The Freelander 2 Sport is available with the powerful and economical 2.2-litre TD4 diesel power unit.

The Freelander 2 Sport will be available with two deriatives and two colours, Santorini Black and Lago Grey. Both will feature exclusive 19” limited edition diamond turned alloy wheels, a unique two tone interior together with a rear spoiler and colour keyed exterior trim and matching door handles and mirror casings.

There will be a standard model available in both Black and Lago Grey with cloth interior and one with a sports styling pack available only in Lago Grey. A unique two-tone interior is introduced on both derivatives, in contrasting Ebony and Storm. The derivative featuring the sports styling pack will offer a leather interior and the standard version with a cloth/leather interior. The sporty theme continues through the cabin, with an Ebony-coloured centre-console and lower fascia complemented with two-tone door casings. The Sport emblem is embossed on the front and outer rear seat head restraints, with Storm coloured stitching on all seats. Prices start from £26,695 on the road.
