Thoughts About The Ingenium Engine
Wow! 400 Horses is way too much to have for an SUV, even if the SUV sports a Land Rover badge. Having said that, what a beauty of an engine! It sounds powerful, feels powerful (from the pictures) and will make the SUV one of the heavyweights in the segment. Land Rover always seems to upgrade engines first. We have driven the Jaguar Portfolio 2.0D that features am Ingenium engine and we can tell you that the experience has been brilliant. We can't wait to test this beast out though!
