2022 Range Rover

It’s safe to say when you’re dealing with owners who can afford SUVs that are well north of $100K, that you’re dealing with leaders in their fields. With that in mind, the marketers at Land Rover should be applauded for their unique idea of capturing hearts and minds before the start of the Automobility LA and the LA Autoshow. How do you stand out in a sea of product launches? You offer your owners something beyond the car itself, you offer an experience.

The Range Rover Leadership Summit featured a veritable brain trust of business luminaries including Sir Richard Branson (Virgin Group), Lennard Hoornik (Jaguar Land Rover), Angela Courtin (YouTube), Steve Beres (HBO), Quynh Mai (Moving Image and Content). When I’m not in playing with cars, it’s marketing that puts food on the Oyoung household table - and I was riveted by the panel on digital marketing and marketing to Gen Z.

New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff provided an entertaining and engaging session on overcoming negative thinking. Last, but certainly not least, the incomparable Wyclef Jean shared his journey from growing up in a poverty-stricken environment in Haiti to becoming an award-winning performer and producer.

After filling our minds with inspirational lessons, Land Rover filled our eyes with the new 5th generation Range Rover. LA is one of the Range Rover’s top markets worldwide, and the audience was treated to several new models on display, which are now on display at the LA Auto Show. Customers will choose from two powertrains for the 2022 model year - a V8, or a mild hybrid inline-six. In a world that is growing increasingly electric, Land Rover has gotten the memo and is planning on launching an all-electric Range Rover in 2024.

The New Range Rover is available for order now, starting at $104,000 with deliveries slated for spring 2022.
