LRX is described as a cross-coupé and dramatically extends the scope of what Land Rover represents. LRX has been conceived as a premium vehicle, designed to appeal to new customers in the luxury and executive sector - those who want many of the benefits of an SUV and the presence of a larger vehicle, but in a more compact package. Its compact size is one of its greatest assets, which will appeal to anyone who wants the versatile ability of an agile SUV with the cachet of the Land Rover name. In addition, its lower weight and the reduced aerodynamic drag resulting from the smaller frontal area would help give significant gains in fuel efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions. LRX is conceived as a highly fuel-efficient, U.S. Federal-specification, 2.0-liter, turbodiesel hybrid, capable of running on bio-diesel. In combination with other Land Rover technologies, this powertrain could reduce fuel consumption by as much as 30 percent compared with other SUVs of comparable size, and reduce emissions to approximately 120 g/km. The design of LRX was developed entirely in-house by Gerry McGovern's team, driven by a passion to create a vehicle that truly represents Land Rover's future thinking. The interior of the LRX concept clearly demonstrates how a compact Land Rover can still be roomy, practical, versatile - and sophisticated. Although LRX is compact, clever use of space makes it impressively roomy, and many neat design touches maximize its practicality.
