Recently, Land Rover officially launched the high-performance HST version of range Rover Star Pulse overseas, which will be equipped with a 3.0T straight six engine, and will launch two versions of diesel and gasoline, and the new car guidance price is 73815 pounds, converted to about 620,000 yuan.
The Star Pulse HST model is a new model and can also be used as an upgraded version of the current R-Dynamic model on sale. Therefore, the overall exterior design is not much different from the current model, and the front face, body contour and encirclement are consistent.
However, a new exterior sports kit has been added to the Star Pulse HST model, offering blackened trims such as 21-inch blackened rims and black roofs, a front grille, LOGO and black mirrors, as well as arroios Grey paint exclusive to the HST model, which can distinguish the HST model from other models, while also improving the recognition and sporty atmosphere. If ranked by appearance, the HST version can definitely rank in the top three of the Land Rover models.
Like the exterior, the interior of the Star Pulse HST version has only made some minor changes, and the design and layout remain the same. The lining and steering wheel of the HST model were replaced with black suede materials. In addition, an Option Pack option is available that supports Amazon Alexa's smart voice control feature.
The HST version of the model, which sells for more than 600,000 yuan, is also very well equipped. New active noise cancellation and all-vehicle privacy glass, L2 autopilot, automatic parking, 3D surround camera and panoramic sunroof can also be experienced on this model, after all, comfort is also important for the luxury brand Land Rover.
The power system is probably the biggest highlight of the Star Pulse HST version of the model, the HST model is equipped with the 3.0T high-power straight six gasoline engine of the Injeli series + 48V light mix, and the transmission system matches the 8-stop hand self-integrated gearbox. In addition to the P400's gasoline model, the HST model also offers a 3.0T diesel model of the D300, but not all markets are available, and diesel-powered D300 models will only be available in some markets.
The maximum horsepower of the gasoline version model is 395 horses, compared with the 340 horsepower of the domestic 3.0T low-power model, the horsepower of 55 horses has been improved, and the zero hundred acceleration performance has also come to 5.5 seconds, which is at the leading level of the same level, which is quite excellent for Land Rover's such a big weight, but the corresponding fuel consumption will also be improved.
The diesel version has a maximum horsepower of 300 hp and a peak torque of 650 N·m. Although the horsepower of the diesel version is much lower than that of the gasoline version, thanks to the characteristics of the diesel engine, the torque and maximum power output range are much better than the gasoline version. Coupled with the original adaptive air suspension system, ATPC all-terrain process control, rear axle differential lock and full-time four-wheel drive system, the off-road ability is not generally strong.
The Star Pulse HST version of the model is likely to be introduced to the domestic market and will be released for sale within this year. It is not clear whether the diesel version of the model will be introduced into the domestic market for sale, after all, the Range Rover Star Pulse HST is mainly a P400 gasoline version of the model, and the diesel engine in the domestic audience is not high and the diesel model has travel restrictions, so whether the diesel version will be introduced has not yet been determined.
Compared with many SUV models of the same level, or the appearance or displacement performance or the chassis configuration, the Star Pulse HST version model is at the leading level, and as the lowest price model in the Land Rover imported model, the product power is not low. However, the HST version of the model relative to the current model on sale has limited improvement, perhaps more people will pursue a diesel version of the model with more torque, because there is no diesel version of the model on sale in China, but the premise is that it can be introduced, if there is a diesel version of the model, I believe the audience will not be too small.
