If Cadillac is doing this, can’t wait to see what Range Rover Next will have!! Yeah right! #rangerover

 

Just more of the same, Land Rover Range Rover likes to tout their 12” LCD instrument panel that is nothing more then a digital version of analog gauges with some very, very, very slight tweaks and really absolutely no advantage.  It will neither show you what’s playing on the audio system nor give you any navigation hints, mostly it’s just two “dials” with a large black void in between.

With the video showing what is possible, they really better impress us with the Range Rover Next’s technology.

And I know this is practically a repeat post, but again still not holding my breath!

Next Range Rover Virtual Gauges better look like this #rangerover

As I’ve complained about many times before, the 12” TFT virtual gauge cluster that appeared with the 2010 Range Rover refresh, had better of been a beta test.  I believe it was a test of the technology that provided us a taste of what may come in the future.  In reality it provided nothing more then something to impress people with, the first time they see it, they can’t believe it.  Then when they hear it actually doesn’t do anything more then that, they all say the same thing – gimmick!

So today I read and watched about the new system Cadillac has coming and it just blew me away.

 

And here’s my hope, what we are seeing right now in our 2010 – 2012 Range Rovers is just a proof of concept and when generation two appears in the next Range Rover, it had better be a leap beyond what we’re seeing from Cadillac, since they’re just starting with the technology, right?

But don’t worry, I’m not holding my breath.

2012 Range Rover Brochure #rangerover

Thanks again Patrick!

While not nearly as interesting as the previous Discovery 4 post, it still has some neat updates.  Although it’s so close to the previous years brochure, I think there’s a lot of Photoshop’ing going on.  The must not have a huge printing budget for the last year of this model…

So again, being the same brochure, I’m just going to point out a few interesting differences for 2012…
