Overview

The 2014 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 Lexus NX200t. Available in 3 trim options, the LR2 starts off at a base price of MSRP of $36,600. 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

The HSE trim offers the best value for its sticker price as it adds a 17-speaker Meridian surround-sound audio system, enhanced leather upholstery, an eight-way driver, and 6-way power passenger seats to have a more comfortable commuting experience. To top it off, we also recommend the optional Navigation System.
