http://www.thelandroverchronicles.com/
"With increasing global demand and some added pressure for alternative fuel solutions that deliver better fuel economy, Land Rover will soon take further steps to offer a choice of clean diesel powertrains. Two new engines will soon be available, an entirely new 3.6 liter V8 diesel, scheduled for initial release in Range Rover and a reengineered 3.0 liter version of the current 2.7 liter TDV6 scheduled for 2008. These more powerful engines will give Land Rover and other Premier Automotive Group brands a boost in their home market and emerging markets such as North America where they will be introduced around 2008.
Land Rovers current TDV6 could be sold in the United States right now and some Land Rover enthusiasts have spotted diesel LR3 test mules, however the current 2.7liter engine wasn't engineered for North America. Increasingly stringent particulate and NOx emission regulations that go into effect next year would see this engine short lived in North America.
The all-new 3.6-litre V8 (around 3630 cc), based on the V6's Compact Graphite Iron (CGI) architecture, is tooling up for production and is expected to deliver around 250 bhp and well over 400 lb ft of torque.
The V8 will eventually be fitted in Discovery 3, Range Rover Sport, Jaguar XJ, new XK and S-Type. Meanwhile, the next generation Freelander is expected to see the current 2.7liter V6 diesel as an option.
Enthusiasts looking for more power from these diesels will have access to some very exciting options. Companies such as Superchips, Turbochips and Arden offer tuner chips that further boost engine performance. These enhancements have been very popular in Europe and often these tuner chips will not affect the standard factory warranty.
Additionally, it has been suggested that Ford in conjunction with Sintercast, leaders in CGI engineering, are working on an even more powerful 4.4 liter diesel V8. Rumors suggest this engine could replace the current Navistar V8 used in F250, F350 and eventually find its way into their popular F150."

Le 2.7 V6, c'est le HDi? Il est donc pas bon pour les USA, alors les Peugeots aux US c'est pas pour demain...
Le V8, pourraient le caser dans la 607 <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
moteur conçu par Ford pour les besoins de son groupe.
Et puis caser le V8 avec son couple dans un compartiment de 607...!
Et puis, comme de nombreux se plaisent à l'affirmer, une française haut de gamme avec un V8 personne n'en veut, c'est déjà nul avant d'avoir lancé la moindre esquisse.
