UK design outfit dishes up its idea of a more refined Range Rover

By CARSIFU | 14 July 2023


LONDON: UK-based Kahn Design has unveiled the "Fintail" under its new Racing Green programme.

With the Fintail, Racing Green set out to embody the best of British engineering on land and in the air, drawing on diverse influences from over half a century of British motorsports heritage that evolved in the wake of seismic aerospace development during the 1940s.

The Racing Green Fintail cuts an imposing figure. Its three-spoke wheels, akin to a modern take on those found on Princess Diana’s 1995 Range Rover, sit below a sleek body accentuated by a full exterior styling package.

The styling package is comprised, at the front of the vehicle, of a single sweep front bumper valance which merges seamlessly into vented front bumper extensions, representing a subtle homage to the first Kahn Range Rover project.

Along the flanks are side skirts, bolstering the width of the vehicle with a fusion of influences from both ground effect racing machines of yesteryear and the stabilising fins found on modern fighter jets.

To the rear of the vehicle, a winged diffuser with additional stabilising fins re-emphasises the underlying design influences of the Racing Green Fintail.

The Racing Green Fintail unveiling also marks a celebration of the 20th anniversary of Kahn's original Range Rover project.
