Land Rover Freelander (Commercial) – compact SUVs registered as commercial vehicles: Freelander 1 and 2, four- and six-cylinder engines of 1.8 to 3.2 litres, N1 registration with two seats
This page gathers Freelander models from Land Rover registered as two-seat commercial vehicles – listed as "COMMERCIAL" in the register: the compact SUV Land Rover built in Solihull from 1997 as the Freelander 1, and the larger Freelander 2 built from 2006. The Commercial version replaces the rear seat with an enclosed load area and is registered as an N1 commercial vehicle in several European countries, bringing tax and registration advantages over the passenger version.

The register lists 22 versions with 72 to 118 kW from four- to six-cylinders of 1,797 to 3,192 cm³, unladen weights from 1,450 to 2,025 kg, gross weights from 1,960 to 2,505 kg and widths from 1,750 to 2,100 mm.
The Freelander was popular with tradespeople, forestry businesses and rural commercial use because it combined the off-road ability of an SUV with the more favourable taxation of a van; in this niche it competed with commercial versions of the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V.
On both generations, rust on the sills and floor pan, the condition of the viscous coupling or, on the Freelander 2, the electronic Haldex four-wheel-drive system, the timing chain and cylinder-head gasket on the TD4 diesels, and the mileage count; parts run through the Land Rover network.
