New levels of power, efficiency and refinement. An all-new engine for the new
2010 Land Rover LR4, setting new standards for performance.
The new LR-V8 engine improves driveability and harnesses the very latest
technology for outstanding overall performance. For instance, it includes a torque
actuated dual independent variable camshaft phasing system, shared with the
new 2010 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, to make the vehicle more reactive
to driver inputs and driving conditions.
The new lR-V8 engine’s camshaft torque actuated, dual independent Variable Camshaft Timing
system continuously controls camshaft timing to deliver an optimum balance of power, efficiency
and emissions. The chain driven camshaft timing units are mounted on the end of each camshaft to
advance or retard camshaft timing and alter the camshaft to crankshaft phasing. Camshaft Profile
Switching features two completely different intake camshaft profiles machined into the same
camshaft. The engine management system chooses the camshaft profile depending on running
conditions and torque demands: one profile for low-speed/low-load driving; the other, with longer
valve lift, for higher-speed/higher-loads.
The fuel injecTion sysTem on The new lR-V8 engine achieVes high sTandaRds
of duRabiliTy, combustion performance and refinement. The ultra-precise machining of
high-pressure injectors ensures a fine-quality spray of fuel into the combustion chambers and
optimizes combustion conditions both at cruising speed and during acceleration. The engine uses
a high-pressure, steel fuel rail. Fuel in the rail is detected by a high-pressure sensor which controls
flow into the rail by adjusting an electromagnetic valve in the high-pressure fuel pumps’ outlet.
