The new Range Rover Sport is still the pick of the luxe SUV bunch, but a difficult decision looms, trust me, I understand.
There’s something inherently captivating about driving an SUV, particularly a high-end, luxury one. Having driven a few over the years, the allure ultimately lies in the elevated ride-height, which exudes a sense of superiority.
As sales figures have indicated, this sense of superiority is undeniably lucrative. Just ask Land Rover. Their new Range Rover Sport offers oodles of it, and then some. It’s a gorgeously svelte vehicle, especially in Firenze Red with eye- catching 23-inch wheels.
The RR Sport has consistently boasted a winning combination of performance and desirability. Beyond its aesthetics, this latest iteration of the Sport offers a dynamic ride that does an admirable job of concealing its overall heft.
The leather-clad interior is par for the course with this model; however, Land Rover has significantly enhanced the quality. The touchpoints are satisfyingly soft, and the tech on offer is impressive. With niceties such as a curved touch screen, Meridian sound system, and a plethora of advanced safety systems, the cabin is a lovely place to be.
Opt for the plug-in hybrid P460e if fuel efficiency is your top priority. If not, LR will gladly sell you the SV P635, a veritable iron fist in a velvet glove, boasting over 600 horsepower – admirable overkill.
The latest generation of the Range Rover Sport impresses with its stunning exterior and luxe cabin. With a selection of powertrains to choose from you’ll easily find your sweet spot. Now, the only decision left is between this or a Porsche Cayenne.
