NEW 626bhp Range Rover Sport SV Gets BMW M5 Power

Рет қаралды 903,435

Күн бұрын

SV replaces SVR. With the loss of a letter comes a gain in image. This isn’t the brash, boisterous car it once was. The hottest Range Rover Sport has been civilised. But don’t for one second think that it’s boring. The headline is still its whacking great V8, only this one’s been pilfered from the latest M5. Yep, this Range Rover is now packing BMW twin-turbo V8 power - 626bhp and 590lb-ft of it - allowing the 0-62mph time to fall by almost a second to 3.8s.
But that’s not all. Technology has been liberally applied here - chief among which is JLR’s ‘6D Dynamics’: cross-linked hydraulic dampers that pump fluid around at huge pressure to resist not just roll, but compression under pitch and dive. No other fast SUV has this level of chassis tech.
So, what else is there to know? And how does it all work? Join TG’s Ollie Marriage on a rather wet, and drifty journey into the unknown.

The mechanism of action for an EV is fundamentally different from an ICE vehicle, nothing to do with cylinders. To your point EV vs EV or ICE vs ICE you can compare pure numbers. 500hp in an EV does not equate to 500hp in an ICE V especially when it comes to 0-60 since the Torque for EVs works differently@@Gladiator1972

1000 hp Range Rover is the stupidest idea I've ever heard - you need a car that handles well enough for 1000 hp. I test drove a V8 autobiography with 550 hp I think, and that thing handled horribly on the roads on anything that wasn't a straight line, it just had too much power when you push it. The sport will peak at 700 hp on the road I think. The 510e sport is already rapid for a car of that size

There is another large 4wd out there with hydraulic/cross linked dampers and it’s been in production since Dec 2012. The Nissan Y62 Patrol has Hydraulic Body Motion Control (HBMC) which is a passive suspension design that doesn’t require antiroll bars or electronics to operate. Works bloody well! The only difference with the Nissan system is it doesn’t adjust the pressure while driving. It’s set at factory and that’s it. But they aren’t exactly a sports car for the corners.

Range Rover are missing a trick. The natural habitat for any Range Rover is Chelsea High Street so they should release a 2WD, 4cyl hybrid with an external speaker to play the old supercharged V8 soundtrack and the same appearance package, wheels and tires. And still charge 175K for it. Most owners wouldn’t notice the lack of 3.8 sec 0-60 or anti-dive/squat hydraulic dampers, just that it looks like 175k.
