There are few SUVs on the market that have a look and feel like a Land Rover, and the 2016 Range Rover Sport exterior carries on with the design that has drawn drivers to the lineup for years. While the old angular and bold design can be seen in the current model, 2016 has brought curves to the SUV as well, bringing a slight slope to the rear and letting the hood transition a bit more smoothly to the aggressive front end with “Land Rover” located front and center above the grille. Available adaptive xenon headlamps with LED signature lighting give the crossover a unique profile that makes it instantly recognizable on the road.

While the exterior is classic with a touch of modern, the 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport interior weaves traditional luxuries with advanced technologies as if they’ve been integrated in the cabin since the first Land Rover rolled off of the assembly line. In addition to standards like leather upholstery, 14-way power-adjustable front seating, and an 8-inch touchscreen navigation system, the following features give drivers even more options on the SUV:

• Heated Seating: Heated front and rear seating is available to bring comfort to all passengers of the Range Rover Sport.

• Meridian Sound System: A 19-speaker Meridian sound system with subwoofer ensures your driving soundtrack sounds fit for even the most critical music lover.

• Heads-up Display (HUD): This available display projects important vehicle information onto the windshield just below the line of sight so you can know vehicle specs with just a glance.

In addition to the improved traction of standard four-wheel drive and expected safety technology like antilock brakes, three-point seat belts, and airbags, this Land Rover offers a variety of advanced safety features for added peace of mind:

• Rearview Camera: The standard rearview camera engages when you shift into reverse to give a clear view of what’s behind the SUV before backing up. A surround-view camera system is available for upgrade as well.

• Parking Sensors: Standard front and rear parking sensors allow you to perpendicular and parallel park with confidence; 360-degree parking sensors are available with the Driver Assistance package.

• Emergency Braking: The available adaptive cruise control system monitors the speeds of other vehicles to keep pace while cruising, and if it senses a possible collision, it can apply the brakes automatically to slow or stop the vehicle.
