We get up-close and personal with the new 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. Following the footsteps of the new Range Rover, the Sport shrinks that package while offering the same level of interior quality and fresh design.

Land Rover offers the new Sport with a pair of mild-hybrid turbocharged 3.0-liter straight-six engines. It makes 355 horsepower (264 kilowatts) and 369 pound-feet (500 Newton-meters) of torque in the P360 SE, but that increases to 395 hp (294 kW) and 406 lb-ft (550 Nm) in the P400 SE Dynamic.

Sitting above those in the lineup is the P440e Autobiography, the plug-in hybrid with the turbo 3.0-liter. This model delivers 434 hp (323 kW) and 619 lb-ft (839 Nm) of torque. Land Rover says the PHEV will offer an estimated 48 miles of all-electric range thanks to its 105-kilowatt electric motor and 31.8-kilowatt-hour battery. The plug-in can hit 60 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in 5.5 seconds.

Those wanting the most oomph will have to pick the P530 First Edition. It packs a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 making 523 hp (390 KW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque. The top-tier SUV hits 60 in 4.3 seconds with Dynamic Launch engaged.

Each engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive. A pure-electric variant arrives in 2024 alongside an all-electric Range Rover.
