Review: 2020 Range Rover Sport PHEV P400e HSE
Let’s get one thing out of the way first: the Range Rover Sport isn’t Land Rover’s flagship SUV.

The confusing naming convention aside, there’s nothing confusing about the Range Rover Sport—this here is one desirable luxury SUV, undeniably comfortable and refined in every aspect.
