2024 Range Rover Sport SV spy shots and video
Land Rover redesigned the Range Rover Sport for 2023, and soon the SUV's high-performance variant developed by the SVO special projects group will be launched.
It's due for a reveal on May 31, and this time around will carry an SV badge, instead of the former SVR designation. We now have new footage of a prototype testing at the Nürburgring.
The previous Range Rover Sport SVR delivered an impressive combination of luxury and track capability, making it not only fast but also comfy. The new Range Rover SV should only improve on those qualities.
We know this is the SV because of the additional intakes in the front fascia, plus a diffuser integrated into the rear fascia that also houses a pair of exhaust tips on either side. You’ll also notice the enlarged brake rotors and calipers that almost fill the wheels.
Underpinning the redesigned Range Rover Sport is the MLA (Modular Longitudinal Architecture) platform of JLR (formerly Jaguar Land Rover). The platform has been designed to fit both internal-combustion and electric powertrains, and is lighter than the D7 platform it replaces. This latter attribute should help improve the performance of the Range Rover Sport SV.
Power will most likely come from a BMW-sourced twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8, an engine that delivers 523 hp in the regular Range Rover Sport. Expect it to make close to 600 hp or even more in the SV version. The supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 used in the previous Range Rover Sport SVR delivered 575 hp.
