2024 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
Starting at $85.075
Highs: Attractive styling, plush cabin, comfortable ride with a sporting edge.
Lows: Quirky infotainment interface requires some training, costs more than rivals, plug-in hybrid only offered on most expensive trim.
Verdict: All the prestige and off-road capability of the top-shelf Range Rover, but in a smaller and sportier package.
Overview
The Sport in the 2024 Range Rover Sport's name is not only a reference to its position just beneath the grander Range Rover, but it also stands for the shot of adrenaline it injects into the brand's lineup. While other Range Rover models aim to deliver comfort and luxury, the Range Rover Sport offers those traits alongside athleticism on par with rivals such as the BMW X5, the Porsche Cayenne, and the Mercedes-AMG GLE53. All its available powertrains pack a reasonable punch, from the 355-hp inline-six to the 542-hp plug-in hybrid. The Range Rover Sport's cabin is also impressive, with fine materials draped over two comfortable rows of seats. But this mix of prestige and refinement means its starting price is higher than that of other SUVs, so prepare to pay a premium to park the Range Rover Sport in your driveway.
What's New for 2024?
The big news for 2024 is the addition of the 626-hp Range Rover Sport SV, but we review that model separately. The regular Range Rover Sport gains a new 542-hp plug-in-hybrid powertrain called P550e. This replaces last year's P440e model and offers both more power and more electric driving range. Elsewhere, the Range Rover Sport's infotainment system has been upgraded to the latest Pivi Pro 4 software interface. The update includes sliders for volume and climate controls that Land Rover says are easier to use; the system menus have been simplified as well to make it easier to navigate. The V-8-powered P530 powertrain has been discontinued for 2024 to make room in the lineup for the performance-oriented SV model.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The interior design of the Range Rover Sport is an exercise in minimalism, with few physical buttons and switches and a streamlined appearance throughout the cabin. Buyers can choose from either textile or genuine leather upholstery in attractive two-tone designs. The dark-tinted chrome accents look particularly premium. Power-adjustable front seats are standard, but a set of chairs with up to 22 ways of adjustability as well as massage, ventilation, and winged headrests is optional. An integrated air purification system is available and is said to reduce odors, bacteria, viruses, and allergens from the cabin.
