All-New 2023 Range Rover review // What a machine!

#CoupleCarReview
This is a Motormouth couple c ar review of the all-new 2023 Range Rover First Edition, luxury SUV. We are driving the Range Rover First Edition model, made in limited numbers in the first year of production. It starts at 188,450 CAD/$164,000 USD. The Range Rover’s ride is plush, smooth and so comfortable. When you put it in dynamic mode, everything firms up but with the electronic air suspension it’s really, still set up for comfort, you feel like you are gliding down the road. The air suspension also lowers the vehicle for easy access to the cargo area. This new Range Rover has a twin-turbo 4.4 litre V8 with an 8-speed automatic transmission, 523 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. This new V8 produces 37 lb-ft more torque than the previous 5L Supercharged V8. There are eight terrain drive modes to choose from and new to Land Rover is all wheel steering which is standard on the Range Rover improving manoeuvrability. This SUV can wade in depths of 35.4” and the 3D surround camera features wade sensing, it uses sensors in the door mirrors to let you know when water levels are approaching maximum depth. The exterior of the Range Rover is clean and modern with a simple elegance including flushed door handles, a unique front bumper and five bar grille design, we are riding on 23” wheels. The interior design is elegant with an integrated 13.1” touchscreen with Amazon Alexa, 13.7” digital driver display, wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto, 11.4” rear seat entertainment, a Meridian signature sound system, wireless charger, 24-way heated and cooled hot stone massage electric front seats, a centre console refrigerator compartment, panoramic sunroof and a powered gesture tailgate. Fuel economy, the Range Rover V8 gets 15.1L/100 km, 16 MPG city and 11.1L/100 km, 21 MPG highway. Wondering about electrification? The Range Rover will become the first in a series of all electric Land Rover vehicles when the full electric model debuts in 2024. The Ranger Rover plug-in hybrid is available now with 434 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. It has an estimated 77 km/48 miles of EV range with a starting price of $135,450 CAD/$108,400 USD.

You two really are the pinnacle of "go to" car reviews. For 40 years I have read about, purchased, sold, driven, reviewed, researched and talked about vehicles and you two just give the honest and straightforward approach any potential buyer would be needing to make an informed decision. It really takes away a lot of preliminary legwork and "weeding through" of the volume of choices one has in making a somewhat expensive and important purchase. Well done you two. Really great as per usual! Love to work with you guys sometime!

[@randyprice1831]

Let them eat cake!😆 I loved when Zack said "When they're working they're spectacular"

This car drive review is absolutely the best.

[@billr8564]

Another excellent, informative and enjoyable review, as usual! And, as always, I appreciate the lightning round and - even though you really like the vehicle - you are still up front about the questionable reliability. Thank you for all of that. It keeps me subscribed and watching!

[@andreaspencer9813]

Awesome, thank you for the kind words!

[@zoner__]

Beautiful interiors. Owning one terrifies me. Carries on the Lucas tradition from the 70's. Wafting ride from air ride suspension that will probably cost you $15K when it breaks. If it came with a Hyundai length warranty maybe...

[@abhardwaj02]

Thanks for considering the feedback! You guys look amazing in this car. The 70kms EV range is a big deal! Love how Andrea’s outfit matches with the color tones of the SUV

[@alin4507]

Just get more money maybe and then look at these cars 🫨

[@gregp.7148]

Every surface of the Volvo S90 T6 AWD Inscription's interior is also wrapped in Napa leather. Even the two front seats' overhead grab handles and visors. This S90 is exactly the same size as a 7-series BMW. The sleeper luxury car in its segment.

[@bighands69]

A Volvo will never be able to compete off road with a Range Rover. They are to different types of product aimed at different types of buyer. A RR buyer may live in the countryside, drive through fields, have dogs in the back, carry animal feed, tow the boat around and be driving up in the mountains and at the same time driving it to a restaurant. The Volvo SUV range are really nice but you have to take into account the moral aspect of owning one.

[@mikeolson7557]

Great review! They really nailed it on the redesigns with this and the Sport.

[@JaBlanche]

I win the lottery, I'm buying black on black. LFG!

[@randahlbeach]

Hey Andrea & Zack - Luv your reviews!!! For those that haven't had the pleasure of viewing one up close they truly are GORGEOUS. Top premium materials and Fit & Finish 2nd to none. I don't like the double fin on top nor the large steering wheel but other than that what a sleek SUV that can really move- 0 to 60 in 4 seconds??? WOW!!!

[@TMS5100]

@2:51 I LOOK DOWN UPON ALL THE PEASANTS 😁😁😁

[@agustinliden6189]

The 2023 Range Rover is a very beautiful creation from Land Rover and my dream SUV.

[@benjamintucker1075]

Enjoyed your your video. When I purchased my range, with my criteria in mind, I believe there are only really two options. Lexus gx 470/lx models and the Mercedes G wagon. Although the ones presented are nice, they lack capability if one WANTED to do certain things. As I told my friend, who owns a BMW X5. My car can go everywhere yours does, but you can’t go everywhere I can go. Yes, there are Jeeps and Toyota out there that are highly capable 4x4, but I argue none will do it in the comfort of range. Once again, enjoyed the video.

[@DonFather]

This Rover really does look majestic, and that's what it's all about with RR. I agree with Zach about the rear end. And now I feel like such a peasant with my 22" wheels on the Defender. But those door handles would drive me UP THE WALL if I had to wait for them to come out like that every single time.

[@arikbolrli]

If you hit the "unlock" button on the key fob, the handle pop right out before you are even near the vehicle. It takes longer to take the keys out of your pocket. You invented an issue that does not exist. I have a 2023 Autobiography with these door handles. Never even occurred to me that it is a problem. With the handles retracted, it makes a lot less wind noise on highway. Really, a non-issue.

[@volvo_3877]

I believe it has an auto lock-unlock feature where they pop out when you're approaching the car

[@AeroDude73]

“..buying in this snack bracket.” 😅😂 🤣

[@silvergatesmedia]

Awesome review guys! Nice Rolex's by way, Zach it's a pleasure to know that you and I are wearing the same James Cameron's Deepsea...Lol. I've enjoyed watching you guys for a couple years now from Cincinnati, Ohio. I'm one of the very few African Americans in the country who's profession is being a commercial real estate broker. I'm thinking about using my next commission from a $11M deal to buy the 2023 Range Rover because I'm going to need the write off under my business. Keep up the great work!

[@michaelsylvester7272]

Beautiful machine. As you said, refined and clean but still has that classic box like RR shape Great review!

Good review, take care of my SUV, I will be picking it up in about 4 yrs after the first lease.

[@evans4you]

If the GLE and X5 are compatible to the full size Range Rover then where do you place the GLS and X7 which are priced more comparatively ?

[@BuRNingFLaN]

Hi Motormouth! Thanks for the Range rover review. Question: how good is this Range Rover's lane centering and adaptive cruise? Does it keep the car centered in its lane on freeways? Thanks!

[@martinbusler7416]

[@bighands69]

If you live in America there are plenty of great V8 options.

[@chegekinya2454]

Excellent luxurious machine Range Rover it is

[@alexsummaria371]

I feel a good competitor to this would be the G wagon

[@DonFather]

Speaking of reliability, I have had my 22 Defender for over a year now and it has had no problems. (I won't even knock on wood). I live in an area with lots of snowfall, and it just feels so composed. I hate the lack of thigh support on the seats, but that may just be on the Defender. So there, I'm no blind fanboy.

[@vibhav1319]

I love not being a fanboy But I don't under why people make fun of its reliability

How are they allowed to do the black taillights in Canada? I thought those are illegal.

Jay, Spot on! I just took deliver of my 6th Range Rover, a 2023 Autobiography. Have never had a problem with any of them unlike the Suburbans, Escalades and Yukon Denalis I have owned.

[@timphillips4147]

Are Range rovers over priced for what they are?, or is it truly the legacy premium make worth acquiring if you could finance it Andrea?

[@judekudera1141]

Nice review with the exception of your statement, “it defies the laws of physics.” It certainly does not defy the laws of physics, in fact it is the study and application of the laws of physics that enable such an amazing ride!

[@tvglasses]

When Zack said that 4s 0-100 times was 911 turbo power 20 years ago I thought what? they were that fast in the 80s after that I realized he was talking about the early 2000s and now I feel old🥲

[@PHOTOCONVENTION]

10:32 that brushed gold is so drop dead gorgeous.

[@dirkdesouza5975]

The 2021 Range Rover had the old "in control" system which was challenged. The New Rovers have the brand ne "Pivi Pro Infotainment" system that is light years ahead of the old system and works as fast as a smart phone.

[@GeoffClark-sm3ve]

I was driving behind one yesterday and it’s really nice. But I think they have missed the market. Pricing this at $200k at a time when finance rates in Canada are pushing 10% makes this tough to sell as widely as they have in the past. Hey RR - read the news.

[@billblonco]

Wouldn't the Range Rover be in close competition with the X7, GLS instead of the X5, GLE?

[@Motormouth...]

We chose 5-passenger models

[@afellowinnewengland6142]

You're exactly correct. No one shopping a Range Rover is looking at an X5. People shop price points, luxury and overall size not seating capacity.

[@Tahvyy]

😍😍When I saw you guys standing in front of this one, I did a little dance. 🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩

[@isimonsez]

The price of this vehicle is not because of the steering wheel 😒

[@afellowinnewengland6142]

Actually Range Rover won an ALG award for highest residual value. My family has them and they retain insane value. Mainly because they're hard to get and demand is high. Good luck finding one for 80% off in 5 years....Maybe 40% off.

[@philipguacci6452]

Yeah not cheap. Starting at over $226,000 aussie dollars to a very scary top of the range ( no pun intended.) $403,000 plus. Way too big and expensive. They mostly can be found in top areas where the house prices start with seven figures. Oh boy. I loved seeing you enjoy the cushy ride. Cheers from down under.

[@philipguacci6452]

I remember one K.Rudd and W Swan saying the LCT had to go up to 33% and that all who opposed it in parliament were Porsche drivers. Oh boy. It would also catch Golf 8 GTI and R buyers. Hardly luxury cars. What an easy income earner. Rolls Royce Phantom at over $1 million the taxes would buy a house in some areas of Melbourne. Cheers.

The unreliability is another way of showing off one’s wealth IMO

[@kellingtonlink956]

The very best 4x4xFar! Dream garage? Number one spot. Having acquired my apprentice mechanic papers while working/co-op for a Montréal dealership (Rolls/Jag/LR/Aston)… I’m biased. Problematic? Sure. High maintenance costs? Sit down. Depreciation? Like an anchor. But NOTHING shares the well deserved presence of Range Rover. Probably nothing (other than a Bentley or Rolls) provides a more regal experience. Probably though… the worst financial decision any normal couple/family could ever make… especially used. Man!… would I love one. Thanks for sharing your impressions.
