It must be an American market issue because they are selling in Europe, Australia, NZ and there's triple digit growth in emerging markets like Brasil, Thailand........

Problem of the Range Rover is the fuel economy, it’ll be very inefficient because of it’s height and design.

What high end EV is “selling” in those markets that is on the Range Rover’s level?

I wonder what material (the white part) was used for the knobs and selector? Corian, resin or just painted/polished plastic?
It look soooo nice.

 

[Swissbob]

Ceramic AFAIK.

Ferrari is a bit different as every collector knows if they don’t get the Luce they wont be getting any of the limited edition cars. Also it’s rumored to look extremely striking, very different to anything else on the road.

Cullinan is not an EV and Ferrari is not trying to push as much volume Land Rover. Doesn't make the case.

Very good review in which the touch stupidity has been mentioned very well.

This is probably the biggest issue with that car, fun fact, the first MY had physical controls for the HVAC, but the bean counters changed it for the second MY.

Correct. However for MY27 they might be bringing back the panel of switch gear for terrain response. However I doubt they will bring back the user friendly os el of hvac controls as it would introduce more cost.
