What are the differences please between MY2015 and MY 2015.5?

I don’t have the list, it is on here somewhere. The engines were improved making the tax go down and bhp/ torque go up. Also get the gesture tailgate and some other stuff. Worth a google, there are a few articles from when it was released (I’ve just bought a 65 plate) Range Rover Sport HSE DYnamic SDV6 Velocity blue 2020 MY
Range Rover sport HSE Dynamic P400e Silver
Range Rover Sport 3.0 SDV6 HSE Dynamic 2016 MY
Range Rover sport 3.6tdv8HSE 2007 Gone
Range Rover sport 2.7tdv6SE 2005 Gone
Range Rover sport 2.7tdv6SE 2007 honey
Range rover Vogue 2005 4.4 - GONE and missed
BMW 535d M sport 2006 - GONE not as missed
BMW X5 4.4 2004 sport - GONE

Gesture tailgate was 16. 

It wasn’t, I’ve just spent weeks looking for one. It goes on the 15 reg onwards model and was fitted on all the 306bhp ones I looked at (some 15 plates and all 65 plates had it). It’s on mine which is a Sept 15 model. Range Rover Sport HSE DYnamic SDV6 Velocity blue 2020 MY

For the SDV6, the differences are as follows:

Euro6 306hp/700nm engines started to come in from MY15.5 (March 2015) ready for the mandatory switch over in September 2015, so you will find EU6 in some MY15.5 15 plates, but not all. MY16 started Sep 2015 on the 65 plate, all MY16 cars are Euro6.

Euro 6 legislation had to be implemented by all manufacturers by the 1st of September 2015, which meant they couldn't sell anything 'new' that wasn't compliant after that date. LR started to make the switch in March for MY15.5, and by September they had everything in place for the MY16. So because EU6 was mandatory from September 2015, but LR started to introduce the EU6 engine in March 2015 (MY15.5), some 15 plate cars are EU5 and some are EU6. To confuse matters even further the LR website sometimes doesn't get the right classification for EU5/EU6 engine, so it doesn't display correctly for some cars, worth double checking though if it's a 15 plate car you're interested in.

All Euro6 engines are 306hp/700nm, 185 g/km, £240pa road fund. If you live in London EU6 is not subject to the T-Charge (well mine isn't anyway|).

On the AB, MY15/My15.5 have the same spec/controls inside.

All Terrain Progression Control, Auto Access Height, Hands Free gesture tailgate and Wifi were all made standard for MY16 on the AB over MY15/15.5. Plus MY16 got the Software Interface update for the ICE system and some dash button relocating.

Yes it would, I have a2015.5MY , 19th March 2015 build, it has not got a gesture tailgate. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Thanks for the info guys. So apart from the engine upgrade there were no other changes?

Sept 15 would be a MY16 vehicle, wouldn't it?

Yes, mine's a 15.5 model and was built in March 2015. No gesture tailgate.

Was HUD available on MY15? 

Bringing up this old topic. I have double checked and my car is the 306hp engine although it comes up as a Euro5 - it doesn't have adblue. Can this be right?

Yes it can! My old RRS was built in May 2015 (15 Registration) and was 306HP without AdBlue. It also showed up on ToPix as Euro 5!!!

Damn - I’m sure my dealer said it was Euro 6!

So what is the difference between our engines and Euro 6 ones (apart from the adblue) - don't they both have CO₂Emission of 185g/km?

According to the dvla they do, yes. [/quote] MY15.5 HSE
