What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the Range Rover Sport is exceptionally comfortable and luxurious, very capable off road and surprisingly composed on it for its size, and What Car? praises the plug-in hybrids' long electric range. The common criticisms are the high prices and running costs and its sheer size when parking; What Car? found some rivals sharper to drive.
