The Ingenium engines meet the latest stringent emissions regulations, yet the new D350 diesel is capable ongoing from 0-60mph in well under seven seconds. However, CO2 emissions of 237g/km make it cleaner than the outgoing V8 diesel. A lower-powered D300 variant is also available.

A new HSE Dynamic Black trim level has been added to the Sport’s list of specifications too.

It joins the SVR Carbon Edition – available with the range-topping V8-powered Sport model – which brings a range of carbon fibre elements for the bonnet, front bumper insert and main grille and the HSE Silver, which adds privacy glass and 21-inch gloss black and contract diamond-turned alloy wheels to an already comprehensive list of standard equipment.
