2023 Range Rover Sport Review | Third-gen luxury SUV takes ride, handling and design to a new level

Third-generation British luxury SUV backs smooth design with class-leading ride and handling 👉 Full Review: www.carsales.com.au/editorial...
The original Range Rover may have invented the luxury SUV market segment in 1970, but its more attainable sibling made the genre far more popular when the first Range Rover Sport was launched in 2005.
Now, there’s an all-new model for the first time in a decade, and the third-generation 2023 Range Rover Sport makes quite a statement in design, technology and dynamics - especially in D350 First Edition guise as tested here by Sam Charlwood.

Brilliant review I bought the p400 autobiography and love ❤️ it!

Sales 12 months to 2023 + 25% across the JLR range. Backlog of 215,000 units on the order books. Apparently not dead yet.

My 2017 engine went in my Range Rover Diesel just before warranty was up. Luckily for me I was covered. However while it was known potential problem it doesn’t happen to all of them and Range Rover have a Goodwill policy (so they should) and appointed a personal customer rep that took care of everything for us while the new engine was being put in. I got complimentary Range Rover hire car, they organised delivery of the loan car to my work, they coordinated the repairs, warranty claim, and called me weekly with an update. Yes it was disappointing, yes it was inconvenient, no it really shouldn’t be happening on an expensive car only 5yrs old, however, it did! Land Rover took care of the problem and I only skipped a beat for two days of real inconvenience. Of course like anything most people look to improve on the bad and fingers crossed they have because I have just traded my car for the new D350 Sport. I’m happy with everything else that Range Rover offers and the new car warranty has my back for a while. This review on the sport is accurate based on my test drive experience.

[@stephantranquille6681]

Have to admit the Range looks fantastic in and out. Great review, thank you.

[@NetMillionaire]

Brilliant review ❤ i part exchanged my SVR FOR the new RRS, P400 it’s amazing and I love it.

[@williegitau6680]

Love your reviews🎉

[@btpp12]

Nice review . Would love to see a comparison test with new cayene and sport

[@geokon7192]

Isn’t air suspension standard on every sport now without the 4cly base model? Why you saying “when optioned”? That would redicilous if it’s not.

[@donatas8787]

Thank you

Does "nuances" in the final summary mean the door handles fell off ?

[@vindowmaker5819]

@4:30 lol Just you wait 😅😂😂

[@questionyourself718]

Just fyi: the sport mode pumps a fake v8 sound, mixed with a "filtered" sound from the actual exhaust, into the cabin. However that works.. but in the end i think tgat the majority of sound you hear is artificial.

[@cjdines7738]

I got my self one too . For the spear wheel u have to pay $500 . When you buy the car .

[@titusambau548]

Can I get one🤔

[@Macedonia270]

If I really could not make the budget stretch to buy a real Range Rover, I would rather opt for the new Defender...

What Is cool aid

[@someopinionateddirt6561]

Its an american powdered or cordial drink. They spell it as kool aid. It's also used as an idiom for indoctrination in reference to the jonestown cult mass suicide. The cultists mixed it with poison.

[@malsmith2012]

From the horror stories I've seen and read about over the years and the absolute contempt in which the way the dealers treat you for the privilege of them letting you buy one even if I was a multi millionaire many times over I still wouldn't buy one. John Cadogan's videos on JLR are enlightening..

[@malsmith2012]

@@electrikoptik You'd hope they wouldn't sell themselves like that but you could certainly be right.. . I know they gloss over the horror stories as these motoring journalists won't want to risk the junkets overseas and invites to launches etc. It's a big issue for sure..

[@Mk1Male]

@@malsmith2012 Yet you've never owned one or had to interact with the dealers. Keep looking at the internet.

[@duk4you]

You will sell it before the warranty expires

[@candisenewton9490]

I went to a Land Rover store today and not one person came up to us to greet us and check if we were ok, went to Audi and within 5 minutes of looking around outside someone came to us and asked if we wanted to sit inside a car etc so that’s helped me pick what car I wanna be buying

[@LolLelLuL]

Oh i see

[@victordasilva3630]

Disappointed with Land Rover put a deposit on a new range rover sport first edition p530 went to the dealer yesterday to check out one that they had on display to my amazement when the sales person locked the vehicle I happened to press the fuel Lid flap it opened when I mentioned that to him he said that’s how it is I find that very disappointing in a vehicle of such a price it’s an invitation to vandals to introduce foreign materials to the fuel tank to me it’s a deal breaker as I have cancelled my order get it right Land Rover no short cuts please

[@iancowen171]

Lemon on wheels

[@Pedroaghyu]

I love range rovers and always will but will never buy another one due to there reliability. I wish the Japanese made them

[@GBLyrics]

They also use a lot of denso electrics now (Japanese) instead of Bosch, so reliability should be improved

[@craigelliott5028]

The engine light company….even if you can afford one… don’t JLR wont help you and sales are down a massive 30% year on year (that’s what happens when you treat customers like shit) RIP JLR

[@GBLyrics]

The 9000 cars built a week and 220,000 cars on back order says otherwise

[@Alby911]

If you really wanted a car for attention to take your kids to soccer practice, get an Audi RS4/RS6 or any wagon in the upper bracket. But if being unoriginal and devoid of knowledge just how deep and wide the car market is, by all means go Range Rover.

[@Equity_Group]

Lmao rs4/rs6 are ugly and doesn't make you look "original"

[@Alby911]

@@Equity_Group In terms of driving that particular body style, it may as well be. But another ugly boxy SUV on the road won't hurt, right, turbo?

[@jensmith1990]

New design is ugly. The design from a few years ago is much nicer.
