    Baby Range Rover....

    MEDIA INFORMATION

    SMALL RANGE ROVER CONFIRMED FOR PRODUCTION
    Land Rover has confirmed today that a production version of its exciting LRX concept car will
    be built. The new car will debut next year and join the Range Rover line-up in 2011.
    Designed and engineered at Land Rover's state of the art Gaydon facility, the new Range
    Rover will be the smallest, lightest and most efficient vehicle the company has ever produced.
    The new car will be built at the multi award-winning plant in Halewood, on Merseyside, subject
    to quality and productivity agreements and will be sold in over 100 countries around the world.
    Phil Popham, managing director of Land Rover said: “The production of a small Range Rover
    model is excellent news for our employees, dealers and customers. It is a demonstration of
    our commitment to investing for the future, to continue to deliver relevant vehicles for our
    customers, with the outstanding breadth of capability for which we are world-renowned."
    "Feedback from our customer research also fully supports our belief that a production version
    of the LRX Concept would further raise the desirability of our brand and absolutely meet their
    expectations." Phil added.
    Gerry McGovern, Land Rover design director said "The new vehicle will be a natural extension
    to the Range Rover line-up, complementing the existing models and helping to define a new
    segment. It will be true to the concept and have many recognisable Range Rover design cues
    including the signature clamshell bonnet, the floating roof and the solid 'wheel-at-each-corner'
    stance."
    More details of the new small Range Rover will be released next year.

    Yeah I guess it was uncalled for...
    I was impressed just how well it went on the last DARE. I hope that fixes things a little.
