The Sport combines Range Rover luxury with genuinely capable off-road hardware — a combination no rival matches.
The Range Rover Sport has always occupied an unusual space — more dynamic than the full-size Range Rover, more luxurious than a Discovery. The latest generation doubles down on both strengths.
We drove the P400 MHEV on road and off it at a Land Rover experience day.
The Sport hides its two-tonne mass well. Adaptive air suspension keeps body roll in check through corners, and the supercharged six-cylinder delivers effortless pace. The cabin is whisper-quiet at motorway speeds, with the Meridian sound system doing justice to the isolation.
Land Rover's Terrain Response system makes off-roading accessible.
Fuel consumption averaged 12.4L/100km in mixed driving. Not efficient, but expected for the performance and weight on offer.
The Range Rover Sport remains the only luxury SUV that genuinely excels both on the school run and on a muddy trail.
Nothing else in the segment offers this breadth of ability.
