Handling and road manners were far better than I expected in both dry and exceptionally wet conditions, and I really began to get a taste for the Range Rover Sport while puttering along in a torrential downpour. Inside, it's probably not any bigger than a BMW 5-series GT but it has that SUV aura and an impeccable look of class. No, the Range Rover Sport actually excels at transporting driver and passenger, plus luggage, in superb comfort with the sense of invincibility that's difficult to get from a low-riding sedan. And if he drooled on that fine mocha leather, it'd be off to the great foxhunt in the sky. As for the dog, to be honest, he'd probably fit but not with any room for luggage. My brother-in-law is a big guy and I'm lanky with the two of us in the front seats, we had to be careful not to squish the knees of our toddler passengers in the back. Gorgeous though the inside is, despite the notable absence of an Alcantara headliner, this is not a big interior, nor is the space well-utilized. If I had kids and a Labrador, this would be one of my SUVs of choice.ĭIGITAL EDITOR ANDREW STOY: As someone who has kids and a retriever (albeit Chesapeake Bay rather than Labrador), the Range Rover Sport is not my SUV of choice because none of that stuff fits in one comfortably. The exterior has strong military bearing and looks imposing, like the proverbial rolling fortress. Bury your foot from a standstill and hold on: This thing shoots to 50 mph and revs to 5,500 without breaking a sweat. The elevated road view was useful in seeing taillights far ahead on rain-slicked roads, which was critical in minimizing panic braking on what could have been a treacherous commute.īut the real star of the Range Rover Sport is this blown V8, which serves up the torque in gobs low in the band. Even during a rainy commute, the interior was isolated and serene. I mean that in a nice way this color looks as if it should be poured over ice and lightly stirred. The caramel-color leather and stitching are gorgeous, and the dashboard looks like someone slathered scotch all over it. The cabin is well-appointed and comfortable for an average-size guy like me.
