Land Rover have released a concept model in the LR X that is a 4×4 with CO2 emissions of only 120g/km. Featuring a 2 litre turbo diesel/electric engine, stop/start technology and lightweight parts that will allow the LR X to achieve 60 mpg.

This will not be Land Rover’s first movement into the green market as the current Freelander diesel is already using stop/start technology that has reduced CO2 emissions from 194 to 179g/km.
