New Range Rover Sport

From £83,620

Off-road or in the city, the Range Rover Sport will take your driving to another level. This premium SUV simply demands attention wherever you go. With over 70 global awards under its belt, it’s no doubt that the Range Rover Sport is a force to be reckoned with. Superior styling, smart technology and class leading capability off and on the road, all contribute to its prominent stance on the SUV market.

Technology and Interior

The interior of the Range Rover Sport is designed to give luxury to each and every one of your off-road adventures. 14-way adjustable and heated Oxford leather seats offer outstanding comfort for you and your passengers, so everyone can sit back, recline and enjoy the views from your Range Rover Sport. And if you’ve got a taste for a bit more splendour, add the optional Rear Seat Entertainment system which comes with two 11.4” screens.

An ergonomic design allows a simplified, driver orientated control layout to minimise distractions while driving. In the Range Rover Sport, it’s all centered around you. You can customise each car in the range to suit you. So if you like your seats a little plusher or your car a little cooler, you can upgrade your leather or select features like 3-zone climate control. No wish is too great. Not forgetting Head-Up Display, a feature which will project useful information such as speed, gear position, cruise control detail, traffic sign recognition and navigation directly onto the windscreen so you can keep your eyes on the road.

Space

The space inside of the Range Rover Sport is excellent giving all the occupants of the vehicle enough room to get comfortable with loads of adjustment to make sure everything is to your needs.

As any exceptional SUV should, the Range Rover Sport offers an impressive load-space capacity of 835 litres, with that increasing to 1,860 litres if you fold down the rear seats.

Driver assist systems

The Range Rover Sport offers safety considerations that are second to none. Many of which, such as Anti-lock Braking System, Electronic Brake-Force Distribution and Emergency Brake Assist, come as standard. But that’s not all, other groundbreaking tech in the Range Rover Sport is designed to make your driving that bit more amazing.

Torque Vectoring is available in the HSE Dynamic Trim and up, balancing engine torque between all four wheels to improve grip and overall handling. In the Sport, you needn’t flinch at the sight of a steep hill. With Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist, driving has never been easier. And it’s never been so much fun!

Range Rover Sport Review

There is a new third generation Range Rover Sport which aims to take that usual Sport recipe but elevate it with more technology and even more upmarket touches.

What is it?

You can’t underestimate just how popular the Range Rover Sport has been in the UK. Throughout its series of generations it has gone from strength to strength, finding favour with drivers up and down the country who appreciate its high level of luxury and strong levels of refinement.

Now there’s a new third generation car which aims to take that usual Sport recipe but elevate it with more technology and even more upmarket touches.

What’s new?

This isn't just a refresh, oh no. Instead, we’ve got a fresh slate for the Sport, bringing a bold new exterior look, a series of engine options and some clever new equipment. Features such as all-wheel-steering - which helps to make the car more agile at lower speeds while remaining stable at greater ones - is included too.

Land Rover has also equipped the Sport with its latest infotainment system, too, which should help to transform the experience.

What’s under the bonnet?

Land Rover has kitted the new Sport out with some clever new plug-in hybrid powertrains, which will be a great option for those who do shorter journeys or find the idea of travelling in their large SUV on electric power alone.

But the car we’re looking at here has a more traditional turbocharged diesel setup, albeit with the addition of mild-hybrid technology to help boost efficiency. It can manage a reasonable 36.7mpg, too, while CO2 emissions stand at 202g/km.

What’s it like to drive?

The familiar traits remain with the new Sport, just as they always have done; you’ve got a nice upright driving stance, loads of visibility and a general feeling of confidence. It’s why buyers have consistently flocked to it, in fairness. But the steering has some nice weight to it, too, while that all-wheel-steering really helps at slow speeds too.

This engine is a great fit for the Range Rover Sport, too. It’s really refined and gives the Sport a very impressive 0-60 mph time of 5.6 seconds, too. So there’s more than enough performance on tap for all occasions.

How does it look?

It’s at the back of the Sport where you’ll see the most changes have occurred. The front end will appear familiar to those well-versed with the previous generation car, though it has been lifted with sharper headlights and a smoother grille.

But no, it’s at the rear where you’ll notice the biggest difference. It’s akin to the design of the full-fat Range Rover, with a smoothed out look and sharp lights combining to make it strikingly different to the car it replaces.

What’s it like inside?

Step inside the cabin of the Sport and it’s easy to see where improvements have been made. The fit-and-finish feels better, while the material quality has been lifted even further than the still-good predecessor. The forward part of the cabin is wide, while the seats are brilliantly comfortable and have loads of adjustment too.

Those in the rear of the car are well catered for as well. Headroom is excellent, while even with a taller driver there’s still plenty of legroom on offer. Many versions offer heated seats in the back of the car, too.

What’s the spec like?

It’s fair to say that the Range Rover Sport remains a premium purchase. You do get plenty of standard equipment, mind you, with highlights including a head-up display and four-zone climate control.

The inclusion of JLR’s Pivi Pro infotainment system is a real boost, too. It’s great to look at and packed with features, all housed within a 13.1-inch touchscreen. It’s nice that when you use Apple CarPlay that the phone mirroring stretches the full width of the screen, too.

Verdict

Land Rover has managed to really push the game forward with the new Sport. It’s just as luxurious as before, yet it’s even more refined and far more accomplished inside, too. The level of technology on offer is far superior to that in the car it replaces, too.

The diesel engine in this version is really impressive, too, though the option of a plug-in hybrid powertrain makes the Sport even more appealing.
