Range Rover Sport review - Reliability and safety
Safety levels for the Range Rover Sport are top notch, and customer satisfaction with Land Rover is improving
The Range Rover Sport is yet to feature in our Driver Power customer satisfaction survey, although the smaller Discovery Sport and Evoque models were represented on 2023’s 75-car list. Land Rover itself has achieved a much needed improvement in the manufacturer rankings, and now finds itself at a respectable 14th place out of 32 brands.
Industry safety body Euro NCAP awarded the Range Rover Sport a top five-star rating with both adult and child occupant protection achieving an 85 per cent score. On-board safety systems also performed well, with the Driver Assist category earning an 82 per cent mark.
Land Rover certainly hasn’t scrimped on safety tech for the Sport, with all models including lane keep assist and blind spot assist functions, adaptive cruise control with steering assist, a rear traffic monitor, traffic sign recognition and automatic emergency braking.
Front and rear parking sensors and a 3D surround view camera are also offered as standard which will help make parking manoeuvres a little easier, while the automatic park assist system is available if you trade up to an Autobiography model.
Warranty
Land Rover offers a three-year/unlimited mileage warranty for the Range Rover. The cover includes 36 months of roadside assistance, while you can also extend the warranty for up to ten years/100,000 miles at extra cost.
Servicing
Buyers have the opportunity to purchase a service plan, either via a one-off payment or more flexible monthly instalments.
