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.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Handles very well for its size
Impressively comfortable too
Loads of infotainment tech

Cons
Muted engine sounds
Auto gearbox isn't the best
Lots of expensive optional extras

By:

Audi has made no changes to the RS Q8 for 2021.

Pros
Mega-powerful V-8 engine,
nimble chassis,
styling is more restrained than the mechanically similar Lambo Urus.

Cons
Slower and more expensive than the RS6 Avant,
brake feel isn't particularly confidence inspiring,
not quite as poised as a Porsche.

By: 
caranddriver.com

The RS Q8 is unchanged for 2021.

Pros
Turbo V8 delivers devastating straight-line performance
Nimble, lively handling puts most sports cars to shame
Comfortable, well-trimmed interior

Cons
Infotainment system can be distracting to use
Limited interior storage
Less practical than the related Q7
