2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Road Test Ratings

Exterior design is superb, but the supercharger-powered engine offers less performance than expected.

Powerful, but rather disappointing performance for something marketed as "Sport."

Ride is a bit firmer than a Range Rover, but still tolerable even with optional 20-inch wheels.

Some of the controls are over-complicated, most notably the audio system.

The Range Rover Sport's exterior design is its best feature. The interior design, however, is too derivative of the LR3, and shares its fit and finish issues.
