Plan for California's Changing Conditions
One California road trip can include several climates. Heading to Big Bear or Lake Tahoe? Mountain roads may require traction devices or snow chains, so check conditions before you leave. Coastal routes to Monterey and Carmel often bring fog and wet pavement. Desert getaways to Palm Springs can swing from warm afternoons to chilly nights. Our team, serving Santa Ana, recommends packing layers, water, and a phone charger no matter where you're headed.
Let Land Rover Technology Help
Your Land Rover is built to make long drives easier. Use Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to keep your music and maps close at hand. The navigation system can help you find alternate routes around holiday traffic. Driver assistance features take some of the strain out of long highway stretches.
Surround-view camera systems also make parking easier in crowded resorts and shopping districts. Land Rover Newport Beach, serving Huntington Beach, is happy to show you how to use these features before your trip.
