The LR3 can seat up to seven passengers with the optional third row, and the seats fold flat into the floor individually. It is available in SE and HSE trim levels. Power comes from a 4.4-liter V8 bolted to a six-speed adaptive automatic transmission and full-time four-wheel drive system. Electronic air suspension, hill descent control and Land Rover's "Terrain Response" system help the LR3 to tackle any off-road situation. Standard safety equipment includes four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, emergency Brake Assist, electronic stability control with roll mitigation, eight airbags and a security system.

2008 Land Rover LR3

Boasting legendary off-road capability, world-class luxury, and ample engine power, the 2008 Land Rover LR3 is the SUV of choice for many well-heeled buyers who want the absolute best that money can buy.
Two trim lines are available – the SE and the HSE – both featuring a Jaguar-derived 4.4 liter V8 engine producing 300 horsepower and 315 lb.-ft. of torque for potent acceleration and ample towing power. A standard 6-speed automatic transmission with CommandShift manual shifting control provides smooth gear changes. As one of the most capable off-road machines on Earth, the LR3 features Terrain Response that adjusts the off-road settings depending on road conditions. Hill Descent Control automatically adjusts downhill speed on deep descents or slippery grades. Ample ground clearance and approach angles make traversing rocky terrain a breeze. The Electronic Air Suspension allows you to optimize the ride height by adjusting each air spring and features three modes.

A vast array of safety features includes 4-wheel Electronic Traction Control, which maximizes vehicle traction on a variety of surfaces. The Standard Anti-Lock Braking System with Electronic Brake Assist prevents wheel lockup and applies maximum braking power in panic situations. Standard Dynamic Stability Control helps the driver maintain control if a loss of lateral grip is detected. Active Rollover Mitigation adjusts the suspension settings to increase handling abilities in fast corners. 8 standard airbags, including dual front, dual side driver and front-passenger airbags, and side curtain airbags for front- and rear-seating positions help protect passengers in all three rows in a collision.

Standard Park Distance Control is an audible alert system that allows perfect parking in low-visibility situations. An available 550-watt, 14 speaker Harman/kardon LOGIC7® sound system fill the air with rich sound quality. The standard dual-zone automatic climate control allows separate temperature controls for front seat occupants. The optional Technology Package is a crucial option that includes a DVD-based GPS navigation system, SIRIUS® Satellite Radio, a Personal Telephone Integration System with Bluetooth® and a 4x4 information center for the ultimate connected driving experience.

Few luxury SUVs offer the heritage and capability of the 2008 Land Rover LR3 – and for the lucky few who can afford one, the spoils are for the taking.
