Dimensions & weights

The L322 is a large, heavy luxury SUV. The figures below compare 2003 and 2012 specifications, with mirror position, suspension setting and weight definitions stated. Check the handbook for the exact car before using a figure for clearance or loading.

Exterior dimensions: 2003 model year

The essentials: The L322 is a large, heavy luxury SUV (~2.4-2.8 t), which explains its brake, tyre, gearbox and fuel appetite.

Dimension	2003 English handbook
Overall length	4,950 mm
Width, mirrors folded	2,009 mm
Width, mirrors out	2,191 mm
Height, standard suspension setting	1,863 mm
Wheelbase	2,880 mm
Track, front / rear	1,629 / 1,626 mm

These are model-year examples, not dimensions for every L322.

How dimensions changed

Model-year specification	Length	Height	Width, mirrors out
2003 English handbook	4,950 mm	1,863 mm, standard	2,191 mm
2012 UK specification	4,972 mm	1,877 mm	2,216 mm

For the 2012 UK specification, width is 2,034 mm with mirrors folded and height is 1,837 mm at access height. These two examples do not establish the dimensions of every intervening model year.

Weights

Model-year specification	Published mass and definition
2003 petrol	2,440-2,570 kg, approximate EEC kerb weight with full fuel tank
2003 diesel	2,435-2,570 kg, same handbook definition
2012 UK 4.4 TDV8 / 5.0 Supercharged	2,810 kg, mass in running order including fluids, 90% fuel and a 75 kg driver

These definitions differ, so the figures are not a like-for-like comparison of engine weights. Check the car's plate and handbook before calculating payload. See payload and loading limits for the loading calculation.

Ground clearance & capacity

The 2003 specification gives 281 mm minimum ground clearance at off-road height.
The 2012 UK specification gives 232 mm at standard height and 283 mm at off-road height. Suspension settings and measurement definitions matter.
For 2012 UK cars, published loadspace is 994 litres with rear seats upright (983 litres with the optional reclining seats reclined), or 2,099 litres with rear seats forward. Use these stated seat positions rather than treating these as a universal boot-volume range.

Overall body height, ground clearance and suspension travel are different measurements; no single fuel-range figure applies to every engine and journey.

Notes

NOTE Always verify exact dimensions and weights for a specific car by its handbook/VIN, market, year, wheels and options all shift the numbers.
