According to Land Rover, the 2018 and 2019 versions are regarded as the most dynamic Range Rover ever. Although they are not designed to be the road-focused SUV like some other Range Rover brands, they still boast sport-like features. Smaller than the usual Range Rover, it boasts the option of seven seats, just like the discovery, although it is slightly handier while maintaining much of the stately on and off-road prowess of the typical Range Rover.
The handling is not excessively quick, and Land Rover does not make it as weighty as some popular SUVs in its category, which suits the car’s luxury sporty feel, and makes this road magic more relaxing at the wheel as a driver or passenger than it might else have been if Land Rover had overdone the sportiness. The eight-speed gearbox, as usual for Land Rover, is not the speediest witted, but again, it’s smoother when being plied gently, cruising with ease, and going about its business smoothly.
The Range Rover Sport has one of the widest ranges of any large SUV. It is just about handy and smooth enough to be pleasurable, convincingly luxurious, comfortable, stylish and its tech updates for the latest models add a welcome dose of modernity to a car that has been behind its German rivals in terms of tech and gadgets.

Range Rover Velar cuts a more distinct shape compared to the rest of the Range Rover series, with a brand new design concept and a stylish roofline. It does not quite occupy a new SUV position, but it is by far the closest Land Rover has come to filling that small SUV niche. The Velar’s position in the series and its general shape and design means that it occupies plenty of bases, and as such, it enters the market with a whole lot of rivals to compete with.
Like most other vehicles in the series, Land Rover offers a wide range of engines, features and specs. Basic Velar models notch that attractive entry-level price tag, seven more versions slot in above – S, SE, HSE cars plus sporty-looking R-Dynamic S, SE and HSE models. There is also a wide range of diesel and petrol options when it comes to engine capacities, although the most basic, cheapest and simplest Velar model only comes with a 178bhp 2.0-litre turbodiesel. Powertrain choices also open up extra up the range with a 237bhp 2.0-litre diesel and a 3.0-litre V6 diesel, generating either 271bhp or 296bhp, badged D275 and D300 respectively.
