The Land Rover Freelander marked a significant shift for the brand, being its first model to adopt a unibody structure and later offering a two-wheel-drive option, breaking away from its traditional body-on-frame 4WD designs.
From 2002 to 2005, the Freelander was powered by a 2.5L V6 engine producing 174 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.
Available in all-wheel drive (AWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) configurations, it showcased Land Rover's move toward more versatile and road-friendly SUVs while maintaining off-road capability.
The Freelander's second generation further transitioned the model into the compact crossover class.
