Range Rover VS Range Rover Sport: The Ultimate Comparison Guide

Are you in the market for a new SUV and can't decide between the Range Rover or Range Rover Sport? Both vehicles embody the iconic Land Rover brand and offer impressive luxury, power, and versatility, but they differ in many ways. To help you make an informed decision, we've compiled a list of the main differences between these two popular vehicles. Let's take a closer look!


Design: While both vehicles share similar design features, the Range Rover Sport is slightly smaller, with a lower roofline and more aerodynamic shape. The standard Range Rover has a more traditional boxy shape, providing more headroom and cargo space. The exterior of the Range Rover Sport, on the other hand, has more sporty features, such as its more sculpted bodywork, stylish bumper and grille designs and a sportier exhaust note than the regular Range Rover.


Performance: This is where the differences between these two SUVs stand out. The Range Rover is available with a wider range of engine options, including a PHEV variant and a V8 engine. The 4.4L V8 engine in the Range Rover produces a massive 523 horsepower, while the PHEV comes closer to the environment with fewer CO2 emissions. The Range Rover Sport, on the other hand, emphasizes more on power and speed, with engines ranging from 395 horsepower to a fuel-efficient 434 horsepower PHEV variant.


Interior: Both vehicles offer luxurious interiors with high-quality materials, but the Range Rover has a more luxurious feel. The Range Rover features more comfortable and softer seats, more craftsmanship, advanced technology, and more amenities compared to the Range Rover Sport. Additionally, the Range Rover is also available in long-wheelbase versions that offer more legroom and wider space, which is ideal for those who prefer luxury SUVs with more abundant space.


Off-Road Capability: Both vehicles are excellent in terms of off-roading ability. They come equipped with Land Rover's excellent all-wheel-drive system and Terrain Response technology, which enables drivers to adjust the vehicle's driving characteristics according to different terrain types. However, the Range Rover has a slightly better off-road capability with features like improving its ground clearance, greater wading depth, and a clever automatic access height that lowers the car for easy entry and exit.


Price Range: Range Rover is considered the more luxurious of the two, and it is also more expensive. The base price for the Range Rover is around $128,000, while the Range Rover Sport is priced at around $101,000. However, the more expensive Range Rover comes with more features and a more luxurious feel, while the Range Rover Sport offers more power and a sports car-like driving experience.


Choosing between the Range Rover and the Range Rover Sport can be overwhelming, given the differences between them. It ultimately comes down to your personal preferences and priorities, but with this guide, we hope to have provided enough information to help you make an informed decision. Whether you go for the more luxurious Range Rover or the more agile and performance-oriented Range Rover Sport they both offer top-class versatility, luxury and off-road driving capability suitable for any challenging terrain. Hence, we strongly recommend a test drive to help you pick the perfect SUV you've been waiting for.
