![]() There is 37 degrees of powered recline, but that aside, it’s a pretty standard bench seat with comfortable cushioning. Rear seats on the new Sport aren’t as plush as the flagship Range Rover. The rear seat is where you’ll see the biggest difference between the Range Rover and Sport, as the seats here aren’t quite as plush. ![]() You can, of course, still get semi-aniline leather upholstery, but you can also switch it out for a leather-free interior that uses Kvadrat Ultrafabric, and like a good hi-fi audio system, the 19 speakers for the 800W Meridian system are concealed under a layer of high-quality fabric. Of particular note are the new dark chrome and forged carbon trim pieces unique to the Sport, and you’ll notice the options available are less skewed towards classic luxury than in the Range Rover. Interior panels and trim pieces feel altogether better built and finished, and the materials look expensive. It’s refreshing having these, and a few other physical controls at hand, but secondary operations like, for example, seat massage and lumbar support, are within the touchscreen.Ĭompared to its predecessor, the new Sport features a more upmarket interior with a panoramic sunroof.Īlso impressive is that the quality jump we saw in the new Range Rover has translated to this SUV too, and it’s a huge step up from the previous Sport. The intuitive context-sensitive HVAC controls return too, with a push to control fan speed and a pull to handle seat ventilation. It benefits from all the tech upgrades to the cabin too, like the latest Pivi Pro infotainment software, displayed on a crisp 13.1-inch touchscreen and a sharp new digital dial screen. It’s still a relatively tall driving position, however, and not quite as low-set as all-out performance SUVs.ġ3.1-inch touchscreen with Pivi Pro infotainment software is crisp and packed with features. The centre console flows out at more of an angle, the seats are set a few millimetres lower, and the steering wheel is a new three-spoke unit, all in the interest of imparting a sportier feel. The interior too has been given greater distinction from the Range Rover, and its sportier, raked-back dashboard is more akin to the Velar now. 2023 Range Rover Sport: interior quality vastly improved And of course, you don’t get the split tailgate or ‘Event Suite’ picnic seating that’s reserved for the flagship, but you will get a full-size spare wheel. The rear has the biggest difference, though, with slim, horizontal, wraparound tail-lamps in place of the cool new concealed vertical lamps in the big Range Rover. In India, the Dynamic styling pack is standard and adds bronze accents all around, and the wheel sizes, ranging from 21 to 23 inches, are all very sporty designs. ![]() What has been incorporated is the new minimalist profile, with door handles that sit flush with the bodywork and a window line that joins the doors without any visible sill. Its wheelbase size of 2,997mm is the same as the standard Range Rover. The nose isn’t as bolt-upright, and neither are the front or rear windscreens, while the roofline dips gently towards the rear. The headlamps and grille are far slimmer, while the front bumper features sporty air intakes. Though about the same size as the standard-wheelbase Range Rover, with an identical 2,997mm wheelbase, the new Sport gets far more distinctive styling. With so much price overlap in the Land Rover large SUV model range, you could be forgiven for confusing the previous Range Rover Sport for the similar-looking Range Rover, but that won’t be the case this time. 2023 Range Rover Sport: gets more distinctive exterior As for Land Rover’s other large, CBU-imported SUVs, the Defender is priced from Rs 91.80 lakh to Rs 2.29 crore, while the Discovery ranges from Rs 93.90 lakh to Rs 1.32 crore. For reference, prices for the flagship Range Rover go from Rs 2.39 crore to Rs 4.17 crore, while the locally assembled Range Rover Velar, positioned below the New Range Rover Sport, costs Rs 89.41 lakh. Prices of the New Range Rover Sport range from Rs 1.64 crore to Rs 1.84 crore (ex-showroom India). The Sport can be had with a 3.0-litre, mild-hybrid straight-six petrol or diesel engine. ![]() Interestingly, even if you choose a lower trim level, you can add most features individually, at a per-item cost, to get the exact specification you want without going to the higher trim. ![]() The First Edition can only be ordered in the first year of production.
