If the mood strikes you to take this nearly $100,000 SUV off the beaten path, there are modes for snow, mud, sand, and rock crawling. Auto mode will suffice most of the time, while Dynamic dials in sportier settings for the engine and transmission. True to its off-road heritage, the Range Rover Sport Supercharged features an all-wheel-drive system with six selectable drive modes. Paired exclusively with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, this setup readily and easily blasts past legal speed limits. Making 518 horsepower in "regular" Supercharged models and 575 in the tuned-up SVR trim, the supercharged V-8 that powers these models is smooth, guttural, and eye-wateringly quick. The supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 engine under the hood is what separates Supercharged and SVR models from more run-of-the-mill Land Rover Range Rover Sports. There's still a lot to love with this "base" model, including 21-inch wheels, a power sunroof, a 13-speaker Meridian sound system, 16-way power-adjustable heated front seats, leather upholstery, blind-spot monitoring, and a 360-degree exterior camera system. Go with the Dynamic trim and use that savings to add some cool options-or save it for your fuel bill. The extra horsepower that's offered on the top-of-the-line SVR trim is nice, but in our opinion it's not quite worth the extra expense. More carbon fiber trim can be found inside the Carbon Edition's cabin and under the hood 22-inch gloss-black aluminum wheels are also included. It doesn't offer any additional performance upgrades but instead focuses on a more sinister appearance thanks to exposed carbon fiber on the hood, front bumper, and grille.

Of course, all this goodness comes at a stiff price-one that reaches quickly into the six-figure range. It's got a softer side as well: both the Sport Supercharged and SVR offer luxuriously-outfitted cabins with lots of room for the family. But what makes the Range Rover Sport Supercharged special is how easily it can transition from back-road pounder to off-road superstar. High-performance SUVs aren't a new concept Land Rover has plenty of competition from the likes of BMW, Mercedes-AMG, and Porsche. The 5.0-liter mill under the hood of these beasts is supercharged and churns out a healthy 518-hp in its standard guise and a meaty 575-hp in all-out tune for the SVR. The 2021 Range Rover Sport Supercharged and SVR models are for a different breed of luxury SUV buyer-one who's looking for something with attitude and a thumping V-8 engine.
