Introduction
What Car? says...
The Range Rover started out as a fairly functional, rugged vehicle, but Land Rover long ago moved it into a far more prestigious sphere, and it's now the very epitome of a full-fat luxury SUV.
While the original was designed so you could hose the mud out of its interior, recent Range Rovers have been more likely to steal sales from luxury limos than farm vehicles. There was no need to rip up the rulebook for this new sixth-generation car, then: Land Rover simply set out to build an SUV that does what the previous version did – only better.
There are petrols and diesels, both with mild-hybrid technology, and even full plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) with very impressive official electric-only ranges of up to 70 miles. A fully electric Range Rover is due on sale in 2024.
You get a lot of kit as standard, but you can of course gorge yourself on the options list to add all sorts of luxury items. They include massaging seats, noise-cancelling speakers in the headrests, ceramic dials and loads more plush interior finishes.
This latest Range Rover also offers more practicality than the previous-generation model because the long-wheelbase variant is available with seven seats instead of five. If you prefer, you can have it in 'super-luxe' four-seat form with just two separate, reclining armchairs in the rear.
So with all that choice, which version is the one to go for? And how does this luxury SUV stack up against its other illustrious rivals? That's what we'll tell you over the next few pages of this review.
