In case you’ve always had a thing for Range Rovers as well as classic British cars from Bentley and Rolls-Royce, than you’ll find this Alcraft project pretty interesting.
It seems that the entire styling concept was developed with input from a group of students at the London College of Art and brought a Range Rover with a dashing and far more luxurious appearance.

To be honest, there's nothing particularly wrong with the 2013 Range Rover, this is just a different look, one which we actually like. It definitely reminds us of the modern day Rolls, by using very thin headlights and taillights. Alcraft design consultant Matthew Humphries said “We’ve made it more elegant by simplifying the lines and have given it the timelessness associated with the best British design. We’ve also differentiated it more from the other Range Rover models and I think we’ve achieved a more limousine-like presence while ensuring a degree of classic British understatement.”

If by any chance it caught your eye, know that this Range Rover styling concept is not the only one, Alcraft currently looking into other design directions, exploring them for production. This includes the smaller Evoque compact SUV, 2014 Range Rover Spor and even the Jaguar XK Shooting Brake.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
