If you are going to test the 2013 Range Rover Sport, test it! Let us not forget where the bar has been set!<\/p>\n
I love the old Land Rovers, and who can forget the icon of Overlanding, the Defender 110? The Camel\u00a0Trophy\u00a0Stamped Land Rover into history with a steel die. I recently went to the 2013 Auto show in San Francisco, and bolted straight to the Toyota display. Guess what? No Land Cruiser. I Half-jogged to the Land Rover display and found grocery-getters and wife-transports. Aaaaaah! So this article\u00a0caught\u00a0my attention. Is it possible that the “SUV”s I saw at the show with sparkling 22″ rims are actually trail – worthy?! I clicked…<\/p>\n
Would this ride make it to the top of Slick-Rock trail? Would it\u00a0crawl\u00a0over the pits and valleys of the Rubico Trail? After watching the review, I have no idea. I want to see someone actually test this thing! I saw some impressive features.<\/p>\n
\tTerrain Management
\n\tAir\u00a0Suspension
\n\t5.0 V8 w\/ 375HP
\n\tAuto Ride Height<\/p>\n
What I can declare with certainty is that this ride will crawl over rocks literally 6” high! WOW! The rig was never Off-Road (for the\u00a0purpose\u00a0of\u00a0clarity, I do not\u00a0consider\u00a0dirt roads “off-road”. It has “road” in the name).<\/p>\n
This review will make owners who commute from\u00a0suburbia\u00a0to silicon valley feel tough, but it does not prove the capability of the vehicle. Joe-suit-and-tie (hey, I wear one too at times), may even double eyebrow twitch at you as the Rover lifts itself 1.5″ to “Extreme Off Road” mode. YES!<\/p>\n
