I have gone from a 2018 Audi Q7 to a 2019 RR Sport DV6 , and am more than happy with RR , yes the RR leans slightly more mid corner above 65mph, I have 21” Wheels and can’t notice any difference in ride quality..the Audi has even less physical buttons but I agree faster touch screen, build quality is on a par...one clinical and Germanic with hard seats Audi and One coasting with a much better leather smell and soft feel..I appreciate Audi is newer design but in 15000 miles I never actually warmed to, or liked the car...I am not sure if this chap is being sponsored for every time he says Audi Q7

[@Horizon301.]

The quality on the Q7 is far better than the JLR vehicles. Even the XJ quality leaves a lot to be desired when compared to the 7 series or A8. The Q7 is a great SUB, up until the new X5 then I would say it was the best of the best. RR’s are kind of a niche, it’s the driving position and the overall appeal that makes them desirable, can’t blame anyone for getting one for that but overall I would still say the Q7 is better or the X5. That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t ever get a Vogue or Sport but it will mean compromising on quality and technology.

Hilarious. We literally just did the same thing last week. Had a 17 Q7 Prestige and moved to the RR Sport HST and am soooo happy we did. People can say all they want about reliability, that’s what warranties are for. Totally agree with you on the harsh Audi seats. The RRS is like luxurious couch.

[@RatnimV]

jrekasie Wow, how do you guys find Audi's seats harder than the RRSport's one. I' ve been in both cars and soooo excited for Range, but i was ( without being overdramatic) shocked how hard the seats were. Beacuse i expected them to be spft as cloud( being a range rover). Then i tried the Velar, Vogue and Evoque and all these were comfy, bit somehow the softest were in the Evoque. And i would still get Sport rather then q7 because it's my fave car. But really, i was a really disapointed with the hard seats.

[@autocubedotcom6617]

I cant disagree more with your comment on fit on the inside saying it's not up to say a Audi Q7 quality" . Having both 2019's there is no comparison to the RRS over the Q7. The RRS feel put together and now with 20k miles on both, the Audi feels a little looser and the RRS feels like day one. Granted they drive totally different. RRS feel heavy but solid and the Audi Q7 feels lighter but not as luxurious. Both great SUV but sooo different in there execution.

I hear about the RR unreliability issue all the time and can't quite understand it. A car costing this much from a famous brand such as LR should be bullet proof. I have a Skoda Yeti. Yes you may laugh but in reality it's a VW Tiguan. I have had it for some years is the 4x4 auto dsg box version and £30k new. It is amazing and has never let me down or even had one minor issue save for general wear and tear. Why can VW do it at that price point and RR can't?

Great Video Review. I have seen many Range Rover Sport Models where I live

[@MrPeterthepilot]

Proof, if proof were needed, that driving a car for a day or two and then reviewing it, isn’t the same as owning it. For example, why ever would you try manually to change the radio station when driving? Just use the voice system. Also, having owned an Audi Q8 and gotten rid of it because of all the squeaks and rattles, praising Audi for build quality is, for me at any rate, a bit far fetched. What worries me about these reviews is that sure, the X5 is a better road car, the Audi has better tech, the Discovery is better off road and the Land Cruiser better at towing. The Sport might not be the best at these but none of the others do all of them so well, something you only really discover by owning one.

I said ok the car is under warranty but guess wot they said that part isn’t covered !
