"There’s something very British about the sound of a new Range Rover Sport going full pelt down the main straight at the Goodwood Motor Circuit. The noise of the 4.4-litre V8’s exhaust note bouncing around the pit garages is almost like a Spitfire flying overhead with its distinctive Merlin V12 growling away.

Behind the wheel of the all-new SUV is Matt Becker, Jaguar Land Rover’s new vehicle engineering director and the man responsible for leading the team fine-tuning the Range Rover Sport.

We say fine tuning because Becker has only been in his role for five months, following a seven-year stint at Aston Martin where he was responsible for, among many other things, the firm’s first SUV, the DBX – a competitor for the new Range Rover Sport. ...

From our brief test, the new car feels pretty much ready to go and already hugely impressive. So how much work has to be done on the car now? “We’re pretty much there to be honest,” said Becker.

That being the case, new Range Rover Sport customers have every reason to feel very excited."

Following hot on the heels of the new Range Rover that’s being launched this month, the new-generation Range Rover Sport is set to hit South African showrooms this October.

Billed as the most dynamic Range Rover to date, the new RR Sport is available in 10 derivatives that offer customers a wide range of trim grades (Dynamic S, SE, HSE, Autobiography and First Edition) and four engine choices, including petrol, diesel and hybrid. Pricing ranges from R2 million to R3 million.

Range Rover Sport Pricing (August 2022)

  • D350 Dynamic S - R2,001,200
  • D350 Dynamic SE - R2,062,100
  • D350 Dynamic HSE - R2,189,200
  • D350 Autobiography - R2,252,300

Turbocharged, 3.0-litre six-cylinder Ingenium engines kick off the line-up, with the D350 diesel offering 258kW and 700Nm, and the P400 producing 294kW and 550Nm.

The aforementioned turbopetrol is also available in a plug-in hybrid variant where a 105kW electric motor boosts the system output to 375kW, and a 38.2kWh battery offers a claimed range of up to 100km between charges.

But the real excitement is at the top of the range where a BMW-sourced 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 offers 390kW and a 4.5-second 0-100km/h run. But hurry, the numbers are limited on this one and less than 60 units have been allocated to South Africa, JLR says.

Land Rover Range Rover Sport review

WHAT'S THE VERDICT?

“One of the pioneering performance SUV 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. 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...
