    Land Rover’s six millionth production car stars at Shanghai

    The landmark Range Rover LWB Vogue SE finished in ‘Yulong White’ was completed on April 2. A bespoke puddle lamp graphic has been fitted, with the one-off motif replacing the standard Range Rover’s silhouette  that is projected by the car’s puddle lamps.

    It is created by an inscribed lens fitted within the door mirror-mounted downlight. The irradiated graphic, which is initially the width of a grain of rice, is projected through a magnifying lens onto the ground each time the vehicle is unlocked. The projected image measures 80cm in diameter.

    The six millionth Land Rover will be featured in a number of celebratory events being staged in China, as this year also marks the 45th anniversary of Range Rover production for the firm. More than 9,00,000 vehicles of the six million produced by Land Rover have been Ranger Rovers.

    The Jaguar-Land Rover Group sales operations director Andy Goss said: “It’s fitting that the six millionth Land Rover to be produced is a Range Rover, since this year marks the 45th anniversary of the original Range Rover’s Launch and even today, the vehicle remains peerless.”
