- Hamann's package lifts output 20 horsepower, and increases torque by 25 pound-feet.
- The aero kit includes a new front bumper with LED daytime running lights, fender extensions, side skirts, a rear bumper and a carbon-fiber roof spoiler.
- Huge wheels and interior accessories are also part of the tune.
LAUPHEIM, Germany — Tuning specialist Hamann has released a new upgrade program for the Range Rover with the supercharged 5.0-liter V8 power plant.
Hamann gives the luxury SUV a small power boost with an ECU remap that brings output to 530 horsepower and torque to 487 pound-feet. Two stainless-steel exhausts are offered — a standard setup with two twin-tipped exits and a central-mounted option.
The tuner installs an aerodynamics kit that consists of a front bumper with two LED daytime running lights, fender extensions, side skirts, a rear bumper and carbon-fiber roof spoiler. The side skirts add 2.3 inches of width to the front and 2.75 inches to the rear. This specific example also gets a set of 23-inch forged three-piece alloy wheels wrapped in tires sized 315/25; Hamann has a 22-inch set available as well.
Some of the additional interior goodies include a set of aluminum pedals, aluminum foot rest and floor mats. Hamann also offers a variety of emblems to dress up the exterior.
Inside Line says: A package that adds some flare to the Range's relatively subdued appearance.

I'm in agreement with the rest of you. This whole concept is cheezy and so 90's.
Would not be a good vehicle in The Great White North after a heavy snowfall on unploughed winter streets. A whole lot of damage to those lower body parts.

Wannabe X5M front bumper, old school honda civic ground effects. The stock version looks 100% better.

"Twenty-three-inch rollers add more personality to the Range Rover."
So they're calling it "personality" now-a-days. Huh.

WHY do this to a Range Rover? The Range Rover is the one car that I say does not need ANY modifications to its appearance. Do this to a Kia Sorento or something, I don't care, just LEAVE THE RANGE ROVER ALONE. Never been a fan of tuner cars and this is why.

wow...
Another proof that money is certainly not equal with class...
And another lame 'led' ripoff...

Good point! Maybe next time they will offer a lift kit or off road package for ferraris and lambos.

looks really bad. i cant fathom how stupid it is to put a lowered body kit on an offroad suv. its like putting mud and all terrian tires on a porsche 911.
the only modded range rover ive liked is the holland and holland one they featured on top gear

Way to take of the most understated yet purposeful and classic shapes in automotive history and ruin it...again. Next up Jag E-type with spinners and neon!!

Why not buy a suv that is meant to go fast? Lets take an off-road god and make it completely useless, yeah that'll sell. Most hideous ridiculous looking waste of money I have seen in a while.
