Land Rover Range Rover Sport review
“One of the pioneering performance SUVs uses plug-in power to stay relevant in its third generation”
Good stuff
Some smart and swish PHEV options, plusher driving experience than gnarlier rivals
Bad stuff
The price has jumped about £15k, number plates arguably in the wrong places, very heavy
What is it?
It’s the third generation of one of the performance SUV pioneers. The Range Rover Sport first launched in 2005, back when quick 4x4s were still in their infancy. Now everyone’s at it, giving the lads and lasses in Gaydon a tougher task than ever keeping theirs relevant.
The Sport follows a few months after the full-fat Range Rover’s reinvention. It’s 35 per cent stiffer and sits 20mm lower - to help justify its suffix - and comes with four-wheel drive as standard, hooked up to an array of petrol, diesel and hybrid powertrains.
Yep, diesel soldiers firmly on here, and kicks the range off at a smidge over £80,000. That gets you a D300 - three litres, six cylinders and a mite under 300bhp - in base SE trim. ‘Base’ being purely a relative term in the Range Rover universe, of course. We wish you the best of luck spending just that, though; options pile on easily and the flagship P530 - with a 523bhp, twin-turbo V8 engine under its clamshell bonnet - kicks off at a stocky £116,190.
Diesels and V8s? Is it really relevant?
Worry not! There is a plug-in hybrid at launch, too, while a fully electric version lands in 2024. The former comes in two specs, offering either 434 (P440e) or 503bhp (P510e) peaks. Both claim to offer 70 miles of electric-only range - let’s call it 50 in the real world - and Land Rover reckons 75 per cent of its customers’ journeys can potentially be covered with zero local emissions. And, of course, zero engine noise.
If your journeys are usually so short, then there’s naturally an argument you don’t really need a plush, £100k SUV. But there’s rarely been a great deal of rationality applied by anyone purchasing a car in this increasingly crowded corner of the world. If three-ton lumps must crawl around urban environments, then we’re at least all significantly better off if they’re doing so more eloquently.
How heavy?
It’s a big old beast with a bunch of batteries aboard, there’s no denying that. Land Rover claims an unladen weight of ‘from 2,810kg’ for the PHEV, and we measured a P440e test car at 2,860kg with half a tank of fuel. Land Rover likes to talk a lot about its reductive design, it doesn’t like to be reminded at all of its additive engineering strategy. ‘Just keep piling the weight on, no-one minds’ seems to be the plan. which means you’ll soar past three tonnes by filling yours with fuel, family members and their belongings. But most mainstream manufacturers appear to have long since given up on fighting size and weight, concentrating instead on mitigating their effects with technology.
The latest Sport certainly packs an arsenal of that. An optional handling pack brings all-wheel steering, an electronic differential, brake-based torque vectoring and something called Dynamic Response Pro - a 48V anti-roll programme to help the car corner somewhat flatter than physics might otherwise wish. Low-gearing as well as hill descent and terrain response systems gives it Land Rover’s usual 4x4 cred, too. It doesn’t break the rules of physics though. That same P440e took 108 metres to stop from 100mph, and over 40 metres from 60mph, some of the worst braking figures we’ve ever recorded.
What's the verdict?
“One of the pioneering performance SUVs uses plug-in power to stay relevant in its third generation”
There’s evolution and revolution all at once here. Smart plug-in hybrids launch the third-gen Range Rover Sport and a fully electric version follows soon after, but those loyal to the brand (and buying their umpteenth example) ought not to feel too frazzled by the new aesthetic inside and out.
It’s very cleanly designed, well executed and desirable, if not as convincingly and confidently executed as the full house Range Rover. The design here is more anonymous. And forget any pretence of sportiness. The weight sees to that. But handling prowess was never the Sport’s bag - it’s about attitude, and this still has it. Plus comfort, image and luxury.
Land Rover knows how to nod back to its tradition better than most. And in a world of increasingly gnarly performance SUVs, the comparatively plusher edge of the latest Sport does exactly that. Just watch the price as the options pile on...

God please I want this car in white color Amen I received it by Faith thank you Lord Jesus forever Graceful 🙏💯🔥🙌
Nothing like praying to God for a materialistic item. You may want to get your priorities lined out
@@Ripped677bro shut up who are you to judge God
Me too!
Then it gets stolen .
Our focus when we pray to the only true Almighty God of the living word the Bible should be of thanks for His son Jesus Christ and that we are atoned only through faith and grace in Jesus and what He did for us willingly and freely on the cross for sinners like us. Plus his will be done in our lives.
Alhamdulilah,,semoga dapat membelinya suatu hari nanti,,
What’s the exterior color called?
Giola green. I work for them haha
😂 gọi là màu xanh hy vọng đó bạn,mong rằng một ngày nào đó tôi sẽ được sở hữu e nó, biết là rất khó nhưng tôi vẫn mơ, Việt Nam xin chào các bạn
Varisine blue or something of the sort
@@habibmuhammad2952You work there? Which SUV is the most beloved? The Aston 707, correct?
What a beauty 🔥
I want this in matte black.
Me, in mate smoky-black.
Keep dreaming lol
@@peterchilds2436 🙏🏿
Me satin mate black
It will spend more time in garage being fixed I’m afraid
Itˋ s got 4 wheels and a steering wheel..the music played would be more appropriate for the eruption of a volcano…it’s a mode of transport that sits in a traffic jam just like the Fiat 500 in front of it.
* * I would rephrase the title:
"THE MOST ONGOING MONEY PIT VEHICLE, LEAST RELIABLE AND LEAST DEPENDABLE...
....but GOOD LOOKING ! * *
BELLEZA, toda una nave sobre ruedas, indiscutiblemente lo mejor.❤
Looks great, but is it reliable, or just like its predecessors.
Did you ever have one? I am driving RR sport SVR 2021reg almost 2years without any issue absolutely perfect car not like previous MB s63 amg 2019 reg in 2 years of owing was 8 month in the MB garage for repairs with a lot of issue
Beautiful hai Raj
I’ve had 4 Range Rover Sports, in a row over last many years, just bought 4th 2024 RR Sport, last month. ALL were very reliable. No problems. Last one has 130,000 miles, never had a problem, routine maintenance. Decided it was time to upgrade, but kept the old one too. Have had manyother luxury cars over the years, but these are my favorites.
The best looking car ever exterior and interior
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Oh wow so great 👍 very beautiful and very good design for the new 🆕 generation hument very easy to drive and comfortable ❤.
Πολύ όμορφα αυτοκίνητα,πολύ καλό πάτημα στον δρόμο,πολυτελείς ,ασφαλή,και πολύ ακριβά.απλά μου κάνει εντύπωση που λένε ότι δεν είναι καθόλου αξιόπιστα!! Είναι ένας λόγος που θα το αγοράσει αυτός που δεν τον ενδιαφέρουν τα χρήματα πιστεύω.
What color is this I love it! Can’t wait to buy mine.
im driving the last version . I know this looks new and fancy but I like my old one
Just keep loving your old one, I am looking forward to my new RRS in Q1 2024.
Looks like a Range Rover Velar in the front. The Velar is still the best designed Range Rover.
It has a Velar look from outside, but the interior is a true Range Rover
A esta marca le gusta visitar los talleres 😮
No job ,no cash just a young man with a dream 😊...🙏
This car is so beautiful and advanced
Thank You for raising the bar of excellence

This is the most world prestigious suv ever made non of the car engineer will ever get dream to
Modify this super piece love the past love the present and love the furture model range rover is the one who lid the world 😘😘
It's always someone with negative things to say. All vehicles break down. Ferrari BMW Lamborghini Maserati and other expensive brands have reliability problems too. You would think that people know that the Automotive industry fix things over time
True
Teslas ?
I have to buy two. The reason is that one goes to the service center and one needs to be ride
Did you ever have one? I am driving RR sport SVR 2021reg almost 2years without any issue absolutely perfect car not like previous MB s63 amg 2019 reg in 2 years of owing was 8 month in the MB garage for repairs with a lot of issue
Body wise... there are only a couple differences from the 2022. Engine wise, its definitely not as impressive as the 2022 SVR engine.
The screens do have better resolution but the one screen in center is not good. Its to small.
Sadly 2024 is the last of v8s. Ill wait to trade in to see what comes next.
COME ON RANGE!! STEP UP THE GAME
I bet there are a large number of options on
N that car!!
Вид просто шикарный, но главное одно то что остался V8 двигатель, хоть и оцечка на обороты. Но главное это свр🔥
Is that Petrolix Blue or Giola Green?
Sleek luxurious machine
Wow, what color is this?
My Dream car ❤️
Stunning!!! Anyone knows the colour on this?
Giola green metallic
Great looking vehicle ❤
Wow absolutely stunning
Que sonho mano!!♥️☹️
I'm going to buy this model of range
Goddd this is something else 🎉🔥love it ❤
Nice, sounds just like a BMW! 👍
Amazing colour
I saw an electric Range Rover go through a ford recently. It wasn't that deep and the Range Rover broke down. Word of warning is all.
What colour is that?
Linda linda linda parabens gostei o valor dela? O valor??
NICE CAR
Schöner, besser und edler geht nicht! ❤
What color is this
Mind blowing design
I need to work hard 💫
ntah taun berapa bakal hadir di indonesia..pasti bakal lebih mahal...
В чем драматичность??? С тем же успехом можно было написать: «Самый эпистолярный» или «Самый ретроградный» или «Самый виртуозный» или «Самый космополитичный» … бред полный!!
Parabéns por essa máquina tão linda aí é um sonho se Deus permitir eu sonhar Deus fará acontecer esse sonho vira realidade eu creio ❤❤❤
When will be new Velar??
Needs black exhaust pipes.
Guys so would you buy this over a Porsche cayenne s
Stunning
Range rover elegance
So much to go wrong a expensive ticket 🤑
Lov8ng that colour 🩵 💙
Pra ter um carro desse e andar tranquilo pelas ruas só nos EUA mesmo, porque no Brasil pode até andar mas tem que blindar ela toda.
Rapaz.....que sonho!!!!!
엔진소리가 좋구만
Excellent automobile from India.
How much?
Magnificent !
Где то уже были эти ручки дверей и приборка -у китайцев.
THIS IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE CARS
Só a cor já é um show aparte! Em termos de luxo e conforto os britânicos sempre a frente dos alemães.💥🔥🇧🇷
Now owned by indians and indian tata management
how much the price of this kind of car
Lovely car but I completely do not understand substitution of chrome with black. Chrome is what gives detailing and makes the car more luxurious. Luxurious cars also go with beige interior.
I own this vehicle and approve this message!
Football players’ wives needed.
On the road cost of this
PRICE???
Seats are ugly, I like the edition 1
jasne, ze dramatyczny! Tak czesto sie psuja ze to dramat! :-)

@@waclawbarc well, that's why I stick to the Porsche brand. Playing roulette with car reliability isn't my cup of tea. AMG (not necessarily MB in general) are as unreliable as LR products. I know that. And first year of production of any model and any brand is prone to issues. And this one here is RRS in first production year... Regardless congrats on the cars! Enjoy!
Don’t buy one they have Chinese Sensors and the factory in China has closed like most Chinese companies now , China is facing a Commercial crisis and Parts and replacements are no longer being made .. Making getting spares impossible and Landrover doesn’t have the software to make their own, So Landrover will have to redesign the Onboard Computer Systems themselves… You have been warned…
What like seriously?😢😢
@@ahmedsheriff5011 Just search China’s Commercial Businesses Closures on CZcams see for yourselves
В чём драма?
em này giá bao nhiêu
اللهم اني اسالك من فضلك ورحمتك فانه لا يملكها الاانت
One day i bought this❤
Yeh top model hai
Just Class!
Es eléctrico?
ماشاءالله تبارك الله الخالق ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️
Amin
Oh wow so great 👍 and very beautiful 😍❤️ and the engine 🚂🚒 very strong and powerful for the off 🛣️ road 💪🛣️ or high way and very good design with the new 🆕 technology for the new 🆕 generation hument and very easy to drive and comfortable with the safety 🦺❤.
I Love it, can't Wait 🤒
Colour achha hai
Nice car
Цена?
its really big
One thing that Range Rover seems to be getting wrong is the dimension. People prefer big, menacing and muscular full size SUVs with curves, creases and vents. Range Rover seems to be aiming to make their SUVs a bit too sleek and a bit too plain. The once iconic Jaguar missed the bus and is way too far behind Mercedes Benz, BMW and Audi to catch up now because of a similar approach. Plus Range Rover seriously needs to focus on more power trains.
No they don't!
@@allentyson5475
Just a pointer.
Chevrolet Escalade units sold in USA in 2022 : 40,250.
Range Rover Land Rover units sold in USA in 2022 : 12,999.
That's a point to ponder.
People buy what they can afford. Most people can't afford RR, but they damn would like one instead of some big ass barge. That like saying I can't stand that little Porsche Cayenne S Sport. I prefer my big assed Cadillac Escalade. Man please! Chiseled works much better than taking up two parking spaces at one time.
@@gt9003 Rolls Royce Cullman sold less units than Chev Escalade. You're talking two different classes of cars. You need to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges.Escalade is not in the same class as Escalade. You know that.
I was going to say the same thing. Too sleek. The RR Sport should look like a Sport and not a mini version of the big boy. I did like it at first until seeing it in person.I’ll be moving on if I don’t buy my current lease.
Amen. Thank you Jesus.
It’s made by Indian, beautiful product to look at but with many defects.
