Range Rover Sport

Owning a luxury car has always been about more than just getting from A to B; what we choose to drive says as much about our sense of style as the clothes we wear or the art we collect. But when it comes to the world of high-end motoring, another equally important factor enters the equation: performance.












Not surprisingly, our standards here at Wallpaper* are rather high when it comes to cars, a retail market littered with myriad tempting possibilities. One car that catches our eye in a big way is the Range Rover Sport, a delicious blend of luxury and raw power, with a distinctive road presence that's strong, solid, and thoroughly elegant.

Under the bonnet things are, in a word, impressive. A powerful 4.2 litre supercharged V8 287kW petrol engine delivers massive torque and effortless acceleration, the patented Terrain Response system ensures brilliant handling whatever the driving surface, and a state of the art braking system, incorporating Emergency Brake Assist and Dynamic Stability Control, affords maximum stopping capacity when it's needed most.

You'll feel the power every time you turn the key, that hushed roar that seems almost palpable. But with the sporty, cocoon-like cockpit, the deep wood finish, the surround sound audio and the sculpted leather seats, don't be surprised if you have pleasures of a more delicate variety on your mind.
