Motor of the Month – The New Range Rover Sport


The new Range Rover Sport is a supreme SUV that has continued to make a real splash amongst car buyers since its spectacular unveiling.

To demonstrate the vehicle’s incredible capability and formidable traction, the manufacturer staged a dramatic world-first climb up a 193-metre flooded dam spillway in Iceland with a James Bond stunt driver at the wheel. The epic ascent saw the Range Rover Sport resist a perilous drop and the surging torrent of water flowing down the ramp of the Karahnjukar Dam – the biggest of its kind in the world – at a rate of 750 tonnes per minute.

Of course, it’s not a challenge that motorists will likely ever need to take on, when enquiring about the latest addition to the Range Rover collection at Sinclair Land Rover showrooms in Aberystwyth, Brecon, Ludlow and the Group’s brand-new Swansea retailer on Riverside Business Park.

However, they can be assured that it is more than a match to rise effortlessly to any driving situation that they might face and that includes away from paved roads. Features such as the latest Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (iAWD) and Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control making its debut on the Range Rover Sport will ensure owners can navigate the trickiest terrain. Dynamic Air Suspension with switchable volume air springs – another Range Rover first – and twin-valve active dampers provide new levels of agility, control and composure too.

The third generation of Land Rover’s luxury performance SUV is indeed the most desirable, technologically-advanced and capable yet, mixing an imposing road presence with instinctive driving responses using the most sophisticated combination of chassis technologies ever fitted to a Land Rover.

Powering the Range Rover Sport range is a line-up of powerful and efficient powertrains that include the popular six-cylinder 48V mild-hybrid Ingenium diesel option.

Smooth and quiet when slowing down and strong and responsive when pulling away (0 to 60mph in just 6.3 seconds), the Range Rover Sport mild hybrid diesel delivers improved fuel economy of 37.7mpg (WLTP), reduced emissions and a refined driving experience and without the need for charging.

Of course, occupant comfort and connected convenience are the hallmarks of this superior SUV that boasts a sumptuous and sophisticated interior featuring a 13.1-inch curved touchscreen for award-winning Pivi Pro infotainment complemented by intuitive 13.7-inch Interactive Driver Display. Sculpted seating, Cabin Air Purification Pro and Meridian Signature Sound with the latest Active Noise Cancellation as standard in addition to Wireless Apple CarPlay®, Wireless Android Auto™ and 15W Wireless Device Charger guarantee every journey is one to be savoured.

And if you thought good things only come to those who wait then think again. Range Rover Sport diesel models are available to order now from Sinclair Land Rover retailers with delivery times of three to six months.
