Land Rover fansite TheLandRoverChronicle.com is reporting that the new concept from Land Rover, the Range Sport (or Range Stormer) is being considered for feature in Bond's 21st adventure. It is rumored to be used by Bond in the exotic locales of the Australian outback and South Africa. No official word on the location of Bond 21 has been announced by MGM.

The 2005 Range Stormer is Land Rover's first concept car. It debuted at the 2004 Detroit Auto Show. Some brief highlights:

  • Supercharged V8 Engine
  • Four seats
  • Xenon headlights
  • Terrain Response technology with six driver-chosen terrain settings: dynamic (for high speed or winding tarmac roads), normal(for day-to-day driving), grass /gravel/snow (for slippery conditions, sand, deep ruts, rocks)
  • The technology is designed to deliver optimum suspension, powertrain, throttle response and traction control performance both on and off the road.

Aston Martin fans don't need to fret, however, as James Bond is still scheduled to ride in style in the AMV8 Vantage in 2005.
