The new rear end design of this P400 model shows off what the designers called an air of "tautness". And of these models, one brand in particular stands out as the purveyor of a certain cache, dating back to 1948. In fact, it's largely because these models are meeting or exceeding a performance benchmark set by the likes of sport sedans and hot hatchbacks. Additional cargo space, adequate legroom, and generally higher safety ratings all add to the affability of the popular shape, but the rise of the performance SUV is owed to more than market consensus. If the plan all along was to pick up the kids, toss their backpacks and a few snacks in the trunk, and hit the long, straight, and boring highway, how have we strayed so far from it?Ĭynics and purists will tell you American consumers have simply become accustomed to the amenities provided by an SUV. From the 290-mph red-light racer Jeep Trackhawk to the corner-carving Porsche Macan GTS, the performance and capability of these vehicles are astounding given they were, frankly, never intended for extreme g-forces or drag racing McLarens.
Let's face it: Performance SUVs and crossovers have gotten out of hand. Ranging from $83,000 all the way to $122,850, our favorite is the middle-range P400 model, striking a balance between an electrified torque shove and playful handling characteristics.Adjustable air suspension and a host of complex off-road systems including an active e-diff and off-road cruise control make the model range more sprightly as compared to the traditional model.The 2023 Range Rover Sport take on a new look and two new powertrains-a 4.4-liter turbocharged V8 and a 3.0-liter mild hybrid inline-six.
