Overview

Our new intelligent Stop/Start system helps improve economy by up to 9% (49.6 MPG) on the extra urban cycle and reduces CO2 by up to 7.7% (179 g/km) compared to the previous model. Freelander 2 is the world's first SUV to feature this technology and it is standard on all diesel manual models. The vehicle automatically shuts down the engine in appropriate conditions, resulting in zero tailpipe emissions and saving fuel that would otherwise be used idling the engine when stationary. When the driver is ready to move off, the engine instantly re-starts. Intelligent Stop/Start

In congested traffic, when the Stop/Start technology will shut down the engine frequently, other features and technologies will not be compromised, so in-car entertainment, climate control, Bluetooth, driver information and other electronic systems will continue to function. Technologies such as a new voltage quality module, a battery monitoring system, a brake vacuum sensor and an enhanced climate control system have been developed to ensure that such services continue uninterrupted in a stop situation. The system automatically activates every time the vehicle is started and can be de-activated at any time via a switch on the fascia. Intelligent Stop/Start is automatically disengaged if Hill Descent Control or any of the Terrain Response® off-road programmes are selected. In addition, to help optimise economy anytime anywhere, an ingenious gearshift indicator light advises when selecting a higher gear would improve fuel consumption.

Fuel efficiency

Fuel economy, compared with the previous model, is improved by up to 11.9% - to 42.2 MPG on the combined cycle – making the TD4_e manual Land Rover's most fuel-efficient vehicle to date. In fact, tests measured fuel savings approaching 20% in heavy urban traffic. The CO2 emissions of the Freelander 2 TD4_e manual are reduced by up to 7.7% (from 194 g/km to 179 g/km), compared to its predecessorSustainable engineering

The TD4_e is ground-breaking – the first SUV with an intelligent Stop/Start system. This has been made possible by Land Rover's major investment in a programme of sustainable engineering initiatives, collectively named 'e_TERRAIN TECHNOLOGIES'. Already a vehicle of advanced engineering and innovation, Stop/Start is an important and timely improvement to the Freelander 2. It's also one of the first fruits of Land Rover's investment in reducing emissions and providing more sustainable technologies.
