Range Rover Sport Coupe
The Range Rover family
will welcome a new member next year when the Sport Coupe hits the market. The
new SUV will be positioned between the Range Rover Evoque and the range-topping
Sport and have a slightly smaller footprint than its bigger brother.
As the its
(tentative) name indicates, it will also offer a more coupe-like design similar
to the Evoque, but will also borrow some styling cues from the Land Rover
Discovery Sport. Underpinning the Sport
Coupe will be the same aluminum architecture as the F-Pace. Jaguar's SUV will
also be its range of diesel and petrol engines.
There will also be a
hybrid, but the most important variant could adopt an all-electric powertrain,
the same as the one pinned to debut in a new SUV from Jaguar dubbed the I-Pace
EV.
Expected to rival the BMW
X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe, a potential SVR-badged derivative could utilize
Range Rover's potent 542 hp 5.0-liter supercharged V8 and promises to
outperform its rivals due to its lighter aluminum construction.
