My Land Rover got an over-the-air update to add support for Amazon Alexa just the other day, completely out of the blue. It's not just luxury or tech cars that do this kind of thing these days.
- hhh 5y agoFWIW, I would consider all Land Rover vehicles luxury vehicles.
- pmontra 5y agoThe Defender is an off road work machine. I don't know if they have some new shiny model to drive where a normal car would do.
- chrisseaton 5y agoI guess if you're in the UK they're just domestic vehicles you see everywhere, and they're treated as workhorses not luxury.
- Grazester 5y agoWouldn't that be the Range Rover now?
- chrisseaton 5y agoRange Rover is a type of Land Rover.
- Grazester 5y agoI get that but I don't think of Land Rovers as luxury oriented. It's specifically their Range Rover line of vehicles
- michaelt 5y agoWell, they're undoubtedly marketed differently, but IMHO it's a double-bluff. Range Rover markets directly to upper-middle-class suburbanites, and show off the leather seats, fancy touchscreens and alloy wheels of shiny, clean cars. Land Rover markets 'adventure', shows cars fording rivers and crossing deserts, and offers optional winch, expedition roof rack and ladder. But they still offer leather seats, fancy touchscreens and alloy wheels; and mostly sell to upper-middle-class suburbanites. To me they seem like extremely similar products, predominantly targeting the same demographic, just with different marketing.
