Why the 2024 Range Rover Sport Outshines the 2024 BMW X6: A Comprehensive Comparison!

[@philedwards7174]

I own the Range Rover Sport. I've previously owned new BMW cars for in excess of 25 years. My current Range Rover replaced a Velar. Having owned both BMW & RRs I honestly believe the RR is the better car; it has a huge luxury presence, its incredibly comfortable and economical. It has looks and image of quality, and contrary to some views has proved to be totally reliable.

[@svbladel]

I agree 🙋

BMW any day of the week. The Range Rover will spend half its life in the service dept. Btw the suspension in an x6 is firmer than an x5. This comparison is a little bit silly

[@chrism869]

didnt you know that the rangerover uses a bmw powertrain so it will definitely be more reliable than ever

[@Bimmer_Bill]

Allanhyde264, exactly everyone knows Range Rover is one of the worst brands in reliability. Anyone who recommends it over a BMW suv is either biased or a masochist.

[@Bimmer_Bill]

@@chrism869did you know that the engine and transmission make up 0.2% of the total parts of the car? The fact that Range Rover uses them doesn’t account for the 99.8% of the trash parts.

[@bcraftin7846]

You probably never owned a Rover? And you obviously don’t know BMW’s? My son is a Bimmer technician…and we both agree that Rovers are way more reliable than BMW. I still like them both. 👍🏽

[@Bimmer_Bill]

Are you actually disputing OBJECTIVE DATA compiled from tens of thousands of rovers over the past few years? Or are your and your son’s anecdotal opinions of higher value? Do you need me to provide the data or can you use Google (consumer reports, road and track, motor trend)? No publication that’s right no publication recommends them for reliability. The same cannot be said for the X5. I’ve owned six BMW’s dating back 30 years (1994 M5) and currently own a 2024 M3. I’m quite familiar. But that’s my experiences, again objective data not subjective opinion is what counts.

[@khanmahmood2690]

Sam, Thank you for the excellent unbiased review. I have owned and driven BMW X5 and 3-series for over 20 years. BMW X5 was a well designed SUV. Unfortunately, the current design appears to look like Japanese fade with using 90, 30 and 45 degree line body sculpture. These shapes lacks exquisiteness, they will date rapidly like 1980's Subaru XT6. Similarly, their interior lacks design excellence or originality, it is simply functional design. They don't shout luxury that Range Rover or Bentley exudes. Quality of interior material is a grade higher than Toyota Camry not Lexus. BMW petrol 6 and 8 cylinder engines have been known to have had history of problem particularly with oil leaks and timing belt which still remains today. BMW knows that high engine output means high heat dissipation requiring excellent engine heat management system. They miserably fail this challenge by using plastic parts instead of steel (to save weight) in their coolant system which always prematurely fails. I have experienced this first hand in my ownership. Whilst BMW vehicles are more reliable than Range Rover but nothing like Lexus. In contrast, Range Rover designers designs and builds their SUV as an statement of exquisiteness, as if it is curved from a single piece of granite block. They don't copy bits of pieces from other car manufacturers. Their interior follows Bentley's fastidious plush finish. It is true that Range Rover Sport is not brisk both in 6 or 8 cylinders compared to BMW. Similarly, high centre of gravity and air suspension means that it does not handle as well. These attributes are by design. You don't want to be seen in a super luxury SUV driving like a drag racer. You just want to glide on the road and remain cocooned in your world without seeking attention from other road users. What is holding Range Rover back is their lack of quality control culture. They need to engage quality control specialists from Rolls Royce aircraft engine manufacturer ( No 1 choice of engine for Boeing and Airbus) to assist them to instill quality control culture in their manufacturing DNA. Thanks.

[@Tealtealr]

BMW X5 For sure.. But RR has a different charm and club.. they don’t care about BMW

[@sid1852]

X5 >>> X6

[@gummiesrule88]

Comparing a 6 to an 8 is dicey. RR has 8s available. I'm surprised your buddies at the dealership didn't loan you one for this comparison. For me, as much as I like that green, the shape of the X6 has always been a deal-killer for me. I just traded in a 2021 F-Pace SVR, which I loved, for a 2025 RR Sport 530p V8 with good options (like those 23" wheels), which my better half loved more. The RR is definitely more of a luxury gig, a lot heavier, but definitely a high-end ride. Getting used to it fast....

[@jr1885]

The new Range Rover Sport is so bland compared to the last generation. It’s like LR wanted you to spend more money to get the larger Range Rover, which looks stunning on the road. Surprisingly the X6 is aging pretty well to say it’s been on the market for 4 years. Personally I would take the Range. They just feel more special to drive.
