»
The all-new 2023 Range Rover Sport gets a sizable update to replace its aging predecessor . Now entering its third generation since the model ’ s debut in 2005 , the posh luxury cruiser continues to deliver quintessential British styling with renowned off-road ability in a family-friendly package .
The new Sport ’ s exterior styling is an evolution over its predecessor that emphasizes refinement through simplicity . Maintaining its iconic silhouette using svelte character lines and proportional sizes for its headlights and front grille , the new Sport stays refreshingly mature unlike many of its rivals that rely on ostentatious design cues and exaggerated shapes to draw attention to itself .
This smart styling continues to the interior which blends traditional material comforts with the latest connected technologies for a modern in-cabin experience . Rear passengers can find more legroom than before , while front passengers can engage with a new 13.1-inch curved infotainment touchscreen featuring the brand ’ s latest Pivi Pro user interface . Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard as well .
A diverse range of engine options can be selected for the new Range Rover Sport - this includes two conventional hybrids , one plug-in hybrid , and an all-new turbo V8 engine option with 523 horsepower . In addition , a fully electric vehicle will be added to the lineup in 2024 .
Underneath the sheet metal , the new Range Rover Sport rides on a new MLA-Flex Architecture which provides 35 % higher torsional stiffness and a new dynamic air suspension system . This suspension system features switchable volume air springs for better agility , control , and composure on all terrains .
Built in the Solihull manufacturing facility alongside the full-sized Range Rover in the United Kingdom , the 2023 Range Rover Sport stays true to its roots as a capable off-road luxury cruiser with the modernity , luxury , and tech features that hallmark each Range Rover vehicle . Backed by heritage with a reputation earned through meritocracy , this new Range Rover is destined to be another customer favourite .
