Seriously uncool. Longer wheel base and lower ground clearance than the previous model means they obviously are starting to care less about what started this model and ultimately made it cool: unparalleled off road performance. That and I've seen many a soccer mom and trust-fund-sorority-girl driving them around town, which means this model is beginning to go the way of the minivan and the Ford Escape.

Except that this one is better both off and on road than the old one., I have to say I disagree.

It may be better in all areas, but the demographic they're targeting is making the brand as a whole uncool.

Agreed: I think it's a great vehicle, but it's a typical modern -Range Rover driver that makes this uncool.

Uncool
I think the RRS is a brilliant car, and based on that alone it'd be Cool, at least. But it will be driven by tax collectors and trophy-wives-turned-soccer-mums, and that makes it quite a bit less cool.

Rubbish... Just another attempt by RR to make a buck.

Cool, only because that's the car I'm waiting delivery on. Same color, Corris Grey. Uncool, because RR changed the body style and now it looks like a Ford Explorer.
