The supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 engine under the hood is what separates Supercharged and SVR models from more run-of-the-mill Range Rovers. It's a beast-but still not the fastest of its competitors.

What’s New for 2018?

While the standard Range Rover Sport Supercharged gets a slight boost to 518 horsepower, the tuned-up SVR variant gets even more tuned up with a 25-hp increase, to 575. We haven't yet tested the latest SVR with its significantly boosted horsepower, but we expect the standard Range Rover Sport Supercharged to deliver performance in line with last year's model.
