Payload HSE vs SE

This article does not stipulate a Land Rover but it's an interesting read.

That’s the best breakdown I’ve seen....and they do mention the 130 but didn’t break it down as it’s not longer available, I’m guessing he is using figures for the current models

Thanks for the replies.
I would anticipate the HSE would be heavier with more goodies but, I would have thought that would an increase in the Tare not the Kerb. End of the day though, it will impact the allowable payload so looks like the SE for me.

Thanks again

Just a guess though!

Don't forget that Land Rover have a list a mile long for optional extras so a standard HSE doesn't have that much more than SE and its not until its a V8 or fully specked that it would make a huge difference.
For example a standard HSE only has 11 speakers, upgrade is 17, standard has no head rest screen, no heated or cooled seats, no console fridge and the list goes on
