2011–2012 Land Rover Range Rover TDV8 Specs & Performance

The 2011–2012 Land Rover Range Rover TDV8 represents a major diesel upgrade for the third-generation L322, replacing the earlier 3.6-liter V8 diesel with a new 4.4-liter LR-TDV8 and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The 4.4-liter V8 produces 309 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque on AutoSpecsHub, while Land Rover's official specification gives 313 PS and 700 Nm, essentially the same output expressed using different rating conventions.

What makes this TDV8 particularly important is the combination of substantial diesel torque and the new eight-speed transmission. Land Rover introduced the 4.4-liter engine specifically for the 2011 model year, with claimed improvements in power, torque, fuel economy, and acceleration over the outgoing 3.6-liter diesel. The result is a much more effortless long-distance Range Rover, while permanent AWD, low-range gearing, five-seat practicality, and the 7,716-lb towing capacity preserve the L322's ability to handle demanding work as well as luxury travel.
