More room, more comfortA packed Los Angeles freeway is hardly the African bush, but there, among the desperate housewives, we got familiar with the LR3's insides. Land Rover's bid to satisfy American buyers is obvious. Wide seats offer plenty of room to sprawl out. A couple hours into the trip and we hadn't thought twice about them.With traffic barely moving, we inspected the details of the LR3's interior. Unlike most SUVs in the $45K range, the Land Rover LR3 favors utility over luxury, which we could chalk up to Land Rover's heritage if we were feeling generous. We aren 't. For $45 grand we want more than the LR3's mix of two-tone plastics and average-quality leather.It doesn 't need polished planks of maple adorning its dashboard, but it should convey the upscale look and feel offered by its competitors. Overall comfort is high, however, and ergonomics are now on par with other trucks in the class. Too bad the LR3's list of standard luxuries, while long, isn't long enough. Every Land Rover LR3 comes with leather seating, dual-zone climate control and a full array of front, side and side curtain airbags, but for $45K seat heaters and automatic headlights should also be on that list. That said we're thankful for the numerous big, sturdy cupholders, and the industrial-strength rubber floor mats are distinctly Land Rover. Check out more on the new Land rover |
