[@beleskefe2126]

Wow. It did not break down during filming. A miracle

[@lexus-lfa]

i was going to say the same thing

[@andyniblett8986]

Here in the u.k - spoke to a lot of range rover owners recently , with the question of reliability . Those that had them serviced regularly at a dealership or registered repair shop , had few issues , and loved them

[@chifineart]

What a unique joke.

[@jake2772]

That’s what editing is for 😂

[@crecasens]

I always hear about these things breaking down, and I was curious to know how much that has changed or not either. I wanted a sport for a long time, but have looked more heavily into the Cayenne, because I hear about reliability issues, so much with land rover products

[@DownshiftPass]

Fellas... that ending; iconic! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂! I think we all knew where that story headed!! Beautifully spec'd Sport nonetheless!

[@TZ281]

Not sure how I feel about the new sport. The sides still look like the old, with the Velar rear end, Evoque head lights, and the full size front bumper.

[@krane15]

You may think the styling changes aren't dramatic, but always keep in mind that maintaining subtle changes also add to increased value for previously purchase vehicles.

[@jadeandersonandimnotagirlt6496]

I don’t like the back at all, looks like a Kia

[@luckyu521]

I don’t like the back and the lower front grill. Interior looks nice.

[@harry9937]

Jakubs launch with the very audible stab of the throttle is fantastic

[@andymantoronto]

80% of Range Rovers are still on the road today, the other 20% made it home. I don't care how unreliable they are, if I had that kind of money I would lease one with the best warranty money can buy.

[@chuckles069]

Trust me, they have good warranties, up to 7 years over here, but they get you on the time it spends in the service.

[@ethan5981]

on a 3 year lease u dont need to buy an extended warranty tho

[@user-xw4vg1vy5e]

That's why I loved Sewell BMW. Whenever my 750 was in the shop, they always asked if I wanted a loaner car. They even loaned me a brand new 750 and I loved it. The msrp was above $100,000 on it.

[@mkong3]

My car was in the shop for 5 weeks for a sunroof leak. It's not fun having a 10 month old car in the shop for over 1 month!!

[@rabelanimufhadi874]

😂😂😂😂

[@bds990]

In previous generations i normally preferred the look of the sport but this generation i prefer the full size model…. The full size looks more futuristic

[@Marc-nc9yv]

I have the 2020 P525 with the old super charged engine, my wife has the 2021 BMW X5 M50i with this engine. The old engine sounds better but this engine is better for sure. The RRS looks the beans, its best looking SUV sold IMO. Great job as always guys. I will get this new one in a year or so when they make this engine not in the first edition.

[@TheStraightPipes]

Accurate comment haha

[@v12-s65]

yes but the P525 is waaaay cooler even if the X5 is much quicker. Getting the P525 moving is a lot more fun with that soundtrack

Still both unreliable

Literally my first posted comment on KZbin but feels warranted. I really appreciate how you guys plug your channel partners. You have developed a great review format that I enjoy watching both for informational and entertainment purposes while managing to support your channel partners without it being a distraction. As the channel has grown I have witnessed that growth as well which runs parallel I'm sure. Be conscious of that growth as it compelled me to positively comment but is dangerously close to crossing into ubiquitous territory that loses the charm.

[@TheStraightPipes]

Thanks very much

[@gregp.7148]

Last 40 seconds was the best 😁. Lesson, buy it new, while it's under warranty!

[@jusnass303]

you can still buy it used if it’s under 5 year or 50,000 miles warranty. 😄

[@DeuceDeuceBravo]

Seems pretty damn perfect. And thank you Range Rover for not putting a big stupid shift lever in the console! 👍

[@boiwedcat4155]

Can't wait to see how the new SVR will look!

[@universaldragonninja]

They need to do an update on these new Range Rovers to see if reliability improved. I would love for these to be more reliable. They’d be awesome to buy in 10 years when they become more affordable.

[@ROBO_fx]

If they were reliable in 10 years they still wont be affordable.

[@v12-s65]

kind of the wrong thinking for these kind of cars mate..

[@hellodzheng00]

Nah ... they will lose half their value in as little as 3 years when their lease ends.

@@hellodzheng00 nooo actually ?? Well guess what maybe that happens to every luxury car? Cough Cough BMW M8 going from 200k to 100 within 2 and a half years. Range Rovers hold value too good here in europe

[@PapiAndrey]

I wonder why they chose the N63 instead of the S68. N63 isn’t known for its great reliability

[@v12-s65]

@TheStraightPipes 3:12 funny y'all mentioned it because this is the base spec Meridian out of 3 choices haha, but it obviously still sounds pretty decent 4:30 that is a special cloth that they have chosen to enhance speaker acoustics and for the listener to not know where the sound exactly is coming from, so that the sound stage seems larger

[@danmurphy1994]

Imagine how comfortable it would be if you swapped the 20/21/22 inch rims for 17s or 18s whatever the smallest possible diameter rims would be and equipped some much larger sidewall non run flat tires. Also even quieter if you specced the sunroof delete option.

[@v12-s65]

it actually would not! My 20" wheels are more comfortable than the 18 winters. All comes down to the specific tire and the stiffer it gets the more side wall it has.

[@wax333]

the brakes are massive. and it would honestly look silly. with really small wheels

[@wtfchazpwnt]

@E53 all else equal more sidewall results in more ride comfort...

[@colbycarithers]

On my m550i, I went from 20s with runflats, to 19s with non-runflats and the ride and sound level was much better, night and day

[@v12-s65]

@@colbycarithers well bro 20s are 245/35 you can't compare that to the Range Rover with 285/40 tires haha. Ofc run flats are a bit harder and the difference in comfort to 245/40 is huge

[@Austin-vz5qt]

I'm a wholesale Car broker. I literally buy cars on auction for a living and give them to dealers. (I'm a broker for a group of new dealerships) we have range rover, BMW, lexus, Ford, Hyundai, Honda, jeep etc, 22 stores. I know my stuff about cars okay. Here's an example from today at our Land Rover Store: someone wanted to trade in a 2019 Range Rover Sport V8 Dynamic with 36,000km and we put retail at $82,500 CAD and offered $56,490 because it needed a new sun roof(big scratch) for $10,000, new tail light for $4000, paint work for $2,500 safety, and brakes came to $4,000 tires were OK. But on the other hand, someone bought a 2023 Range Rover Sport and traded it in for a 2023 Range Rover full size and we paid what the customer paid. Easy rule of thumb in my opinion is $5-10000 depreciation a year makes sense. The low ball offers is because people don't take care of their shit - especially luxury car owners. People trade in brand new Porsches for new BMW's and the car has 10,000km and its curbed, dog chewed, bent, dinged, scratched up, brakes worn down. VS someone who trades in their Toyota they take care of it and it's mint. RANGE ROVERS ARE AMAZING your mad if you can't afford a nice new one

[@Austin-vz5qt]

And also margins. If I a dealer can sell a Honda CRV in 5 days yeah they don't mind making $500. But if it takes a dealer 200 days to sell a Range Rover, they better be making $7,000. That's also why luxury cars "depciate" faster

I think the full size looks more sporty than the sport lol. I think the biggest problem is you have this big slab of a rear end and the rear tail-lights are simply way too small.

[@TheMystro1971]

A BMW engine in a Range Rover says it all. The BMW X7 is miles better in build quality and road feeling. Having owned the Range Rover and it constantly in the shop so I went back to the German vehicles that are so much better built. The fact Range Rover is using a BMW V8TT is exactly why one buys a BMW X7 M50i as its engineered better from the ground up using all their own engines with better tech and handles like a BMW and not a floaty boat.

[@costaricasurf66]

I just noticed in my 2023 Range Rover sport p400 se dynamic and no sliding visor and no double visor fail fail. Also the black console is so horrible I find myself cleaning it so much I ordered a 2024 Range Rover P400. You can’t even option that gloss black smear fest of a center console out of any spec . Full size also come standard with rear wheel steer which make a big difference in parking and handling. I had a 2022 Range Rover P400 but sold it for the flip then got the sport but for 15k more the full size is the way to go in my opinion.
