Land Rover Range Rover Sport Overview

The five-passenger Range Rover Sport is available in two trim levels: HSE and Supercharged. The HSE is powered by a new 375-hp 5.0-liter naturally-aspirated V8 engine, while the Supercharged trim boasts a new 510-hp 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Both powerplants feature direct fuel injection and are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with CommandShift manual shift mode; new for 2010, Supercharged trims get steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. Full-time four-wheel drive with Land Rover's acclaimed "Terrain Response" system helps tackle a wide range of off-road conditions, while Supercharged trims add Adaptive Dynamics with variable suspension dampening for sportier handling. Standard equipment on the HSE includes a power sunroof, 19-inch alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, leather upholstery and genuine wood trim details. Supercharged trims are further outfitted with 20-inch wheels, an adaptive front lighting system with automatic high beam assistant, heated front and rear seats and satellite radio (all optional on the HSE). Standard safety features include six airbags, four-wheel anti-lock brakes with brake assist, electronic stability control with traction control and roll mitigation, front and rear park assist and tire pressure monitoring.

For 2010, the Land Rover Range Rover Sport gets more powerful engines, as well as a revised exterior with LED tail lamps and interior enhancements. A new hard-drive-based navigation system debuts on both trim levels, along with a passive entry/start system and a portable audio interface that supports USB and iPod connectivity. Additionally, a surround camera system and HD digital radio are now available.
