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.
