Is the 2019 Range Rover Sport HST P400 worth the PRICE?

The Range Rover Sport HST is here with something ALL NEW. Under the hood is a 3.0L turbocharged inline-6 w/ 48-volt hybrid system producing 400 HP & mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. On the inside you will find 21st century technology and top shelf quality materials. Does the 2019 Ranger Rover Sport bring enough performance and luxury for the price?

Brilliant balanced enthusiastic review but where criticism of certain finishes it is totally justified . I love the Sport, it retains the compact dimensions of the first Range Rover of which model my father had one of the first supplied in the UK in 1970.

Thaks for letting me share it with you!

[@jjacob25101]

This is awesome. Almost perfect, besides a few things, often agree with what you point out. I have no problem with the Range Rover emblems on the hood and rear hatch, especially in black, but I do not like any vehicle exhaust port with a pipe inside, instead of it being an actual exhaust tip. What's up with that? Stahp it! The back of the front seats is fine since it has dual msp pockets, maybe good to protect the seatbacks, but if plain backs, maybe covered in leather. And those removal ke plugs in the rear of the center console. The level of engineering, design and refinement, with intuitive ergonomics and aesthetics is incredible, and the stellar performance, refinement, and fluidity of the build. I always liked the Range Rovers, especially the newer ones, even more so now, if it were a perfect world, but I have come to realize I have to use much more scrutiny, discernment, and discrimination for considering a car for myself, or recommending one, by noting the caveats. In the real world, even the most expensive, well made vehicles may not be an advantage over a more common mainstream affordable one. With all the advancement with technology, high end cars can continue costing you mucho dinero as they get older, especially if it's not the traditional wear and tear of vehicles of old, but the breakdown of cheap materials used to cut cost, and all the electronics and sophisticated, complex systems new cars, especially advances expensive cars have. Even more so if they have unknown problematic issues like several Range Rovers and others have had. Sometimes it's specific vehicle issues and not the whole line of models. One thing to always consider. Do your research and such. If you have lots if resources, use it for business, and maybe don't drive them everyday, the problems may not be frequent. Msybe a consideration to lease vehicles like this, particularly if you have a business and can write it off on taxes.

[@scottsc63edwards86]

jjacob25101 nice write up. Don’t like the Range Rover ver lettering in black on dark coloured paints, disappears and it’s not legible.

[@jjacob25101]

@@scottsc63edwards86 I tend to like monochrome, black or gunmetal lettering, especially on Sport oriented trim levels of vehicles, but yes, they should have some visibility. I know for years, some people have used dark color, or color keyed reflective 3M material for lettering and such, like police and emergency vehicles that are subdued, but clearly visible when light shines on them.

[@stephenhendricks103]

Amusing to see the comments about the price of the Range Rover. This is a vehicle for residents of upscale suburbs like the Hamptons, or Rye, New York, and Marin County, California. It's meant to be parked on Rodeo Drive and filled with purchases from the boutiques that adorn that LA neighborhood. If you have to prioritize your purchases between a vehicle and remodeling your kitchen, the Range Rover (along with other luxury SUV's) isn't meant for you. If you, like 99+% of consumers, didn't get a significant benefit from the 2017 Trump tax cuts, you're not in the target market. If you're not a surgeon or a hedge fund manager, look elsewhere. In fact, if you even glance at the window sticker when you're shopping for a car, you're not a potential customer for the Range Rover HST. And if you think Elizabeth Warren's plan to tax fortunes over $50 million with a 2% wealth tax wouldn't affect you, you should probably consider a KIA Telluride.

[@miketheman4341]

Andres Catelan Look at any auto publication which ranks every car made including luxury brands. It’s a super high end SUV. It’s the father of this segment. All modern SUV originated with the British RR. Very high end materials and there is NOTHING else on the road that looks like a RR. Having said that it’s got a terrible reliability record. Land Rover offers one of the shortest warranty’s on the market for exactly this reason. It’s not only unreliable but it’s a fortune to repair. It makes BMW and Merc seem like a bargain to repair. The best way to own a RR is to lease one. It’s covered and you give it back just when you need to start to worry. If you have the money and don’t care about the cost to own a RR then knock yourself out. It’s a great looking machine. I own a 2019 Cayenne S which is the same class but Porsche is a reliable car company. It’s outdoes all the other Germans in reliability. It’s not as stunning as the RR but I can drive it for years without worry. Again see the reliability scores from the auto publication world. No one gives RR a good score.
