Our first taste of the new 2023 Range Rover Sport: 'With the full-sized Range Rover absolutely knocking our socks off when we drove it earlier this year, we had high hopes for the Sport. It’s delivered,' says our road tester mctreckmeister 👀
. Finally, here was a Range Rover that retained the extreme off-road ability of its larger sibling but with a hefty dose of additional daily usability and a slightly less old-money image.
They’re paired up to an inline-six rather than the rather anaemic four-pot of the previous-gen PHEVs. Both flavours – badged P440e or the more powerful halo P510e – are seriously smooth operators when it comes to switching between their power sources, and the new six-pot is so quiet at idle or around town you probably won’t notice whether you’re running on petrol or plug unless you take a look at the rev counter.The thing is, with a 38.
For those with simpler tastes come our pick of the range – inline-six petrol and diesel options with only the mildest of hybrid frippery. The diesel in particular suits the Sport very well indeed, with plenty of shove at the low end making it superb around town and with more than enough power to keep you happy on the open road. The false engine note is a bit chintzy, but it’s not unappealing – and it highlights that you can’t actually hear any of the diesel’s natural rumble from the cabin.
Head onto the motorway and regardless of which engine you have its noise fades away into nothingness. Tyre noise, too, is incredibly well-suppressed, leaving just a hint of wind noise – to be expected with a car this massive and bluff – to interrupt the silence. Which you can easily drown out with the Meridian stereo anyway.
