Overview

Summary

A highly sought after and anticipated luxury SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle), the new Range Rover Sport, officially launched in Malaysia.

Jaguar Land Rover Malaysia (JLRM) is offering it in the Dynamic SE (Specification Equipment) trimline with a Standard Wheelbase (SWB).

It comes with a myriad of personalisation options, ranging from technologies and equipment, interior trim materials and finishes, and exterior colour schemes.

Fully-imported (CBU), the price starts from MYR 888,688 (duty-free), and goes up to MYR 1,698,000 (duty-paid), excluding on-road costs and options.

Each purchase comes with the Land Rover Care programme, consisting of a five-year/150,000 KM warranty, five-year free service and three-year roadside assistance.

Weighing in at 3,220 KG, the new Range Rover Sport stands at 4,946 MM long, 2,209 MM wide, 1,820 MM tall, and with a wheelbase spanning 2,997 MM.

Front View

Refined with modern details, its familiar outlook now exudes a more luxuriously minimal and seamlessly solid silhouette, compared to its predecessor.

Elegantly sporty, the front-end sees a seamlessly-designed bonnet and bumper, made up of smooth edges and creases.

The top half is commanded by the ‘Range Rover’ script and a new rectangular grille, while the lower half by a stretched-out rectangular intake.

Flanking the latter is a set of horizontally-fitted P-shaped intakes. All fitments are finished in black.

Rear View

An elegant profile, the rear-end exudes a design harmonious with the front, contoured by rounded angles and clean surfaces.

It blends body-coloured panels with a full-flat roofline. The latter sees a shark fin antenna, paired to a large and sporty roof-edge spoiler. 

Featured in the middle of the tailgate is the ‘Range Rover’ script, bordered by a bar stretching across connecting the tail lamps.

Accentuating the layout is a new sleek-looking bumper, integrated with a centre skid plate and corner twin tailpipes.

Headlamps

Adhering to the scheme, they are framed sharply sleek and are linked by the grille in a one-piece design.

Fitted are Pixel LED units with signature LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL), Predictive Adaptive Front Lighting, and Image Projection.
