Range Rover's quiet and comforting cabin is adorned with sumptuous leather and burled walnut trim. The high seating position and low waistline add up to excellent outward visibility. You can see closer in front of the vehicle than you would in a Lexus LX 470, an important feature when traversing a narrow path alongside a bottomless gorge.The seats are comfortable and the leather trim feels nice. Passengers in the back seats enjoy gracious legroom. Dual front airbags are standard, along with side airbags built into the front seats. Front shoulder belts get pre-tensioners, devices that cinch the belts tight during a frontal crash. The 4.6 SE comes with a 300-watt Harman/Kardon entertainment system with a six-disc CD changer, twelve speakers, weather bands and steering wheel controls; but our HSE had a 460-watt system that automatically increases sound volume with increasing speed; it also allows the driver to select driver-oriented or spatial modes. The split tailgate makes it easy to load cargo. The tailgate is made of aluminum, so it is very light and easy to close. But it is designed to handle weight when loading.
