These excellent Euro NCAP results are a direct result of the hard work and expertise that goes into designing, engineering and manufacturing vehicles that have combined safety, capability and luxury for more than five decades.
Our strong, mixed metal MLA-Flex body architecture provides solid foundations for a suite of cutting-edge active safety systems such as Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) that combined, work in harmony to protect occupants and other road users. These Range Rovers are a technological triumph.

This evaluation closely reflects our engineered position for both vehicles that have added challenges as a design lead and heavy SUV that delivers modern luxury. The awards also mark our 13th and 14th 5* vehicles in succession and, with the increasingly stringent protocols, have been some of our hardest fought.
Again, this is thanks to a huge amount of effort by everyone, including the passive and active safety systems teams, and all the enabling delivery teams that have delivered this fantastic result.
Congratulations and well done to everybody. Read more on this fantastic news here.
