The ever popular Range Rover Sport will strengthen and consolidate
its position as the most dynamic and luxurious sports tourer in its class in
2013 with a fresh approach to its interior design options and alloy wheel
designs.
Some of the major changes to the 2013 Range Rover Sport line-up
are the choice of five new paint finishes, a striking new alloy wheel design, red
Brembo brake callipers for the Supercharged model as well as a wider choice of
interior colour combinations.
John Edwards, Land Rover Global Brand Director says “The
Range Rover Sport was substantially revised in 2011 with major powertrain
enhancements and raised equipment levels to reinforce its outstanding breadth
of capability. This year we’re going one step further, offering even more
choice with some great new colour combinations and detail improvements to
redefine the Range Rover Sport’s class-leading levels of comfort and customer
appeal.”
Customers will have the colour choice of Barolo Black,
Barossa, Causeway Grey, Havana and Mariana Black to enhance the look of their
new Range Rover Sport. A five-spoke cast alloy wheel design presented in
Sparkle Silver will further contribute to beautify the range. Red Brembo brake
callipers will be fitted to Supercharged models as standard.
Interior colour combinations include two new trim options
with the choice of a darker upper cabin and lighter seats or vice versa. Included
is either a 380W High-Ice harmon/kardon sound system with 11 speakers or the
Premium harmon/kardon Logic 7 sound system that delivers 825W from 17 speakers.
A 7-inch touchscreen offers Dual View Technology allowing the driver to view
the navigational display while the passenger watches a DVD. A hard disc drive
music server and Land Rover’s “Say What You See” voice recognition system with
screen prompts forms part of the Range Rover Sport’s advanced features.
On the engine front, nothing has changed and Range Rover Sport
still offers the 3.0-litre SDV6 Advance Sequential Turbo diesel engine capable
of 180kW with 600Nm at 2000rpm with a CO2 emissions rating of 243g/km.
The 5.0-litre V8 Supercharged petrol engine kicks out a
hefty 375kW with 625Nm at 2500-5500rpm. Both engines are mated with a ZF HP28
6-speed automatic gearbox with CommandShift as standard. The Supercharged model
comes with a steering wheel mounted PaddleShift as standard.
The 2013 Range Rover Sport line-up includes the entry-level
Range Rover Sport, the SDV6 SE, which stands alongside the previous SDV6 HSE
and the SDV6 HSE Luxury. In the petrol stable, the Supercharged derivative stands
alongside the flagship model, the Supercharged Autobiography Sport,
representing the pinnacle of the Range Rover Sport line-up.
