2009 Range Rover Features And Price | Sport HSE Supercharged

While the 2009 Range Rover is perhaps best noted for its impressive off-road abilities, its total package most definitely emphasizes both luxury and comfort as well. In fact, while there are a myriad of luxury SUVs today, there was a time when only one combined a go-anywhere attitude amid luxurious surroundings, and it was the Range Rover.

The 2009 Range Rover is more capable and luxurious than ever, maintaining a legacy of powerful performance, superior off-road abilities, a world-class interior, and all in a stylishly designed package (Land Rover was owned by BMW when the current model was designed).

All Range Rovers feature an air suspension that raises and lowers automatically (or through a switch on the console). Also available are adjustable powertrain, suspension and electronic systems with five different settings: general, grass/gravel/snow, mud/ruts, sand, and rock crawl.

The 2009 Rover Range Rover seats five passengers and is available in three trims: HSE, Supercharged and Sport (also offered in HSE and Supercharged forms).

Standard Features And Options:

Standard features on the Sport HSE include leather upholstery, sunroof, bi-xenon headlights, auto-dimming rearview mirrors, adjustable air suspension, front and rear parking sensors, power front seats, driver seat memory settings, a power tilt/telescoping steering column, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, 19 inch wheels, Bluetooth, navigation, and a 14-speaker Harman Kardon Logic 7 stereo with a 6-disc CD changer and an auxiliary jack.

Available options on the Sport include a Cold Climate package featuring a heated windshield, heated washer jets and heated front and rear seats. There's also a Luxury package that includes the cold climate package plus upgraded leather upholstery, a cooler box, adaptive headlights, and walnut trim.
