aforesaid this new engine are going to be offered in "key international markets that favour smaller capability gasoline engines", that sounds quite strange if you concentrate on that the V6 are going to be offered in North America however not within the United Kingdom…
The 3.0-liter supercharged V6 comes fitted with a Stop/Start system associated produces an output of 335hp (340PS) at half dozen,500rpm and peak force of three2lb-ft (450Nm) between 3,500 and 5,000rpm.
The V6 is paired to a typical eight-speed automatic drive, and per Land Rover, it accelerates the
2014 vary Rover from naught to 60mph (96km/h) in seven.1 seconds (100km/h in seven.4 seconds), that makes it slightly slower than the outgoing 375hp five.0-liter V8 model that completes the sprint in half dozen.5 seconds.
On the opposite hand, Land Rover says that, with CO2 emissions of 254g/km, the V6 supercharged unit achieves a fifteen % reduction over the five.0-litre naturally aspirated V8. The auto manufacturer has not free any fuel economy numbers however, however it's safe to mention that it'll be additional economical than the V8 model it replaces.
