Range Rover Sport Review 2024, Price & Specs (2024)

Suspension and ride comfort

No matter which version you go for, the Sport impresses on the road. The air suspension is a little firmer than on the Range Rover, and you’re a bit more aware of bumps in the road as they pass beneath you, but thanks to tighter control, those obstacles are dealt with quickly, with very little aftershock. There’s less vertical body movement over undulating roads, too.

We’ve sampled the Sport on 22in and 23in alloy wheels, but the ride is likely to be even more supple on the free-to-option 20in ones. All of the Sport’s rivals are less comfortable on big alloys, including the generally smooth X5.

Handling

Every Range Rover Sport feels stable and relatively agile, but despite its name, we’d stop short of calling most of them athletic. The X5 and the Porsche Cayenne offer more grip and tighter body control, helping them to shrink around you when you start to pick up the pace, while the Sport always feels a little top-heavy.

The exception is the Range Rover Sport SV, which is lighter, gets bespoke suspension and has a lower ride height (you can also add carbon-ceramic brakes for great stopping power). As a result, the SV exhibits less body lean through corners than other versions. Note, though, that the similarly priced Aston Martin DBX707 and Lamborghini Urus handle just as well, if not better.

No matter which version you go for, the Sport is an easy car to drive along a twisty road. Rear-wheel steering, which is fitted as standard on the P635 and P550e, helps make the car remarkably agile at low speeds by greatly reducing the turning circle. That also helps off road, where every version of the Range Rover Sport is leagues ahead of its rivals.
