No-Limit Rang Rover SV

from The Underpowered Hour · host Underpowered Hour

Steve Beres and Ike Goss discuss the presale launch of Chery’s new Freelander 8 and why Chinese vehicles face bans in places like the United States while gaining ground in the UK, including ownership-related legislation that impacted Polestar. They react to the Freelander’s “L-A-D-Y” passenger-seat acronym, joke about future models, and note rising JLR China profits as old Evoque stock clears and a former plant becomes a “Freelander Super Factory.” The conversation shifts to the new Range Rover GT—low roofline, minimal ground clearance, and built on JLR’s new electromodal architecture—plus Range Rover removing pricing limits for bespoke builds after a reported $550,000 example. They also cover a 50 million PR budget, a BYD/“Ti7” Defender-like SUV copy headed to Europe, workshop prep for NORRA Baja support vehicles, race-car parts arriving, and motorcycle trip plans.00:00 Show Intro and Hosts01:23 Freelander 8 Presale Buzz02:12 Chinese Car Bans and Ownership04:01 The LADY Seat Controversy05:13 Wheelander and Jimny Jokes06:44 China Stock Clearance and Super Factory08:28 Range Rover Model Explosion09:21 Range Rover GT Road Rover11:51 No Price Limit Special Editions14:39 Sauna Load Space Wishlist15:46 Ridiculous Options and Steel Wheels16:11 Farm Gear Mods16:26 Forbidden Luxury Interiors17:28 Wild Range Rover Features18:21 Just Make It Reliable19:37 JLR Bad Publicity Budget21:47 BYD Defender Clone26:07 Workshop Support Truck Plans27:39 Race Car Build Update28:45 New GS Motorcycle Talk30:24 Chicken Alaska And Denny's31:31 Closing Trail Signoff
