Used Range Rover 2022-present reliability review

What should I look for in a used Land Rover Range Rover?

What are the most common problems with a used Land Rover Range Rover?

Range Rovers are frequently used in urban areas, so check the bodywork for any obvious signs of damage and the wheels and bumpers for scuffs. It’s also quite possible cars will have been used off-road, so check the underside of the car for any stone chips or scrapes.

Range Rovers are filled with gadgets and gizmos, so it’s important to check whether the electrics work. Make sure the seats move as they should, and do the same for the tailgate. Make sure the air suspension goes up and down as it should, too.

There’s plenty of leather and carpeting in the interior, so be sure to have a proper look around for signs of wear and tear. Have a look in the boot too, because there’s a high chance a dog might have spent some time in there.

Is a used Land Rover Range Rover reliable?

The fifth-generation Range Rover didn’t feature in the luxury car category of our latest Reliability Survey, but its close relative, the Range Rover Sport, finished in third place out of 16 cars with a score of 94.9%. That’s better than in previous years, where Range Rover models have finished near or at the bottom of the survey. It’s also better than the Porsche Cayenne and Mercedes GLE, but it’s still in the lower half of the rankings. The BMW X5 and Lexus RX are more reliable.

Land Rover isn’t famous for its dependability, and in previous years it finished at the bottom of the brand section of our Reliability Survey. While it has improved in our 2025 rankings, finishing 26th out of 30 brands, it’s still not in a good position. Among premium car brands, only Alfa Romeo fared worse, while BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Volvo and Lexus all scored much better.
