When speed and luxury takes primary importance, the Range Rover Sport should be the vehicle of choice. Powered by the 4.2 liter V8 supercharged power plant, this stormer runs to a higher top speed compared to its siblings, topping out at 224 km/h. its gusty 405 lb-ft of torque also allows this 4x4 to tow more than 7,700 lbs of load. Not to be daunted by the rough stuff, the Range Rover Sport is equally adept at the off-road chores as well. It’s got the adaptive air suspension that raises the standard ride height by an extra 2.17 inches. Terrain Response is also present in this vehicle, allowing for optimized traction depending on road surface. But given the standard 20 inch rims that it comes with, would you really want to take this baby off-roading? Understandably, some guys will answer yes given the Land Rover pedigree and the impressive off-road skills that it has. However, would be owners will be foolhardly not to tap the immense on-road capability of this vehicle. The Range the lot, and its got 390 force-fed horses to propel it from naught to 100km/h in 7.6 seconds. Now feel free to hunt that Cayenne Turbo down when you see it!
