It looks like when the new Range Rover Sport is released, we can expect for it to be even speedier!

Faster Range Rover Sport In The Works: Report

Range Rover’s best selling  models in the U.S. market are its Sport variants, and it’s no secret that a new Range Rover Sport is under development. Like the all-new Range Rover, the Sport will benefit from the extensive use of aluminum in its construction, shaving serious weight from all production versions.

While a new Range Rover Sport is a given, Land Rover’s chief of chassis systems, David Waide, seemed to hint at an even more aggressive version of the Range Rover Sport, using family brand Jaguar as an example.

Car Advice quotes Waide as saying, “It’s one of the areas which the business can expand. You’ve seen this with Jaguar and its XKR-S edition. They’ve done very well with the R-S model … so there’s the ability to do those sorts of things with Land Rover product.”

Expect a high-end Range Rover Sport variant to deliver much the same experience. Assuming a hotter version of the Range Rover Sport really is in the works, it would round out the product line nicely. A rumored sport version of the Evoque would provide a gateway performance SUV, with the hotter Range Rover Sport topping the range.
