The 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is a slightly smaller and more agile SUV that offers similar luxury features at a lower price tag. It is not really different from the regular Range Rover. All the sport models come standard with an all-wheel-drive system and offer a range of engines to choose from including a gasoline-powered inline-six, a plug-in hybrid four-cylinder, a powerful supercharged V8 and a turbocharged diesel engine. The off-road capability features are usually in line with Land Rover’s heritage and are standard on this model. Most Range Rover Sport models are seen more as stylish and luxurious family cruisers than dirt-road type of vehicles.
Newly included for the 2021 model, asides from the revised in-cabin air loner are the HSE Silver Edition model which joins the line-up and the Premium Black Pack appearance package is now available on the HSE Dynamic trim.
2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Engine And Performance
The 2021 Range Rover Sport comes with Land Rover’s excellent all-wheel-drive system and an exceptional eight-speed automatic transmission is included. The SUV is also offered in five engine types which include diesel, plug-in hybrid, a mild hybrid, and a supercharged V8. All these engines produce impressive performance but the best is the stronger 395 horsepower engine that is produced by the 3.0-liter inline-six cylinder gas engine found in the HST model.
The SE and HSE model has a 35 horsepower version of the same engine and is also excellent. The diesel-powered variants of the SE and HSE have better fuel mileage but they are not as efficient as the mild hybrid or the plug-in hybrid models. Prospective buyers looking for a better model option that has more performance should go for the HSE Dynamic and Autobiography trims which come with a 518 horsepower supercharged V8 engine.
2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Fuel Economy
There are so many engine options that the 2021 Range Rover Sport’s estimated fuel economy is a bit sporty. The diesel-powered models have an estimated fuel economy of 22 mpg city run and 28 highway run. The fuel economy rating of the Range Rover Sport PHEV is not so impressive and it is the only model that can be driven solely on electricity for short periods.
2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Interior
The 2021 Range Rover Sport has a close dimensional size to that of a full-size Range Rover model. Both SUVs have a 115-inch wheelbase that gives the Range Rover Sport more back seat space than its rival. The Range Rover Sport is also available with a small friendly third-row seat that makes its seating capacity expand from five to seven but this third-row option is not available in the plug-in hybrid models. Its front seats are firm and supportive and the rear seat air conditioning vents and controls are standard. The cargo space is a generous 28 cubic feet behind the second row. The PHEV models offer 3.0 cubic feet less because the pack of the battery is stored beneath the cargo area which raises the SUV’s cargo floor by two inches. The Land Rover’s reclining second-row seats fold flat easily which expands the cargo space to 59.0 cubic feet which are average for a mid-size luxury SUV class.
