SPIED: 2013 Land Rover Range Rover Spotted Testing, we get Our First Peek at the Interior

|

We have another round of spy shots of the all-new 2013 Land Rover Range Rover. While the exterior of the British firm's luxury SUV continues to wear plenty of camouflage, our scoopsters were able to snag the first photos of the Range Rover's interior.

If you pay close attention to the pictures, you'll notice several changes including the repositioned main air-vents that are mounted on the same level as the audio and navigation screen on the current model. Right below we find a massive screen for the infotainment system that takes plenty of real estate on the center stack.

The lower console is also new and seems to be positioned slightly higher than before.

The fourth iteration of the Range Rover family will sport aluminum body panels and Land Rover's new Premium Lightweight Architecture, which makes use of a higher percentage of aluminum in its construction. Altogether, Land Rover's weight saving measures are believed to shave as much as 1,000 pounds (450kg) off the current model.

And whilst the regular versions of the new Range Rover family will continue to rely on V6 and V8 diesels along with V8 petrols for select markets, the British brand is also working on more fuel-efficient and CO2 friendlier plug-in hybrid models featuring a similar setup to the Range_e concept.

According to sources, the new Range Rover will make its debut this year.
