What's New in the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover?
The biggest change for the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover is under its hood, where a new supercharged 3.0-liter V6 replaces last year's 5.0-liter V8 engine. (The supercharged V8 is still available.) A long-wheelbase model highlights the Autobiography series, while less dramatic changes to the lineup include the addition of LED headlights to all trims, Intelligent Start/Stop technology on the V8 Supercharged and a revised options list with more standalone options.
Which Range Rover is the Best?
We'd skip the $130,000-plus Autobiography, but the Supercharged model offers the same glorious 510-hp motor at a considerable discount. We're sold.

How Much Does a 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Cost?
A 2-row luxury SUV, the 2014 Range Rover is offered in four main trim levels: base, HSE, Supercharged and Autobiography.
The base Range Rover ($83,545) includes 19-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlights with washers, LED lighting accents in the front and rear, a power tailgate, a heated steering wheel, wood interior trim, leather upholstery, multi-way power heated front seats with driver memory, a TFT/LCD instrument panel, tri-zone climate control and an 8-in touchscreen infotainment system with voice control, Bluetooth, a hard-drive-based navigation system and a 380-watt Meridian sound system.
The Range Rover HSE ($88,545) adds 20-in wheels and the panoramic roof (with optional black trim on the periphery), as well as niceties such as Oxford leather upholstery, heated rear seats, winged headrests in both rows and available massaging front seats with power-adjustable bolsters. Quad-zone climate control and a self-parking system with automated steering are also offered.
The Range Rover Supercharged ($99,995) cranks up the power with a supercharged V8 and tacks on 21-in wheels and an upgraded Terrain Response 2 Auto adaptive off-road driving system. But otherwise, it's pretty similar to the HSE in terms of equipment.
The Range Rover Autobiography ($135,995) is in a league of its own, as it boasts adaptive xenon headlights, start/stop engine technology, reverse traffic detection with blind spot monitoring, available 22-in wheels, unique color combinations, semi-aniline leather upholstery, 20-way power front seats, a rear-seat entertainment system, an 825-watt 29-speaker Meridian sound system and the option of two executive-style rear seats instead of the standard 3-person bench. A long-wheelbase model is also available this year.
Options for the base model include 20-in wheels, adaptive cruise control and a full-length panoramic roof.
New safety options this year include the Enhanced Parking Aid package with parallel and perpendicular park assist, as well as the Lane Departure Warning system that includes a forward-facing camera capable of recognizing speed limit and road hazard signs.
Cargo space measures 32.1 cu ft behind the rear seats and 71.7 cu ft with the rear seat backs flipped forward. That's not overly impressive for an SUV of this size, but we'd call it competitive -- not to mention more than most Range Rover owners will likely ever need.
