Review: 2008 Land Rover LR2

I’m going to start right off with the nicest feature I’ve seen in a car this year: When you have 50 miles left on your tank, the LR2 will beep and give you a low fuel warning on your dash. Sure, you say. That’s normal. “Not so fast,” I reply, because then it will automatically turn on the navigation map highlighting all gas stations in your area! This is fantastic! This is technology actually working for us the way we have been promised. This is the future. Your car knows you need gas and is helping you find gas stations without any action on your part, a completely automated system. While this feature may exist in other cars–and truthfully, I don’t tend to test the low-mileage feature on them–this is the first time I’ve seen it. All manufacturers who employ technology in this way should be congratulated, and rewarded. Thank you Land Rover. I heart you.

As for the rest of the car? It didn’t disappoint.
