The 2008 Range Rover Sport with its wide and muscular design makes its performance-minded ambitions perfectly clear. The Range Rover Sport is the SUV engineered for those who take their driving seriously. The combination of strong V8 power, a short wheelbase, and a low, wide stance yields exemplary agility and tenacious road holding.
Power and Performance
Power and torque are derived from two impressive power plants. A 4.4-liter, 300 hp, naturally aspirated V8 comes standard and features extraordinary levels of performance. A 4.2-liter, 390 hp, supercharged V8 is extremely responsive and provides a broad spread of power, acceleration, and greater low-end torque for more progressive power on demand.
Body and Styling
With its wide, muscular design articulated by strong, flared shoulders, the Range Rover Sport exudes both power and presence. The aerodynamic shape is enhanced by a raked roof, sculpted wheel arches, lower door finishers, and a distinctive tailgate-mounted rear spoiler, giving it a dramatic sense of motion, even when standing still. Unmistakable Range Rover styling cues can be seen throughout, including the floating roof and clamshell hood.
Inviting and comfortable, Range Rover Sport’s impeccable interior is a delight for drivers and passengers alike. Luxurious premium leather surfaces can be found on the ergonomically designed seats, steering wheel, and gearshift, while available wood accents and metal appointments are used throughout the cabin.
Safety Features
The Range Rover Sport has a long list of safety features, including an Active Roll Mitigation (ARM) system, all-terrain ABS, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Cornering Brake Control (CBC), Emergency Brake Assist (EBA), Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), advanced air bag system that surrounds passengers with six air bags, LATCH system, childproof window locks, and much more.
