Handling improvements perfectly match the new engine's capabilities. The Range Rover 4.6 HSE
is fitted with special 18-inch alloy wheels and 55-series tires - the only sport-utility vehicle to feature such low-profile tires. These dual-purpose tires offer excellent on- and off-road traction while increasing handling response and subjective feel.
With subtle custom details that set it apart, the Range Rover 4.6 HSE is offered with exclusive Ash Black or Lightstone leather trim, including a leather-clad shift handle. A choice of six high-gloss exterior finishes for 1997 includes sporty Monza Red and dramatic AA Yellow (both limited in availability), plus, appropriately, traditional British Racing Green.
4.6 HSE : 4.6 HSE with Kensington Interior : 4.6 HSE Vitesse
The idea behind the Kensington is seemingly quite simple. Start with the most exclusive model of the most exceptional four-wheel-drive vehicle available - the Range Rover 4.6 HSE. Then make it even more sumptuous, even more exclusive and add an even more impressive audio system. The results are sublime. The Range Rover 4.6 HSE with The Kensington Interior is truly the crème de la crème.
The standard Lightstone Leather interior includes contrasting Ash Black piping on the seats. Leather trim is used lavishly throughout the interior, including on the center console and cubby box lid. Rich burl walnut trim adds warmth and luster to a larger area of the center console, including the fascia surrounding the dual-zone climate control and the audio system. Even the cupholders are accented in walnut.
The audio system bears further elaboration. This exclusive harman/kardon premium sound system with 10 power amplifiers has been tuned specifically to the Range Rover's interior. With an AM/FM stereo receiver, cassette player and six-disc CD auto-changer, this 300-watt, 12-speaker system is an auidiophile's delight.
The optional, fully integrated, hands-free cellular telephone works with the audio system, muting audio programs when the phone is in use.
But don't forget that all of this is in addition to the extraordinary features and attributes of the Range Rover 4.6 HSE. With permanent four-wheel drive, a 225 horsepower V8 engine and 18-inch alloy wheels, the 4.6 HSE offers the performance of a European sports sedan with the legendary off-road capabilities of a Land Rover.
The limited-edition Kensington Interior is simply the icing on the cake.

he Range Rover 4.6 HSE is the most powerful and sporting vehicle Land
Rover has ever produced. While the performance from its 4.6-liter V-8
engine is notable, what truly sets the 4.6 HSE apart is its remarkable
handling, aided by special tuning of its air suspension system and the

appointments, the 4.6 HSE redefines the most exclusive level of Range
