- Fuel consumption improved by 3.8 mpg
- CO2 emissions reduced by almost eight per cent* over the standard EU4 drive cycle
The eight per cent improvement equates to a CO2 emissions reduction of 15 g/km compared with the standard Freelander 2 TD4 manual (from 194 g/km to 179 g/km*). In terms of fuel efficiency, consumption is improved from 37.7 mpg to 41.3 mpg*.
Land Rover's new Stop/Start system improves fuel efficiency by automatically shutting down the engine in appropriate conditions, resulting in zero tailpipe emissions and saving fuel that would otherwise be used idling the engine when stationary. When the driver is ready to move off, the engine instantly re-starts.
The Freelander 2 TD4_e, which was put to the test in a specially designed off-road course through the centre of London's Battersea Power station, on the doorstep of Lookers’s Battersea dealership, is available now.
