Whats the difference between a land rover and a range rover?



Answers:
In the begining was Rover.
And Rover begat Land Rover, well the Rover car co could not get enough steel after the war for reasonable levels of car production so they looked round, found many ex army Jeeps were wearing out and decided to make a replacement using readily available aluminium for the body panels,.
This became the Land Rover. 4 wheel drive utilitarian slow.
they planned a faster version the Road Rover but by the time it ht production with a V8 engie and near 100 mph top speed it had taken the name Range Rover, with the break up of Rover the Land Rover became the Defender and the 4wd Defender, Range Rover, Discovery, and Freelander producing arm of the Company became Land Rover and moved to Ford ownership.

Normally a "Land Rover" is the jeep type vehicle with Leaf springs and selectable 2 or 4 wheel drive, Range rover the 3 or 5 door off road 5 seater Hatchback with permanent 4 wheel drive and coil springs. Defenders are essentially Range Rover mechanicals and Jeep type Land Rover styling.

Land rovers used to be much more practical and not so luxuroius.

Range Rovers are similar but with air con, leather seats etc.
Land Rover is the name of the car company. Like Toyota or Ford. So, its a Range Rover, by Land Rover.

Land rover are specifically engineered for agricultural or military use, whereas the Range rover was originally designed for the more affluent "land owner" who required more luxury and so has more "on road" capabilities.

Both are very good off road, though.
Land Rover is a car company. Range Rover is one of the cars that Land Rover makes.
Range Rovers are the big posh things for poseurs who don't really want to go off road but like to block the road outside schools

Land Rovers are smaller. There are the:

Defender - proper 4x4 for farmers and people who tow horseboxes etc

Freelander - the small one for people who want the image but can't afford the real thing

Discovery - bigger than the other land rovers with 7 seats and very practical but pricey and getting more and more like a range rover

All made by the same people

ps just looked at the US website and for our american friends for freelander read LR2 and for discovery read LR3. It seems they don't even bother selling the proper land rover - the Defender, in the US
Land Rovers are driven around the countryside by farmers , Range Rovers are driven around the city my mums collecting kids from playgroup
Range Rovers are more luxurious and they could come with the supercharged V8 engine. if you want more info I suggest you check their official website.

Land Rover makes both cars BTW and the company is owned by Ford.
$34,000 and $65,000
The Land Rover is actually designed to go off road, the Range Rover is for ponces.
The Range Rover is made for good streets
AND outdoor activities. this means it is fast
and save also on a highway.

The Land Rover is just an outdoor car,
a jungle car and not so well for usual streets.

That's all. The same goes for the UNIMOG
on Mercedes Benz base. With that car You are
the King Of The Woods. but You should not drive
through the urban part of our beautiful world..

Amen.
English company vs Japanese company
The former is for farmers or cheap transport for the military, the other is for affluent 20 and 30 somethings to run the kids to school. Both have pretty miserable fuel consumption, so do nothing for the environment and hasten the end of a valuable commodity.
errrrrr pass 2pts thx
Land Rovers more rough and ready, better at off-road but not so luxurious as a Range rover. Perfect example, the Defender is a Land Rover, its designed to be great off-road and sod the on-road bit!! Exactly what an Off-Roader SHOULD be!!
