The L461-generation Range Rover Sport was revealed on 11 May 2022, with minimalist styling inside and out, and powertrain options ranging from MHEV, PHEV and a twin-turbo V8. Based on the MLA-Flex platform, it sits 20mm lower and is 35 percent stiffer than the standard L461 Range Rover.
The high-performance SV variant gains updated suspension with air springs, hydraulically interlinked semi-active adaptive dampers and a pitch control system, which according to Land Rover is an industry first. The height adjustable air springs sit 10mm lower than in the standard car, though if the SV button on the steering wheel is pressed, the ride height drops an additional 15mm, the dampers stiffen, and the throttle and gearbox responses are sharpened. The car also features a more direct steering rack and a recalibrated four-wheel steering system.
A set of 23-inch forged wheels save unsprung mass compared to standard rims, resulting in the SV’s ability to pull 1.1G through bends on all-season tyres. Additional weight is saved via the use of a carbon fibre bonnet and a range of other carbon trim pieces on the SV-specific body kit.
The previous 5.0-litre supercharged V8 is replaced by a BMW-sourced, Range Rover-tuned 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged unit with mild hybrid technology, producing 626bhp and 750Nm of torque (60bhp and 50Nm up on the previous car), driven through an eight-speed automatic paddle shift gearbox and an active rear differential. The result is a 0-62mph sprint time of 3.8 seconds.
A set of 23-inch carbon fibre wheels are optional. At this size, they’re another world first, and help to trim a further 8.9kg from each corner. The carbon wheels come fitted as standard in a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 5 summer tyres developed specifically for the SV, further improving the peak G-force figure.
Further weight can be saved with optional carbon ceramic brake discs, which trim 34kg compared to the cast iron discs. The discs up front measure 440mm, and are gripped by eight-piston Brembo callipers.
