The Rover 400 Series, produced from 1990 to 1999, was a compact executive car that marked a significant departure from Rover's previous offerings. This model was developed in collaboration with Honda, utilizing the Honda Concerto platform and powertrains. The result was a car that offered a level of reliability and driving refinement previously unseen in Rover models. The 400 Series was available in a variety of body styles, including a 4-door saloon, a 5-door hatchback, and a 3-door hatchback known as the "Coupe." Its sleek, modern design, with sharp lines and a distinctive grille, helped it stand out in its segment. While the car shared its underpinnings with the Honda Concerto, Rover engineers injected their own character into the design, creating a distinct driving experience. The spacious interior, with its comfortable seats and well-appointed dashboard, reflected the car's targeted customer base, appealing to those seeking a balance between practicality and luxury. The Rover 400 Series was powered by a range of Honda-sourced petrol engines, ranging from the economical 1.4-liter unit to the more powerful 1.6-liter and 1.8-liter options. The 400 Series also featured a 2.0-liter diesel engine, providing an alternative for those prioritizing fuel economy. Despite its Honda heritage, the 400 Series maintained a distinctly British character. Its handling was precise and responsive, offering a comfortable and engaging driving experience. The car's suspension system, tuned for both comfort and sportiness, provided a balanced ride quality, making it equally well-suited to both city streets and open highways. The 400 Series was a popular choice for its combination of practicality, reliability, and comfort, making it a successful addition to Rover's lineup.
