Added power, performance and torque. Improved economy. Reduced
emissions. Freelander 2 is now available with two new, highly efficient
diesel power units. Both engines feature a new turbocharger, which
delivers improved response, offer a useful extra 20Nm of torque and
are 2dB quieter than the outgoing engine.
The new 2.2 litre 150PS diesel engine, fitted to eD4 and TD4 models, delivers both improved CO2 emissions and better
economy compared to the previous model. And now, for those customers who want the advantages of Freelander 2’s
command driving position, class-leading ground clearance, 2000kg braked towing capacity and great interior flexibility,
but don’t require the ultimate in 4x4 capability, Freelander 2 will also be available as a two wheel drive vehicle -
badged eD4 - from early 2011.*
An improved, intelligent Stop/Start system is fitted to all eD4 and TD4 diesel manual models. This enhance fuel efficiency
and reduces tailpipe emissions to zero, by shutting down the engine, in appropriate conditions, when the vehicle comes
to a stop. The system can now operate at temperatures as low as 0°C and has a 30 percent quicker re-start time.
The enhancements made to the powertrain mean that fuel economy and CO2 emissions are improved on all diesel models.
For example, TD4 models deliver fuel economy of 6.2 l/100km on the combined cycle with 165gms of CO2 – improvements
of 7.5 percent and 7.8 percent respectively.
The new 2.2 litre SD4 Diesel engine produces 190PS and 420Nm of torque – and is fitted as standard with an
updated six-speed automatic transmission with CommandShift®. The improvements to the powertrain deliver
a 0-100km/h time of 9.5 seconds - almost two seconds quicker than the unit it replaces. But the gain in
performance is not at the expense of economy and CO2 emissions. Delivering 7.0 l/100km on the combined
cycle with 185g/km of CO2 the SD4 is better by 11.4 percent and 13.6 percent respectively than the outgoing
engine. Freelander 2 is packed with innovative technology that helps save fuel.
In addition to the two diesel engines there is also the choice of the acclaimed 3.2 litre i6 straight-six petrol
engine, which employs advanced technologies, including Cam Profile Switching and Variable Valve Timing for
more power, a better spread of torque and more efficiency. The standard six-speed automatic transmission
comes with CommandShift® which allows the driver to make manual sequential changes. Sport mode offers
an even livelier performance.
