The range includes a 3.2-litre V6, a 4.2-litre V8 and a very limited 6.0-litre W12. All models come with a six-speed automatic with manual shift capability.

Known Problems
All suffer from premature brake wear, requiring extremely expensive brake overhaul every 15,000 km. Battery dies in early models because navigation system stays on with ignition off, fixed by dealer reprogramming. Battery may die or key may not come out of ignition lock due to a bad battery ground connection under the driver's seat. Inside door handle springs require dealer fix. Computer, differential and transfer case problems lead to wheels binding and premature tyre wear, as if stuck in 4WD mode, and ESP light may come on, fixed by reprogramming the differential control module. Models with air suspension may sag after sitting because residual air valve corrodes, but revised valve is available from dealer. Early models need auto gearbox reprogramming to fix shifting delays and harshness. Various electrical problems affect instrumentation lights, rain-sensing wipers, temperature gauge and handbrake warning beeper, among others.
