TEASED: New Range Rover Sport's Interior Looks Plush

After nearly a decade in production, the second-generationRange Rover Sportis still a massively capable luxury SUV. With true off-roading prowess, the more dynamic sibling in the lineup is just as at home on a muddy field as it is cruising down Rodeo Drive. But with the introduction of thenew L460 halo model, a new Sport is set to follow.

Set to be revealed on May 10, 2022, the third generation is ready to take the fight to the BMW X5 and Porsche Cayenne. While we've seencountless spy shotsof the upcoming Sport (and thehigh-performance SVR), Land Rover recently released itsfirst teaser imageof the newcomer. Unfortunately, not much can be seen, although the front end does sport sleeker headlamps than before and a two-tone paint job. Now, it's the turn of the interior.

Keen to build some hype around the upcoming debut, Land Rover has kept the interior teaser equally as obscure as the last one. We can, however, catch a glimpse of the new gear lever, first employed by the full-size Range Rover. Sited just above the leather and chrome-finished item are the rotary climate controls. Positioned atop the touchscreen, this provides occupants with some tactical control.

Elsewhere, the teaser also previews the satellite controls on the new steering wheel. Again, it looks like the Sport will borrow the classy three-spoke tiller from its bigger brother, which features chunkier, squared-off controls. Land Rover describes the new Sport's interior as dynamic, noting it is defined by its "architectural lightness and precise detailing."

它将很难改善当前的模型interior, though. Old it may be, but few SUVs in this class offer such an imperious driving position.
