Range Rover

After 25 years from the introduction of the first generation Range Rover, the second generation Range Rover modeldesignation P38A was introduced for the 1995 model year, with an updated version of the Rover V8 engines. There was also the option of a 2.5 litre BMW 6 cylinder turbo diesel with a BOSCH injection pump. This was the first Diesel injection with electronic controls in a Land rover, before common rails were introduced. This was a result of BMW's subsequent ownership of Rover Group & hence the Land Rover brand. The new model was even more luxurious, answering the evolution of the Mercedes G-Wagen, positioning the vehicle above the Land Rover Discovery and the increasing presence of Japanese SUVs. It incorporated new engine management (smoother and more powerful) and improved air suspension that allowed automatic, speed proportional height adjustment. This could also detect when the vehicle is not parked horizontally and attempt to raise itself to maximum height in an attempt to gain horizontal levelling. Of course, the user can also adjust the height manually, the different levels can be reprogrammed to adjust for different tyre sizes or shocks.
