V8 diesel pick of the Range Rover.

 It has always gone best when propelled by eight cylinders. The petrol versions always have been, but diesel Range Rovers have made do with as few as four turbocharged pistons, and more recently six. But that's not enough when there are over two and a half tonnes to drag about.

Which is why the Range Rover has at last got the diesel engine it has always needed: a twin turbo V8, an engine specifically designed for it and therefore optimised for the low down torque that a sizeable off-roader needs.
