2016 Range Rover Td6 | Driven Car Reviews | The New York Times
The Volkswagen cheating scandal did no favors for the acceptance of the diesel engine in the United States, but the luxurious Range Rover diesel gives buyers a terrific reason not to spurn the technology.

It's 2019 and I just got a 16' TDI Beetle convertible and a 16' Td6 Range Rover. Love the torque, sound, and dependability in both. Great vehicles.
I’ve had mine since 2010 and still driving well. I haven’t had any issues with the engine. I change my oil every 5k miles and replaced the brake pads twice. I’ve had reg maintenance such as tune- ups ( I also have a good mechanic lol). No issues here. If you get one just make sure you have either a good warranty ( exclusive ) or/ and a good mechanic.

What sorts of things have gone wrong that have been covered under warranty?
Filmed in Seattle of all places, I recognized several locations instantly
Great review.
These are extremely enjoyable reviews, I wish they were twice the length so he could go in more detail. This RR is an excellent vehicle, the fuel economy is AMAZING for such a heavy vehicle. AND the diesels are a DREAM. I own TWO E class Diesels also with a 3.0 and similar HP and torque numbers, and they have BOTH been BULLETPROOF RELIABLE not ONE failure in 6+7=13 years of ownership to date.
best vehicle reviews on youtube by far. good work guys.

They put it to the left and small because it's a Range Rover hence why there's large lettering on the front, they put the Land Rover badge in small on the left of the grille just to show Range Rover is a Land Rover brand, just like a little reference. If it was in the middle, it would be more noticeable and people would refer to it more as a Land Rover, a none luxury tough and rugged off-road vehicle with out as much prestige, they wouldn't want to do this to a brand that is focused on pure luxury, prestige and exceptional off-road capabilities. Hope you understand now haha.
Good thing they fixed the look of the backlights. The 2015 model looked horrible.

Gorgeous car
Interesting take on the diesel Volkswagen vehicle sounds like it may be a winner.
I'm watching this 26th March 2020. Good luck filming this video today using multi packs of toilet paper to load :)
We recently bought one and it's an amazing car

Actually a few friends of mine got different Land Rovers, a Sport, a Range Rover, and a Discovery. The one with the Discovery had some minor issues with it's infotainment system which broke down a few times and he had to restart the car to get it working. The Sport has almost the same infotainment system and it worked absolutely fine.. And with the Range Rover there where also no issues at all. So I think a lot of the bad reputation land rover has in terms of reliability comes from the last generation models, but the new ones seem to work absolutely fine, like they should for the price!

James Taylor yeah, during the ford era they used a real mishmash of parts of JLR, Mazda, and Ford and never really got it right. Hopefully reliability is really coming back up.

Most reviewers aren't ever going to be very negative. They are given free vehicles to use from the manufacturers and dealers. If they are super negative then no one will loan them Cars to review. That's why it's important to watch several reviewers or maybe just someone who does it for fun who isn't afraid to point out a cars negatives.

Matt Watson is a pretty good reviewer, he's on carwow. There's Alex on Autos who uses other cars as a referencing point when he grades the ride he's testing. Both of them aren't afraid to mention negatives.
World best car Range Rover sport
Your comment about VW and diesel is totally absurd.They still outsell most car makers in the world with diesel powered vehicles.

***** JD Power gives 2015 models 2.5 out of 5 in the Vehicle Dependability Study. There's been 6 safety recalls issued from US NHTSA in 2015, including one where the lug nuts "may crack and detach from the wheel hub studs."
Range Rover is currently the best available vehicle on the market.

All that talk about better gas mileage...and no mention of the actual mpg?

He gives it starting at 2:08.
For dependability JD Power rates Land Rover near the bottom - compared to all cars on the road. That rating is from 2016 - so obviously Land Rover STILL has dependability issues. You are a *fool* if you spend over $100K on this car and it ends up in the shop during the first 3 months of ownership.

land rovers are horrible cars in the "long runs" . all they do is break down and fall apart. even when the car accelerated away at the beginning of the video, things sounded "loose" and not "tight and new" like it should be
