2022 Range Rover Review - Fantastic, but worth R3,5 million?

[@F1_degenerate]

Damn, that's my dad's dream car. I would love to buy him one oneday.

[@matomemalatsi3559]

You will 🙏

[@matthew6190]

Looks fabulous but the R3.5 mil price tag only makes ‘sense’ if you perceive this car’s closest rivals as being a Bentayga or Cullinan, otherwise is it really worth R1 mil more than a GLS? I’m not sure

[@anthonytromp6265]

Yes it is my friend.That car has no rival.You can't speak of that Merc in the same breath .

[@neophasha9785]

Cullinan is close to R10 mil bro

[@matthew6190]

@@neophasha9785 Well yes, I was just illustrating that the Range is placed in a weird market position with its pricing. Comparatively a ‘bargain’ to but not quite as special as a Bentley or Rolls but a lot more expensive that its ‘true’ competitors. A new Lexus LX or Mercedes GLS both come in at around the R2.3 mil mark each…is it really worth all that extra money over an LX or GLS? Unless you’re looking at a Maybach-GLS, the pricing doesn’t really make sense

[@hopewellnzuza]

Rather opt for a Land Cruiser 300, LC 300 you got that confident it will last and things won't break as easily especially if you go off road. Doubt anyone with this new Range Rover would want to bash through the bush in it.

[@kylekyle8131]

Very true!

[@morpheus6394]

[@namibgtv6]

honestly, thats like recommending a Polo Vivo to someone looking into buying a C class Benz just because they have a gravel driveway. The Land Cruiser is not in the same class as the Range Rover.

[@hopewellnzuza]

@@namibgtv6 A bit unfair comparison of the Vivo to a Mercedes but fair enough not the same class but the Land Cruiser 300 is by far a better ownership overall, less things to go wrong with fewer headaches over the R2M mark. The Range Rover is superb luxury, perhaps too much luxury you can't take it off road anymore. It has become fragile for it supposed purpose built of going anywhere in my opinion though.

[@takundamapako7856]

@@hopewellnzuza I hear what you are saying, I get you. But you need to note that even the LC300 isnt taken off-road that often, thats what LC 70's are for. The truth is the Range Rover is not in the same class as the LC. and also, the RR is not bought by people who intend to take it off-road - just as the LC300 isnt also bought primarily to go off-road.

Bro....laughed so hard,you in that backseat.🤣🤣🤣

[@craigjenkins3854]

The New Range Rover looks absolutely stunning. For R3,5 M I would hope that it's worth the asking price. Hopefully Land Rover have ironed out there quality issues of the previous generation. It's still the king of the luxury SUVs . The latest generation may be pricey but then you're getting a luxury SUV that you can take off road.

[@BubblesTheCat1]

Ironed out their quality issues. What planet are you from?

[@njongomthethwa3173]

Great video, but when are we getting a new Range Rover Velar SV Autobiography?

[@tadssicholo8670]

No way am I paying 3.5mill for that, I used to be a fan of range rover but now the prices of their cars and how much they depreciate is nuts

[@gertbotha9980]

RR is like an electric gate motor, a box full of problems.

[@yissibiiyte]

Ignoring the price, it's a great car. Looking at the price, it's ridiculous. Especially considering that for all that money you're getting the single least reliable car in the world

[@phenotypeb6843]

Above a certain price point it isn't really about "value for money".

[@katisop5991]

Their service when you do break down is to die for... used to be at least, before they introduced plenty customers with Evoques, XE's, and "beautiful" designs.

[@ricardomakhura]

My thoughts exactly...

[@hopewellnzuza]

Totally agree with the reliability issues there. First to go among many other issues would be that air suspension, classic Range Rover pit. For R3.6M though it's probably easier to just put wheels on a very nice house and drive that on the road.

[@gamersquadlifestyle]

You guys are over exaggerating, reliability it is not as bad as most of you guy's here think it is, because most of the people who complain about these car are people who don't even know how to take care of them but compared to the Germans there's nothing different realiabity wise although I will tell that😂the guy in a BMW X5, his car will definitely disappear faster in 10 years than this Range Rover

[@sivuyiledumalisile6308]

[@War_R3gul8r]

Ash really said ‘Contraband’ 😅 We see you Ash 👀🤣

[@hedydd2]

Depends on your disposable income and what you compare it with whether it seems worth the money to you. The R3.6million must be the very top of the range [rover]. It’s about £165,000 which will get you an entry level Bentley Bentayga or a tiny two seater McLaren. Or two well specified Ineos Grenadiers with change to also buy a Kia Sorento 4wd seven seater.

This is a R2.5M car unfortunately at that bracket, more potent cars with low mileage like the X5M, M8 GLS63 PORSCHE are within range, I would get myself one of these and channel the difference split to getting a Rolex and or Peatek Phillipe or Audemars Piguet.
