The Rover 400 Series was a range of compact cars produced by the British marque Rover from 1989 to 1999. It succeeded the Rover 200 series and was a significant departure from its predecessor, offering a more modern and stylish design. The 400 Series was based on the Honda Concerto platform, which allowed Rover to benefit from Honda's advanced technology and engineering expertise. This partnership was a key factor in the 400 Series' success, leading to reliable and well-engineered vehicles. The range encompassed various body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, and a four-door saloon. The Rover 400 Series was known for its comfortable and spacious interior, offering a roomy cabin for both passengers and luggage. The car's suspension setup provided a smooth and comfortable ride, while its handling was praised for its responsiveness and agility. Under the hood, the 400 Series featured a range of petrol engines, mostly sourced from Honda, including 1.4L, 1.6L, and 1.8L units. It also offered a 2.0L diesel engine option, providing fuel efficiency and lower running costs. The 400 Series was a sales success for Rover, contributing significantly to the brand's resurgence in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It was well-received for its combination of practicality, comfort, and driving pleasure, solidifying its position as a popular family car in the UK and other global markets.
