After owning both engines in the JLUR and my JLR at altitude there is no comparison. Both with 37s. The V6 struggles to maintain speed on the passes and revs itself out to the max. Once you lose momentum, it takes a bit to get it back. The Turbo on the other hand makes it effortless. Barely downshifts and the boost makes it feel light.
Back in the flatlands you won’t notice the difference, other than the V6 high revving , flat torque curve VS the sometimes laggy boost of the 4 banger. The 4 does seem more spirited, but you can’t beat either engine to be honest. The 8 speed definitely makes up for a lot of the V6 deficiencies in altitude.
