land rover freelander 2 interiorThe new and chunkier, Freelander 2 is larger than the outgoing model. It is 50mm longer, 109mm wider and 32mm higher. It doesn’t seem much but it does make a difference. The body has lost its squared-off look in favour of a sportier image. As I said, it looks like a smaller version of the Range Rover Sport with a ‘fast-angled’ windscreen and a tapered rear pillar, which makes it look faster. The ‘floating roof’ is in evidence - an illusion created by the use of blackened roof pillars. At the back, a cleaner look has been achieved by re-locating the spare wheel under the boot floor.Inside, the Freelander 2 has a more spacious and luxurious feel to it depending on which of the five trim levels is chosen. All of the five (S, GS, XS, SE and HSE) are available with the TD4 engine but the ‘S’ is missing from the i6 menu. It’s the HSE that has full-leather upholstery as standard, in a choice of three colours. The SE and XS have fabric seat facings and leather side bolsters while the S and GS have patterned and plain cloth-covered seats.
The fascia is a variation of the Standard Land Rover issue, by which I mean an array of horizontal and vertical lines. A soft-touch material covers the dashboard and there are metallic or wood facings and insets, again, depending on the trim level and with the exception of the S and GS, which are clearly seen as the workhorses of the range.
