2014 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT
Covering just the very highest price point of a market is not enough to ensure long-term success in the current luxury industry; you must also focus on other price points. It would be a mistake to imagine that the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is a compromise even though it bridges the gap between the family-focused LR4 and the full-size Range Rover. This is a mid-size SUV, after all, and not a compact crossover. Land Rover went all out in the remodeling of the brand-new Land Rover Range Rover Sport. They gave it a new platform, a sleek new style, and a big improvement under the hood, beginning with the base model.
Overview:
The 2014 RANGE ROVER SPORT is offered in 4 trim levels:
- Autobiography
- HSE
- SE
- Supercharged
Performance and Fuel Economy
The new, lighter-weight Sport is propelled by the choice of two powerplants, both of which are supercharged. A 3.0L 24-valve V6 with 340 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, one of these powerplants performs an excellent job (0-100 km/h in 7.2 seconds). However, there’s no turning back once you’ve experienced the 5.0L 32-valve V8 engine’s 510 horsepower and 461 pound-feet of torque.
The power from the supercharged 5.0L V8 is addicting, as seen by the acceleration time of 0-100 km/h being only 5.3 seconds. Both powertrains are paired with an outstanding ZF 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it should go without saying that all three models include the very latest and greatest advancements in off-road technology. After all, it is a product that Land Rover manufactures.
Design
The dynamic new Range Rover Sport boasts an external design that is both daring and forward-thinking, which boldly establishes the car among the most recent line-up of Range Rover vehicles. The design DNA of the existing model has been interpreted in a new way to give the new car a sleek and modern look; also, the vehicle’s roofline has been redesigned to slope downward, giving it a distinctively athletic image. The new Sport is just 62 millimeters longer than its predecessor, but at 4850 millimeters in length, it is shorter than comparable 7-seater SUVs and most sedans in the E sector. This allows for improved maneuverability and makes it simpler to park.
Looks like family
On the other hand, the back passengers have more space to move about and easier access thanks to the much longer wheelbase (an increase of 178 mm). The new Range Rover Sport, on which the new Sport is based, is 149 millimeters shorter and 55 millimeters lower than the new Range Rover, and model-for-model, the new Sport weighs 45 kilograms less. The likeness to other members of the family is striking. The transparent greenhouse of the Sport floats in the air, precisely like that of its relatives, and very few features have been included. Even when covered in a more subdued “Dynamic” metallic paint, the fender and hood vents are still the most noticeable features of the vehicle.
The nose of the Range Rover Sport is more streamlined than the nose of the Range Rover, and its headlights are integrated into the fenders with the help of a long wing that wraps around the corners. As one approaches the shorter rear end, the wheel arches expand slightly more, and the roofline drops down more quickly than it does on the smaller Evoque. It is intricately detailed, and the proportions have a somewhat more traditional Range Rover feel to them than either its larger, up-kicked buddy or its stiletto-styled brother.
