Off-Road Pack for $1550?
I'm configuring a 2021 X Dynamic HSE and am a little unclear why the Off-Road Pack costs $1550. It seems to include only 3 things; Domestic Plug Socket, Electronic Active Differential and Off-Road Tires. If I do not select it, the Off-Road Tires can be added for $350 and the Electronic Active Differential for $0. So, why would anyone spend $1200 on the Domestic Plug Socket?

I'm really wondering if I'm missing something obvious here...

Have you added any other packs or off road specs that included the rear e diff? Got to be careful with these packs as some include the Sam items you have selected elsewhere

I've added the Towing Pack which here in the States adds:
- All Terrain Progress Control
- Terrain Response 2
- Configurable Terrain Response
- Advance Tow Assist
- Tow Hitch Receiver

So I specifically asked about this

Without the off-road pack, you can't get the E-diff. It's a configurator error that you can select it for $0 and will not fulfill. Only way to get it in the states, at least according to my dealer, is to option the off-road pack.

interesting that in the US you need to specify the pack, in OZ you can specify the E-diff (which i had fitted)
as a stand alone factory option at $806 Australian, which is about $620 US under "Options", Capability and
dynamics. Simon that is about 400 of her majesties pounds, i cannot fathom why LR charge 1000 in the UK
market, well apart from greed

The complete car is much more expensive than USA and some of the options too.

Not sure why the regional difference.

Someone with too much time on their hands should do a spread sheet comparing model prices and extras across range an locations. - but cars seem between 20 and 30% more in UK than USA? Tax?

Another expensive one is the TR2 package (Advanced Off Road Capability) - just software (as far as you can see) - £1070

Rear Diff £1020

Activity key £325 ($200 in USA)

Front Undershield - £844

I needed the Tow pack so that included TR2, APTC, Configurable etc, which in Aus cost $2329 AUD plus govt
charges, that includes the Tow hitch receiver (not the hitch) electrics, trailer assist etc.. about 1200 pounds.
possibly a more cost effective option depending on what they charge in the UK.. yet another pommie bar steward down under
