The chassis was also made stronger and new welding techniques were used. This was the last Range Rover available with a maual gearbox and a classic transfer box. Other features included anti-lock braking system and in some automatic gearbox models two-wheel traction control although later models saw this feature applied to all four wheels.
Many people refer to this generation of Range Rover by the designation P38 or P38A, neither of which is the original LR designation. The project was code-named Pegasus internally by Land Rover, and this, coupled with the project being housed in Solihull's block 38A resulted in the unofficial designation P38A, which became common use company wide too.
