https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/imported/2017/10/249.jpgThe updated*2018 Range Rover has been ousted in a leaked online video this week, giving us a first look at what to expect from the luxurious British SUV flagship.While the exterior changes are fairly minor, the new Range Rover (http://www.caradvice.com.au/range-rover/range-rover/) gets an updated headlight design with LED beams and a revised LED daytime-running light signature.Expect the headlights to be offered in several versions like the recently-announced 2018 Range Rover Sport (http://www.caradvice.com.au/589055/2018-range-rover-sport-revealed-here-in-april-with-phev-option/), ranging from 'standard' full-LED to adaptive Matrix LED units.https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/imported/2017/10/250.jpgThe front grille also appears to get a slightly updated mesh, though the front bumper looks to be relatively unchanged.Inside, though, is where the most significant changes have occurred - at least according to the short video clip. Gone is the previous-generation single infotainment display, replaced by the newer, larger dual-touchscreen setup seen in the Velar (http://www.caradvice.com.au/range-rover/velar/) - and more recently the 2018 Range Rover Sport.The dual-display configuration allows for media and navigation to be controlled in the upper portion, while, lower down, the secondary display controls functions like climate control and seat ventilation, accompanied by a pair of rotary dials for added ease of use.https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/imported/2017/10/251.jpghttps://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/imported/2017/10/252.jpgWhile hard to determine from the video,* it's also likely that revised materials and trims will feature in the new Range Rover's cabin. The vehicle shown is also specified with the limousine-like four-seat layout with a large centre console at the rear.Other expected updates include the addition of a new plug-in hybrid (http://www.caradvice.com.au/category/plug-in) drivetrain - as first seen in the updated Range Rover Sport. The system pairs Jaguar Land Rover's (http://www.caradvice.com.au/tag/jlr) 221kW 2.0-litre 'Ingenium' petrol engine with an electric motor and battery system which develops combined outputs of 297kW and 640Nm of torque and a claimed zero-emissions range of up to 51 kilometres.Stay tuned to*CarAdvice for our coverage of the Range Rover's official reveal, which will likely be in the coming weeks.Thanks to reader James for the tip!MORE: Range Rover news, reviews, comparisons and video (http://www.caradvice.com.au/range-rover/range-rover/)Watch Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKDgWnihJCg
