Overview

The 2013 Land Rover LR2 SUV is a proud member of the compact SUV segment, locking horns with cars like the BMW X3, the Audi Q5, and the Volvo XC60. Available in 3 trim options, the LR2 starts off at a base price of MSRP of $36,400. Its 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission give the SUV 240 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. With that, it manages a 0-60 of 8.2 seconds and boasts a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds. Moving to fuel economy, the LR2 manages to get a combined EPA rating of 20 MPG, a poor number for the class, giving its rivals an edge. It also has a ground clearance of 8.3 inches.

Buying Advice

We think the HSE trim with Climate Comfort package will suffice all your needs in a premium SUV. This trim adds satellite radio, adaptive xenon headlights, and driver seat memory functions, while the package offers heated washer jets and heated front seats, and a heated windshield.
