Four-wheel-drive vehicles are routinely criticised - and often singled out - for the size of their carbon footprint compared to other forms of transport. Land Rover, which makes nothing but 4×4s, is understandably keen to amend this negative connotation.

Land Rover Freelander TD4_e Stop/Start (2008) CAR Review

Land Rover is going green…honest. The first of its CO2-reducing technologies – the Freelander TD4_e featuring stop/start technology – launches in April 2009 and promises to be the most fuel-efficient Land Rover ever offering 42.2mpg and 179g/km of CO2. The authentic 4×4 brand also claims the Freelander TD4_e is the world’s first SUV to sport an intelligent stop/start system.

Green Light For Eco Land Rover

IT’S the off-roader with an eco-conscience, it’s a world beater and it’s made in Britain by Land Rover.

The latest Land Rover Freelander is about to become the first 4×4 to offer stop/start technology, slashing CO2 emissions and improving fuel economy.

Part of a five year, £800million programme, the new Freelander paves the way for Land Rover to kick into touch the gas-guzzling image of four-wheel-drive vehicles.

The stop/start technology will be available initially on manual versions of the 2.2-litre diesel Freelander at no extra cost from May next year.
