Land Rover are going to show the LRX concept at the Detroit Motor Show next
year. The brawny yet sporty vehicle aims at tarmac cowboys who are looking for
a sporty and stylish ride to cruise the urban jungle's boulevards. Basis for
this is the new Freelander 2 however the 2-door is round 15cm shorter than the
recent entry model.
A modern, clean
and Landy-like design point unmistakably out its gentility. Land Rover is a
premium brand and despite of their long tradition, the make is good for more
modern approaches and derivations of off road vehicles. The LRX concept makes
this clear - clear as crystal.
It might not have a coupe silhouette but the term is applicable though. Moreover, the
wedge-shaped side profile looks much better than the odd BMW X6. The LRX, however,
is two sizes smaller than the Bimmer. It's a car of the compact class.
Many companies
are currently preparing models of this sort. With this concept, Land Rover show how
their offering could look like and those who are working on an X1 or a Q3 should
watch out, it's a looker - no embarrassing wannabe coupe, no copy of any original,
it is an original! Next Page >
