The British carmaker has unveiled a new iteration of the LRX concept car seen at Detroit.
As predicted, the LRX shown at Geneva comes with a two-tone paint scheme in black and silver. The Geneva iteration features a removable carbon composite roof panel which contrasts with the silver-coloured roof, and has integral anchor points for fixing snowboards and other sports equipment. The black roof bars provide another option for roof-top loads, and a compact step above the rear bumper provides for easy roof-top access.
The LRX hasn’t been confirmed for production yet and Land Rover claims the LRX was designed to gauge public reaction to the idea of a small Land Rover models. However, some observers believe the company is currently developing a small SUV intended to reach out young buyer and decrease the fleet average CO2 emissions.
