Land Rover announced that the 2014 Range Rover will be available with a new and more efficient 340hp supercharged V6 engine, replacing the naturally aspirated 5-liter V8 in the model line-up.
The supercharged V6 engine will be offered alongside the 510hp supercharged V8. Both engines will be paired with an eight-speed ZF 8HP70 automatic transmission.
The supercharged 3-liter 90 degree V6 engine was developed from the existing 5-liter V8. With a peak output of 340hp at 6,500rpm, it offers a strong torque curve throughout the engine speed range, producing maximum torque between 3,500 and 5,000rpm.
The 2014 Range Rover, with the new supercharged V6, will reach 60 mph from rest in just 7.1 seconds.
The 2014 Range Rover will be equipped with a new Intelligent Stop/Start system, which reduces idling to reduce emissions and save fuel.
Land Rover is opening retail orders for the 2014 Range Rover, which will be in showrooms this summer.
