Land Rover South Africa has made the announcement that it will sell a revised Freelander 2 starting in November this year. What this essentially means is that certain updates for the small SUV are in order, including engines of course.
Actually, engines are probably the biggest improvement. For example, the new 2.2-litre turbo diesel will put out either 110kW or 140kW, depending on whether it’s fitted to the TD4 or the SD4
variant respectively. Maximum torque is a substantive 420Nm, which is 20Nm more than the outgoing car. C02 emissions are 174g/km for the 110kW and 185g/km for the 140kW. Both vehicles come with start/stop technology as standard in the manuals. Average fuel consumption is said to be 6.6l/100km and 7l/100km. Diesel models have also been fitted with a fuel tank mis-fuelling device as standard to prevent drivers accidentally filling up with petrol.
The automatic gearbox has been improved to make it stronger and to help with fuel efficiency. The 6-speed manual remains largely the same.
Some exterior changes will include a new front bumper, new rear lights, more colour-coded parts, new 18-inch and 19-inch alloy wheels and new exterior colours.
