The 2014 Land Rover LR4 is the last of the chunky, square Land Rover left in North America. Let's see if it can still mix stylish elegance with off-road pedigree.

That button isn't for "rear differential lock". The locking diffs in the LR3/LR4 are completely automatic. There is no direct user control. The various Terrain Response modes affect when the lock is automatically used, but that is the extent of your control. What was being confused for a diff lock button is related to keeping the Land Rover in "access height" with its air suspension.

Have an 16 LR4 HSE, love it, the only car I can drive without dodging pot holes in New York City, and I do agree with the throttle response comment, but it's a truck you will learn how to plan your moves on the highways few steps ahead, and how to use the brakes less.

When he says “the seats go more or less flat” and then shows folding down the rear seats, he doesn’t seem to know how to actually lower (not just fold down) the second row seats, which makes the whole rear TOTALLY flat behind the driver and front seat passenger...

@johnwillett4086 3 жыл бұрын

He obviously does not know the car very well as he has no idea of how to fold the second row completely flat - it's simple, just pull the tag on the front of the seat and it goes flat to the floor.

60k isn't all that bad, isn't the new Escalade like 75k?. I'd get it for that much only if I knew there wasn't a redesign around the corner. They should preserve this design the way Mercedes Benz does with their G suv. I'd just replace that infotainment system with a tablet or something because that's awful. Also for that price you can get a beautifully equipped Jeep Grand Cherokee, with better everything basically.

Cooley has the right to complain about this vehicle, because Land Rovers are unreliable, according to Consumer Reports. When the interface fails, the audio, Bluetooth phone, climate, and navigation won't work. If he were to have a Land Rover break down on him, he would be so mad about calling a tow truck to get it fixed.
