Wherever you want to take a Land Rover model, it will be ready to get you there. This is because it comes with the Land Rover Terrain Response® system, which is designed to easily tackle conditions that would be a challenge for most vehicles. This guide from Land Rover Bellevue looks at how it works and what it means for your off-road excursions.
Standard Terrain Response®
Land Rover Terrain Response® is a system that makes adjustments based on the land you’re driving on. It consists of with drive modes perfect for all sorts of outdoor adventures, including:
- Gravel and snow: To provide extra grip and prevent slipping, it alters the traction and throttle as needed.
- Mud: Gears are held longer to allow for more wheel slip to keep momentum going.
- Rock: Optimizes throttle response, traction systems, and — on vehicles equipped with a two-speed transfer case — low-range gearing to help maintain control over rocky terrain.
- Sand: To prevent sinking, throttle sensitivity is maximized and differentials get locked.
Terrain Response® 2
If you are an avid off-roader, you’ll probably want to go with Terrain Response 2, which is a more advanced system. It utilizes sensors to monitor the terrain and automatically picks the right drive mode, making adjustments to gear shifts, traction control, and throttle response. And with models that have an electronic air suspension, the ride height will be raised or lowered to augment ground clearance or wheel articulation.
