2022 Range Rover Sport

Smooth, luxurious new Range Rover Sport arrives in South Africa

As befits a Range Rover, the offroading DNA remains.

Land Rover claims the Sport is the most capable version of their its luxury performance SUV, with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive and the latest all-terrain innovations and technology including a new feature called Adaptive Offroad Cruise Control that allows the driver to select from four settings.

The Terrain Response 2 automatically detects the surface and terrain and adapts the chassis and wheels to best deal with the challenge and informs and prompts the driver via the Pivi Pro touch screen.

A long way off the original short stick low range and manual diff lock.

The Range Rover Sport comes with a five-year/100 000km Land Rover Care Warranty and Maintenance Plans.

Land Rover Range Rover Sport review

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. 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...

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.

Manhart Create Menacing Range Rover Sport With 641 HP (478 kW)

Manhart recently showed us a drastic creation based on the limited BMW M4 CSL called the MH4 GTR II but now they have gone a little more subtle on the large new Range Rover Sport.

They have called it the MANHART Sport SV 650 and we are sure you can guess what the 650 stands for in that name. Yes, that is horsepower (in PS) which equates to 641 bhp (478 kW). That makes it 118 hp (88 kW) more potent than the stock Range Rover Sport P530 First Edition on which it is based.

They will be making just 10 units in this form but if you want more, they are planning to take the package even further in the future.
