2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport: First Drive |
|
Jan 18, 2010 - 8:37 AM - by Administrator
|
Why do we call them SUVs? That's probably a very good question, since most vehicles that fit the category are more like a pair of traditional golf trousers than sweatpants when it comes to sportiness. One that isn't, is the aptly named Range Rover Sport. Along with a handful of mostly European 4,500 lb plus conveyances, it proves that relatively big and heavy doesn't have to be boring.
For 2010 the Sport has been given a significant update, designed to make it even more fun than before. It all begins on the outside. Compared to little brother LR4, the grille and headlight changes are a little more subtle, but follow the same pattern. Perhaps most obvious are the gimmicky glowing LED lights, though the grille is actually different and perhaps a bit busier than before. The fenders are also new, largely to clear the new 19 and 20-inch rolling stock, but you'd probably never know from looking at them. Out back mild tweaks to the taillights lend a more contemporary look. If there is one thing that impresses about the exterior, it is the attention to detail, fit and finish – it's exemplary.

The North American International Auto Show, hosted each year in Detroit, appears set to return to its former glory for 2010. Many of the automakers absent from last year will be displaying and introducing models, while fears of bankruptcy for the U.S. manufacturers have been realized and have now subsided thanks to generous government aid and the help of foreign partners, the cooperation of the unions and a lot of tough decisions.
Important debuts for the first auto show of 2010 include the Honda CR-Z hybrid sports car, a Dedicated Hybrid Concept from Toyota, the BMW Z4 sDrive35i, the MINI Moke Concept and the 2011 Ford Mustang GT.
