Range Rover lineup guide
They share a name, much of their engineering and, on the standard-wheelbase Range Rover, the same 118-inch wheelbase. But the full-size Range Rover and the Range Rover Sport are built for different buyers, and $29,600 separates their starting prices.
The short answer
Choose the Range Rover Sport if you need five seats and want a more driver-focused luxury SUV. It starts at $83,700, is about 5 inches shorter than a standard Range Rover, and comes with air suspension and Terrain Response 2 as standard. Choose the full-size Range Rover if you want the most spacious, most refined vehicle Land Rover makes, need a third row (long wheelbase only), or want the fully electric version. It starts at $113,300 for the standard wheelbase and $120,700 for the seven-seat long wheelbase.

Prices, powertrains, standard equipment and transfer boxes from rangerover.com, checked October 2026. The Sport's plug-in range is an EPA estimate. The Range Rover Electric's range is Land Rover's own estimate. Towing is from published retailer specifications. Dimensions and cargo from published specifications. They vary by configuration, so confirm on the specific vehicle.
The detail most people miss: the standard-wheelbase Range Rover and the Range Rover Sport share the same 118-inch wheelbase. The Range Rover's extra length goes into its body, not its footprint between the wheels. It's also taller and boxier, which is where the extra cargo space and the more upright, lounge-like cabin come from. The Sport is lower and sleeker, and feels more like a driver's car on a winding road.

Starting MSRPs from rangerover.com, before destination. The Range Rover Sport also offers SV Black ($161,600) and SV Carbon ($170,200). The Range Rover also offers SV Black ($238,900), and long-wheelbase versions of most trims.
The ladders overlap more than the entry prices suggest. A Range Rover Sport Autobiography ($120,900) costs about the same as a long-wheelbase Range Rover SE ($120,700). So for around $120,000 the real question is whether you want the Sport's top-level equipment or the Range Rover's bigger body and third row.
Every powertrain offered on each model in the US, from rangerover.com.
Both models offer a six-cylinder, a plug-in hybrid and a V8, so the real powertrain difference is at the extremes. The Sport's SV is the quickest of the two families. The full-size Range Rover is the only one offered as a fully electric vehicle, with up to 333 miles of range (Land Rover estimate) from a 118.5 kWh battery. For a household that drives mostly local miles around Avon, Farmington or Glastonbury and charges at home, either plug-in hybrid can cover most days on electricity.
Third row
The seven-seat Range Rover adds 7.8 inches of wheelbase over the standard model (125.9 in against 118.0). Published specifications put third-row legroom at about 35.8 inches, which is usable for adults on shorter trips, not only for children. If you need seven seats on a smaller budget, the Defender 110 and 130 are the other Land Rover options.
Winter
Both have all-wheel drive, air suspension and Terrain Response with a snow-and-ice mode, so either handles a winter in Simsbury or Glastonbury well on proper winter tires. The full-size Range Rover's all-wheel steering also helps it turn in tight, snow-banked driveways and parking lots. See how both compare with rivals in our Connecticut winter SUV guide.
