An optional Terrain Response 2 system bundled with a host of convenience items in the Vision Assist package includes an automatic mode for the traction control system that, as its name implies, requires the driver to make few decisions when a mogul or dirt road is encountered. The supercharged 5.0-liter V-8, meanwhile, begins with 510 hp but is upgraded to 550 hp with the revised-for-2017 SV Autobiography Dynamic.Īll four options are mated to an 8-speed automatic and, as you might expect, permanent four-wheel drive with a multi-mode traction control system accessed at the turn of a knob. Perhaps even more impressive is the optional 3.0-liter turbodiesel V-6 that delivers a hefty 443 pound-feet of torque and is rated at 29 mpg on the highway, all while accelerating nearly as quickly as the gas engine.
The standard gas-fueled supercharged 3.0-liter V-6 in the short wheelbase model boasts a solid 340 horsepower and can sprint to 60 mph in a hair over seven seconds. Today's Range Rover lineup consists of two V-6 engines-gas and diesel-and a V-8 available in two states of tune. For 2017, the SV Autobiography Dynamic builds on last year's SV Autobiography but is built as a standard wheelbase rather than the extended model. The SV Autobiography Dynamic, however, is basically a sports car with a big body-and it has the chops to back up those looks. Even the base model is decadent and imposing, but the Autobiography adds subtly classy hints. Two wheelbases are now on offer, a move that echoes the first generation Range Rover toward the end of its model run. The full-size Range Rover's classic look combines the lines of the original with a decidedly aerodynamic influence, resulting in a modern take on the boxy, upright theme. The Range Rover is the largest and most traditional. Land Rover has expanded its Range Rover into an entire lineup of vehicles: The Range Rover serves as its flagship, with the Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Evoque serving as family-oriented and style-oriented models, respectively. We give it a rating of 8.8, one of our highest scores under our revised rating system. The lineup grows from there through a staggering array of trim level-HSE, Supercharged, Autobiography, and SV Autobiography Dynamic-and engine combinations that start with a robust supercharged V-6 and climb to a ferocious 550-horsepower V-8.Īs such, it is possible to more than double the price of entry-but few vehicles short of a Bentley Bentayga pamper the same way. Even the base standard wheelbase model, at around $87,000, will leave few wanting more. While the original Range Rover that hit the market back in 1970 was decidedly primitive, the latest version is among the most advanced vehicles ever built. The Land Rover Range Rover continues to blend more than 45 years of globetrotting off-road heritage with the latest advances in technology and refinement to create a remarkable balance between luxury and capability over any kind of terrain.
