2015 Land Rover LR4 Review - AutoGuide.com

Land Rover products are often loaded with expensive equipment like air suspensions that offer variable ride height and cooled compartments in the cabin to chill drinks during long rides. Superb Highway Cruiser Air suspensions make for especially easy highway driving and I adore them. Better still, the truck I drove had one of those onboard “cool boxes” I mentioned earlier with enough space to carry four cans of blood orange San Pellegrino and map pockets that – in this case – doubled as snack food caddies. A message began scrolling through the trip computer screen between the speedometer and tachometer to tell me that the stability control, emergency braking and hill descent control systems were all disabled. Worse still, my precious air suspension defaulted to “access mode” to lessen the likelihood of a rollover crash. This all happened as I made my way out of the Joe Louis Arena parking lot intent on making the four-hour trip home from Detroit. Perplexed, I plugged my destination into the navigation system and started toward the highway with AutoGuide. com truck expert Stephen Elmer riding shotgun. He was just as confused as me and we resolved to spend the next four hours after sundown driving carefully. Source: www.autoguide.com
