It was developed in double-quick time, using a new body with **distinctive stepped roofline** on what was essentially a Range Rover chassis. The fashionable interior took its basic theme from Conran Design.

un tettuccio marcatamente inclinato


Explanation:
...o espressione simile. Guardando alle immagini della Range Rover, vedo che il tettuccio è sempre inclinato, in un modello ancora di più.
Perché "stepped"? Forse perché fa riferimento all'atto di salire i gradini, in cui un piede sta più in alto dell'altro. Il tettuccio della macchina ha infatti la parte anteriore più alta di quella posteriore.
Un'idea...
