Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226

The Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 reaches 60 mph in 9.08 s (100 km/h in 9.54 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.12 s, tripping the lights at 86.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.03 s and the eighth mile in 11.40 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Range Rover 4.5 V8 226

The 1994 Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 2,031 kg with 223 bhp, which works out at 110 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 3.03 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 8,560th quickest to 60 mph, and the 43rd quickest of the 86 Land Rovers here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 86.6 mph, the 6,573rd highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 0-60 time?
The Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 reaches 60 mph in 9.08 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,560th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 quarter mile time?
17.12 s at 86.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.40 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.03 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 have?
223 bhp and 2,031 kg, which is 110 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226?
Closest here on pace: Chrysler Aspen 4.7 V8 2WD 235 (9.05 s), Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero/Shogun SWB 3.5 GDI V6 203 (9.10 s), Subaru Outback 2.5i 173 (9.16 s). Each one can be raced against the Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Land Rover Range Rover 4.5 V8 226 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
