It’s just more of the same image and repeated text as they used for the latest L322 ads – “most refined and capable” blah blah blah.
What happened to the good old days – when they had a little fun with it…
A great poster over on the rangerovers.net board (Thanks Chris!) sent me over the guide with the latest changes for the 2014 Range Rover. Biggest change for the US market is the new 3.0L Supercharged V6 for the base & HSE trims. The naturally aspirated V8 is no longer available at any trim level.

And oh yeah, the green badges are back!
All these new high-tech camouflages auto manufacturers love are great at hiding the lines of their latest triumphs but nothing beats how the original Range Rover team did it – they just put another badge on it

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_Rover:
In 1967, the first Range Rover prototype was built, with the classic Range Rover shape clearly discernible, but with a different front grille and headlight configuration. The design of the Range Rover was finalised in 1969. Twenty-six Velar engineering development vehicles were built between 1969 and 1970 and were road registered with the number plates YVB151H through to YVB177H.[3] The Velar name was derived from the Italian ‘velare’ meaning to veil or to cover.[4] Range Rover development engineer Geof Miller used the name as a decoy for registering pre-production Range Rovers. The Velar company was registered in London and produced 40 pre-production vehicles that were built between 1967 and 1970. Most of these Velar pre-production vehicles are accounted for and have survived into preservation.[4]
