New Range Rover Sport in Ludlow & Aberystwyth

With added poise and agility, the Range Rover Sport is one of the more athletic models in the manufacturer's selection. It claims a deceptively tight turning circle, a braked towing capacity of 3.5 tonnes and an HDD premium navigation system.

Design

In designing the model, Land Rover has been sure to add fresh, sportier features that help it live up to its name. The rear roof-mounted spoiler adds both dynamism and downforce, and the powered tailgate gives quick access to the 958-litre boot. Vibrant new 20" alloys complete the vehicle's exterior style. Within the cabin, eight-way adjustable front seats and full leather upholstery provide plenty of comfort. The leather-trimmed steering wheel is the central focus of the driving position, which has been specifically raised for an enhanced view of the road ahead. As for the built-in technology, the model boasts an exclusive Harman Kardon audio system with 11 speakers and climatic control air conditioning.

Performance

There's a straight choice of two engines for the Sport: a 3.0-litre V6 diesel and a supercharged 5.0-litre petrol with 510bhp (available at higher trim levels). Both engines work with a six-speed automatic gearbox, and the V6 engine's fuel system uses a Diesel Particulate Filter to slash the model's CO2 emissions. The foundation of the vehicle's incredible performance is a new four-corner suspension system, which uses Land Rover's unique Terrain Response technology to make off-road and uneven surfaces feel much smoother.

Safety

As you might expect from a Land Rover model, the Range Rover Sport works just as hard to keep everyone safe. The vehicle’s rigid body is built with energy-absorbing crumple zones, and a full set of surrounding airbags is placed around the cabin as standard. When it’s not on the road, the Sport’s comprehensive alarm system uses tilt and motion sensors to stay secure.
