The 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is unranked in Luxury Midsize SUVs due to missing safety data. Currently, the Land Rover Range Rover Sport's overall score is not available, though its Critics' Rating, Performance score, and Interior score are based on our evaluation of 40 pieces of research and data.

Pros
Powerful engine lineup
Composed ride and handling
Solid off-road ability
Luxe cabin materials

Cons
Distracting infotainment and climate controls
Below-average predicted reliability

By:

Land Rover has made few changes to its mid-size Range Rover Sport for 2021. Besides a revised in-cabin air ionizer, the HSE Silver Edition model joins the lineup and the Premium Black Pack appearance package is now available on the HSE Dynamic trim. The HSE Silver Edition model comes standard with silver exterior trim and unique 21-inch black wheels with a diamond-turned finish. .

Pros
Plenty of powertrain choices,
upscale exterior styling,
luxurious interior trappings.

Cons
Tight third-row passenger space,
buggy infotainment system seems,
not a fuel-efficient choice.
