2019 Land Rover Range Rover vs. 2019 Ford Explorer

 

 

Off-road ready SUVs that also offer extensive luxury are hard to come by for Stamford drivers, but the 2019 Land Rover Range Rover certainly fits the bill. It faces some competition from the 2019 Ford Explorer, but the new Land Rover Range Rover clearly excels, as it:

  • Provides one more year or 14,000 more miles of basic warranty coverage
  • Boasts a greater array of standard features, including technology, luxury, convenience, and more
  • Churns out 50 more hp and 77 more lb-ft of torque from its introductory engine
  • Holds 8.7 more gallons of gas in the fuel tank
  • Promises 11.8 more cubic feet for cargo as standard

Off-Road and Performance Capabilities

Not only does the 2019 Land Rover Range Rover outperform the 2019 Ford Explorer from the start, but it also promises more off-road equipment and performance capabilities for Norwalk adventures:

  • Land Rover Range Rover: The base supercharged 3.0L V6 generates 340 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque via an eight-speed automatic transmission. Four-wheel drive is standard.
  • Explorer: A smaller 3.5L V6 kicks off the Explorer lineup, producing just 290 hp and 255 lb-ft of torque via a six-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard.

What’s more, the Land Rover Range Rover offers performance-enhancing systems, such as Terrain Response 2, an electronic air suspension, All-Terrain Progress Control, and an Active Rear Locking Differential. Similar systems aren’t quite as advanced on the Explorer.

Greater Utility Features

The 2019 Land Rover Range Rover promises greater utility than the 2019 Ford Explorer. When all seats are occupied, the Land Rover Range Rover can still hold 31.8 cubic feet of cargo, as compared with 21 cubic feet on the Explorer. Plus, the Land Rover Range Rover tows up to 7,716 pounds. The Explorer’s maximum towing capacity is 5,000 pounds.
