2014 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Review - Fast Lane Daily

[@danmuzicman01]

I like Tom doing the FLD tours. He's got a good personality, voice, and good flow. I personally could use some more tech info... but I understand thats not for everyone. Overall one of the better FLD tours.

[@jacattac7166]

I'm just sick of SUVs like Land Rover, Escalade, Tahoe, etc. being called "trucks", there's no point in calling them that. When I think of a truck, I think of pickups, semis, etc. Can anyone relate???

[@carycoller3140]

I have this same Rover. It's a truck when I need it to be, and it's a sedan when I need it to be that. It's both.

[@MJjosepho1]

I agree. I own an H2(not SUT) have had it for 11years. So many people call it a truck.. is not. Is an off-road capable SUV. Also have had two Range Rovers. Not trucks. Not saying one is better than the other. Different purpose. Unless... grab them by the *#%^^

[@awychoi]

If I am spending this much on a car? MPG is the last thing I am worrying about! I want my leather, tech, comfort, speed!

[@carltregoning5799]

I really like this guys review. Good filming aswell which often lets these down. Not to worried he called it a truck.

[@mustang9718]

I would argue that a Rubicon is actually better off road than is. Solid axles front and rear, mud terrains come on it standard, it has a front locker, and it's got much better approach and departure angles. Other than that, it was a great review.

[@Gaming4Ohio]

***** The Land Rover Discovery Will Destroy Any Jeep

[@mustang9718]

Gaming 4 Ohio you mean Defender, right? Discos are okay but definatley not as capable as a Rubi.

[@Gaming4Ohio]

Robbie Pulford Discos, Defenders and Range Rovers will destroy a wrangler without a doubt! 12 Inches of ground clearance in off road height wrangler 10 inches, Land Rovers can tow 8000 Pounds wrangler can tow 2500 pounds, can go through 900mm of water, Far better 4x4 system and is in 4x4 24/7, 550 HP 0-60 4.5 secs the 5.0 V8 would make a wrangler crawl in a hole.

[@mustang9718]

Gaming 4 Ohio Gameplay's & More yes, a range rover has a bigger, better engine with more horsepower and has a faster 0-60, but those don't really matter off road. A wrangler literally has nearly double the approach and departure angle of a range rover. It has a much better break over angle and it has solid axles and sway bar disconnects that provide much more flex in the suspension than the independent suspension in a range rover could ever dream of. It's short wheel base also provides a better turning circle and it's smaller size allows it to traverse over more trails. All of this and I haven't even brought up the fact that it can be modified very easily for not very much. You could buy a wrangler, lift it 6.5 inches, put it on 37's, add a snorkel, and it would drive circles around a range rover and still cost significantly less, you could probably even throw a hemi swap in there and still be less than a range rover.

[@falcon747100]

Nice review, what color is this?

[@falkin42]

For me here in Texas, a truck has a bed or otherwise open loading area (but not like a Ranchero or El Camino). This, along with almost everything else, is an SUV. Just my opinion.

[@falkin42]

I mean, how else 're you gonna throwsomehammersbackthere?

[@FastLaneDaily]

Tom Albrecht here - Thanks for all the comments! Let me address two items I've noticed that has caused some issue - I apologize for the overuse of the term "truck" it's a colloquial habit that 1.) is a local (for me) term used for anything that isn't a car 2.) a habit that I need to break - so there you have it. The second thing is this - the Wrangler comment is accurate to a point from first hand experience at a driving event where the Range Rover and Wrangler were present. The Wrangler will handle almost everything just as well as the range rover, HOWEVER, beyond some mechanical differences the clearance underneath the differentials is slightly lower and tend to rub more then the Range Rover which has a higher ride height at the maximum suspension setting. For reference: Jeep Wrangler Sahara has 10.6 inches and the Range Rover’s adjustable suspension increases clearance to 11.6 inches - which while rock crawling or off-roading makes a difference. Also - I'm not an off road expert nor will ever claim to be one so if there are some bits of information you want to school me on - please do, I am always interested in learning more because it's a fun driving experience!

[@bighands69]

***** People in America call them trucks so as to point out their size. If you were ever in a Ford Raptor you would understand this. The term SUV can also mean very small vehicles today and that is why people use truck. A lot of this also comes from the fact that picks years ago where like mini trucks.

[@demlac65]

Excellent video, Tom was very cool!

[@TheoldSouth]

No doubt, this is one of the most capable stock vehicles off road, but when you said that it can go places a Rubicon couldn't I puked a little. That is completely false and no where near the truth. Not only could the RR not compete with the Rubicon in extreme off road scenarios, but it couldn't hold a candle to my Grand Cherokee either. Solid axles make a huge difference off road.

[@Bull1shKill3r]

watch?v=V05uNdqXqqU Take a look at the 3 minute mark and onward, it is a Discovery tho (or LR3 for you in the US) it puts the Jeep to shame, and come on mate do NOT compare a Land Rover with a Cherokee please, cherokees are absolute city vehicles nowadays.

[@henrykincaid6821]

If you lose speed while going up a very steep hill in a wrangler, it will struggle but in Range Rover it isn't a problem as it has so much torque compared to power output.

[@TheoldSouth]

Jose Jaime the wrangler in that video wasn't a Rubicon and it had open diffs. The Discovery and Range Rover both have a very complicated limited slip four wheel drive system and some of them have lockers. You are comparing apples to oranges here. I agree with you when you say cherokees are city vehicles nowadays, but my Grand Cherokee is an 04 and that is the last year it had solid axles. It also has a v8, 3.73 gear ratio, and 272 ratio in the transfer case which puts down over 800ft/lbs of torque in low range. In addition to that, my jeep is equipped with limited slip varilok axles which behave very similarly to traditional lockers.

[@ThomasHarrisonLord]

How do you know this? Have you taken a RRS off-road?

[@TheoldSouth]

***** I am comparing the off road capability of my grand cherokee to the Range Rover. Even though my Jeep is luxurious inside and has lots of nice features it is still not going to compete with a Range in that category because it costs a lot less.

[@masonbonds1433]

air bag suspension? hell decent?

[@cash540i]

awesome vids from you guys. You really do make my day

[@omarrana102]

We are glad we can make your day! Thanks!

[@JamaicanMeCrazy]

so here's what they didn't tell you. I really really love range rovers. My friend has a discovery and the maintenance is out of this world. alot of the stuff has to be factory bought including a lot of their oils. I was totally taken aback when i checked it out then the mechanic told me it was waaaay more expensive for the range. The good news is if you can afford a $100,000.00 car then you can afford the maintenance. If yo're buying a used one beware.

[@kulykski123]

best SUV on the market hands down. i have driven Cayenne's, GL's, ML's, Q7's, Q5's, X5's, X6's, and nothing compares. yes its a bit pricey but the quality of everything is phenominal (except the cameras they're like 240p maybe 360p at most).

[@MrNanah38]

They paid you

[@BuckeyeMCS]

Love this review! Much better than the recent Lexus RC-F review. I can see the someone on Range Rover board of directors saying "Reginald, did he just say he was busting our balls?" LOL. Only thing I have issue with is the assumption that it can go places where the Wrangler Rubicon can't.

[@rodrigosarcinelli]

Nice review! Like this guy.

[@georgesvideos2328]

Why doesn't AK do an FLDTour? D:

[@amcox96]

I like this guy, informative and interesting, but he said "truck" too much imo. Could have said "vehicle" or "range rover" more. Great review overall.

[@Yoda12360]

its a car not a truck (yes i live in the uk)

[@coobeans43]

I don't see why whenever a Range Rover/Land Rover is reviewed the review is focused on off-road. No one that owns a Range Rover takes it off road. The only Land Rover that people take off-road is a mid 90s defender. Have you ever seen the type of people that own new Range Rovers? They think they are better then the common man. They aren't going to go anywhere with dirt. Just review it as a luxury SUV.

[@Rome1017Lights]

Because these are built for rich people in England that don't live in cities but in counties. Those people wouldn't want to buy something like an x5

[@Oliver1556]

Rome1017 The most educated reply on here.

[@duaneadam]

First thing I did when I picked up mine was take it off road. My last one logged several hundred miles in the dirt and so will this one. Not sure why you're a hater of those who own these vehicles but those who have earned the money to buy one are entitled to do whatever they want with them including going off road as I do.

[@coobeans43]

duaneadam Dont get all but hurt friend. Your in the 1% of Range Rover owners. Im glad you use you vehicle for what it is made for. Yeah its your money do what you please. But where i live everyone that owns a Range Rover is a stuck of piece of shit that thinks since they have a "better" vehicle and more money than the rest of us "simpletons" that they own the roads. Im not saying this is you but im "entitled" to my opinion just like you are "entitled" to do whatever you want with your money.

[@duaneadam]

I can leave you with this and you can take it for what it's worth. Those who are able to spring for any six figure car would likely never visualize themselves as "simpletons". This isn't arrogance, it's a mindset that allows one to move forward in life. You may be surprised that those who you deem a "stuck piece of shit" may be more than willing to extend a hand and bring you along to their level. I would. Hatred and resentments are ankle braces. Try losing them and see where your life goes. Peace.

[@NicholasMatthews]

What is the background music?

[@reko3103]

How does this compare to the new Lexus LX 570?

[@powerofpinesol8002]

Amazing vehicle...... The only bad thing is that there are some cheap spots in the cabin but I can really care less as look as they are somewhere I never touch.

[@ericalourd4051]

[@omarrana102]

Haha oh man. Sorry!

[@omarrana102]

I'll interact more. Usually I'm logged in through the FLD account! Ask us anything and tag us and we will reply!

[@TheHumancentipad1]

Omar Rana What would you say is the best SUV on the market currently?

[@omarrana102]

+TheHumancentipad1 depends on your price point and the segment you're shopping in. In the $90k+ range I would say Mercedes GL or the Cadillac Escalade.

[@miVijayShinde]

at 9:03 i could see reflection of headlights well below the chassis...just wondering how it occurred... :D.....but huge fan of range rover.....

[@ZWillis12]

Why is off-roading capability such a necessity? Seriously how many people look for a car specifically for the fact that it can take them on some hills and shit?

[@TheMisterTroll02]

People who lives on some hills or shit

[@henrykincaid6821]

Becuase range rovers have always been designed to carry the rich around in the Home Counties of England, they have never been designed for fashionistas in Beverley hills and so decent off road capabilities are a necessity.

[@ZWillis12]

Ahhh makes sense

[@robloxfilmproducfulrbxvide8827]

TheMisterTroll02 lol

[@Disciple_2819]

people with money that can do whatever they want.

[@Kxji]

Best SUV in my OPINION.

[@ddtfundamental1640]

its a truly a race suv car!

[@armanzmn]

KZbin please give my the power to dislike a video more then ones....... he said its a truck 6 times (at least).... WTF

[@UltimateCARNUT]

First let me start by saying that I love the Range Rover sport..... But man did you oversell its offroad capabilities. In terms of pure capability it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that a Wrangler Rubicon unlike this review says would pretty much leave this thing for dead in the real rough stuff. Quite frankly a a bunch of other off road vehicles including Xterra 4x4 would also probably own this thing off road. Is it capable for a luxury car? yes. Is it really more capable than other vehicles that were primarily engineered to be capable off road... NO... is it better than a crossover... of course.

[@wantsanewvehicle]

You say the cameras are crap (I'm sure they are..) but I'm pretty sure my phone has a bigger screen than this does lmao. It's probably a little more capable than a subaru, but I very very very highly doubt that this is more capable than a wrangler, especially a rubicon.

[@ryanpoore9425]

Hey, anyone know the song?

[@semaailee]

Airbag suspension????!?!!!!!!

[@spillow762]

Truck ?

[@ilkeratabay1056]

This is what i want ... PERFECTT

[@johngallop4761]

Danny do a mclaren 650s or some sorta ferrari

[@warrenh8709]

Song?

[@omarrana102]

Max! I want to know too! We finally have some nice background music!

[@DanCooper-zs9gw]

It actually has a top speed of 155 mph

[@jeromeburrasca6710]

One of my old girlfriends had one of these. It was a total POS. Headliner fell down, always overheated and the window seals suck. If you want one of these you can buy them for 18K at auction after 3 years. ;o)

[@bryandoherty9399]

I like the Range Rover, but not the design of the Range Rover Sport, but that isn't a problem, I can get regular Range Rover with the 510hp V8 too and the features are all the same. Way better than the Escalade that can't go off road... Lol

[@ruskiyify91]

I didn't see it do any offroading, unless you call that offroad. I did more offroad things on my minivan.

[@ChaoTime101]

There is no comparison between this and a Jeep Rubicon. Probably should edit that out. Very nice SUV though.

[@ShaunJW1]

I own a Audi A3 tfsi. I chuckled at the USB port issue. What was Audi thinking...

[@GamingTurkey]

Top speed 133 mph are you high wtf ?

[@orlandovazquez1707]

It’s more right?

[@user-zm4fe7fs9p]

WHY do "reviews" tell me so much I could know looking at it for the first time. Get in the back seat. 3rd row. Explore what it might be like to live with it beyond talking about sleek look and sticker and discussing off road capability as you creep down a trail a Ford Fusion could handle.

[@swinglow33]

You would think on a 92K vehicle, there would be better tires than the mediocre ones they come with. I seriously doubt this will go where the Rubicon can when taking it on a true off road trail (or lack thereof).

[@NileshR12]

This isn't a truck - it's a crossover/ crossover S.U.V./ SUV/ S.U.V./ SUV.

[@akilh340]

reliability?

[@MegaTimothy88]

Lol "it will take a beating" yeah till something breaks.

[@NZsarge1]

Yeah, it's a range rover after all..

[@MrPeterthepilot]

You're kind of out of date with this. Reliability has been largely sorted -you can still get a duff one but then you can with any car. I've had three and never had a single problem with any of them so don't really understand what the reliability thing is all about....

[@ZenGamer97]

more from Tom!

[@kabirsingh8993]

The top speed of this car is NOT 133 MPH

[@Teamfujisande]

This is not a truck! IT is a SUV. Truck is a pickup.

[@Teamfujisande]

yhea

[@reydavid6882]

Why do you call it a truck, cause for me it's an SUV

[@ZombieFish19]

There is no way this beats a Rubicon off road. Who cares if it has way more torque, it is also way heavier and sits lower.

[@FerRoXa]

Nice video; in my opinion, a carmaker should take pride of reaching those horsepower only if you improve the MPG. I would not justify it "if you can afford it"; we already know they can afford it; still, for me those values are unacceptable for XXI century car. As you well know, nowadays any carmaker can design and build cars with high HP (it doesn't impress me much, though); show me an equally spectacular MPG, then you will get my attention. Peace out.

[@ujz]

What car from your knowledge has a v8 engine with high MPG I'm curious to know. Looking to buy either a c63 or Range Rover sport. Preferably more than 2 seats

[@sergesimonin8837]

Need one...

[@bicyclexx7]

Obviously you never driven the Jeep have you heard of one

[@Emurphy212]

rather get the srt grand cherokee but then again, thats my opinion.

[@wantsanewvehicle]

Emmett M You and me both!

[@Emurphy212]

***** id take the X5M. you?

[@blisfizasmr7434]

x6M

[@headcas620]

***** This. Bitches love land rovers.

[@Kxji]

dazz bog You can't go off roading on an X6...

[@NZsarge1]

Any Porsche SUV over this, would smoke the RR for driving appeal on the road where they'd spend 99% of their time and the Porsche's after exactly rubbish off road either, capable of going anywhere you'd be comfortable taking an SUV of this value anyway.

[@MrPeterthepilot]

Cayenne is a nice car but the interiors are all buttons and bling. RRS is a better cruiser and I love the understated elegance...

[@NZsarge1]

Definitely each to their own, the Range Rover's are very nice for sure but the Porsche Macan would be my preference or the Audi SQ5 given my off road requirements are minimal.

[@bril2231]

I'd buy this.. I just dont have $90,000.

[@anjoLas]

WE WANT SARA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@DanFrederiksen]

Allahu akbar!

[@mammadovv1]

[@nonatoalvescomercial]

R$ 500.000 here in Brazil. :( 250.00 Dollars :(

[@AwesomeNiel]

My cell phone has a better camera... Ofcourse U r taking pictures with it.. The backup cameras just help you out

[@futmut1000]

to be real no one buys these suvs to go offroad, maybe once in their life...so you drive it on asphalt as any other car...then definitely the porsche cayenne offers more on handling, performance and the price is almost the same...but you know your driving a porsche who is technologically superior and never lets you down..not a damn rover..

[@dailyforman]

lets put it in sport mode aaaaaand 5 gallons of fuels is gone. Just gone.

[@videonaj]

Wasting gas worth it, oh, hasn't anyone told America about Climate Change and the danger of fossil fuels? Did someone send that memo?

[@RidiculousComedy00]

for god's sake americans look up the word 'truck'.

[@bighands69]

Truck usually means cargo carrier and Americans use a lot of Pick ups which technically are trucks. And they also carry the term over into large SUV's today and pick ups. Europeans call them 4x4 but not all are 4x4. Stop getting hung up on cultural names it does you know good and will stress you out.

[@SurfTheKaliYuga]

i can tolerate the word truck because as the dork above stated it's more of a cultural thing, but saying aluminum is just fucking retarded...

[@ImperfectionistGamer69]

GTA 5 BALLER

[@ImsHybrid]

He said truck way to many times

[@Da51lva]

Please do call it Range Rover instead of truck. It's offensive and you should apologise!

[@Bravowilly]

And you should learn how to spell.

[@Da51lva]

William Taylor wow really? You do not understand what I wrote?

[@MegaTimothy88]

A full spec land cruiser will eat this thing up off road.

[@elcucuycucy4889]

Who cares about gas when you can afford a land rover!

It's not a fucking truck it's a suv
