    bye bye SD4 already?

    According to info posted on RangeRovers.net by somebody from Netherlands:

    2.0L SD4 240 hp
    The AJ200D4H (SD4 240PS) engine is removed from 19MY. This applies to all emission specifications
    (EU6, EU5, etc.) and markets.


    3.0L SDV6 249 hp
    The AJ200D4H (SD4) will be replaced in EU6d-Temp markets (Europe) by a 249PS version of the
    twin-turbo SDV6. With only 9PS extra power, this engine delivers extra 100Nm of torque and faster
    acceleration compared to its predecessor - 2.0L diesel engine.
    Note: The performance figures listed are the last target information and are only intended as an indication.

    3.0L TDV6 Diesel
    The existing TDV6 3.0L diesel engine will not be upgraded to meet the new EU6d-
    Temp-legislation and therefore the 19MY will be withdrawn from the EU6d-Temp markets.

    Availability of diesel engines for 19MY
    To summarize the above changes, Diesel engines are available with RRS at 19MY:
    In EU6d-Temp Markets:
    • SDV6 249PS
    • SDV6 306PS
    • SDV8 339PS


    No idea if this applies to other models like D5.

    Also looks like Apple Car-play makes an appearance for MY19.

    Hi Gregz
    Yes, really strange decision as the SD4 emissions (CO2 and Nox) are lower with this engine than any other diesel engines available. I simply think this is rather a commercial decision due to little market demand. They just did the same with the new 2020 Defender which has been available with same SD4 for a few months only and quickly replaced by SD6.
    I personally have a RRS SD4 MY17 and am very happy with it. I don't care how fast I can go from 0 to 100km/h but I do care about fuel consumption which is IMO very low for a 2tons+ vehicle (7L diesel per 100km average after 60k km).
