Vehicle Highlights

Land Rover's flagship comes in base 4.6 SE and high-luxury 4.6 HSE models. Both have a 4.6-liter V8 and all-wheel drive that includes low range gearing. Also standard: automatic transmission, antilock 4-wheel disc brakes, traction control, front side airbags, and driver-adjustable self-leveling suspension. HSE has 18-inch wheels instead of 16s, more wood and leather inside. A navigation system and 460-watt premium audio are standard on HSE, available for SE. Navigation system includes features designed for off-road use. Range Rover and lower-priced Discovery are built by Land Rover, which Ford recently bought from Germany's BMW. Redesigned Range Rover due for 2002.

COMPETITION

Though this segment has cooled somewhat with the rise in fuel prices, it's still one of the hottest. Our Best Buys include the Chevrolet Tahoe, Ford Expedition, and GMC Yukon. We love the size, comfort, and power of these big SUVs. The GM models get the nod in overall ratings, but shop and compare both before you buy.

For a few more bucks you can get the Recommended Toyota Land Cruiser. Its high price is the only thing holding back this refined and drivable SUV.
