Range Rover Sport HSE 2.0 4WD
The Range Rover Sport got a facelift last year and this time around it’s in the news for its engine. This new version of the Sport comes powered by a, wait for it, 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. If you’ve seen a Range Rover Sport in the metal, you wouldn’t be wrong to think that’s too small an engine for so large an SUV. However, this isn’t any other 2.0 unit.
This Jaguar Land Rover Ingenium family engine uses a twin-scroll turbocharger to eke out every last bit of power available. It’s the same engine that powers the base Jaguar F-Type P300. The final power and torque figures stand at 300hp and 400Nm. For reference, the Sport’s supercharged V6 petrol makes 340hp and 450Nm of torque while the V6 diesel is down on power (258hp) but substantially up on torque (600Nm).
If anything, the new engine at least deserves a fair hearing.
Leave the engine and 8-speed automatic gearbox to their own devices and you’ll find power delivery to be nice and progressive. The build of speed is friendly, something you’ll appreciate in town. It’s just that when you want that punch, you’ll have to press down hard on the accelerator to get the engine excited. The engine comes into its element after 2,000rpm and there on there’s a constant supply of power till almost 6,000rpm.
We registered a 0-100kph time of 8.36sec for the Range Rover Sport. It’s not a shining figure for an SUV with ‘Sport’ in its name but you really won’t find its performance wanting.
The way the engine sounds is also nice. It doesn’t have the whine of the supercharged V6 or the rorty note of the SVR’s V8 but it’s fun to hear the four-cylinder unit’s soundtrack transition from a muted growl to a louder snarl as you press on. Whoever tuned the acoustics of the engine sure has done a good job. In town too, the engine runs quiet and smooth and overall refinement is not much down on the larger-hearted petrols.
If anything, it’s the 8-speed automatic transmission that fumbles on occasion in low speed settings. It’s a non-issue really and should you want to take manual control of gearshifts, there are paddleshifters and manual shifts at the gear lever too.
In all other areas, this Sport feels like all its siblings (barring the SVR, of course). There’s a lot of roll in the corners and you are always aware that you are driving a large and heavy SUV. On the positive side, there’s a lot of grip at all times (all-wheel drive is standard) and the nicely weighted steering also helps work a good rhythm with the SUV. Particularly good is the Sport’s ride quality. On its 20-inch rims, our test car felt more absorbent than the 21-inch-equipped versions we’ve driven in the past.
There is a mild pitter-patter at times; but on the whole, the ride is cosseting to the point you often won’t know how bad the surface beneath you really is. The ability to control the standard-fit air-suspension’s height is also handy, particularly in ingress and egress. You really do need all the help you can get to make your way into this Rangie’s high-set cabin.
As ever, you sit high-up in a Range Rover Sport, cabin space is immense and the seats are very comfortable. Land Rover has done away with the option of a third row for India but as a space for five occupants, this interior works really well.
The Range Rover Sport 2.0 Petrol is available in three trims. Air suspension, LED headlights, off-road modes, leather upholstery, reclining backrests for the rear seats and the dual-screen infotainment system are all standard across the board, while a panoramic sunroof is available from the mid-spec SE trim upwards.
