  • Excellent balance of off-road ability and luxury

  • Later in the year, a new Range Rover debuts, launching the fifth Range Rover generation for 2022

By offering a unique mix of impressive all-terrain capability with traditional British luxury, Range Rovers have long defined what a luxury SUV should be. And with an array of available paint colors, engine options and other premium features, the Range Rover can be tailored to suit the taste of the most discerning buyers.

The existing 2022 Range Rover (the one that is part of the fourth-generation model that debuted in 2013) doesn't see too many changes, though the range of available engines has decreased as both the plug-in hybrid and diesel engine options are no longer offered. There's also a new trim level, known as the SVAutobiography Dynamic Black Edition. As you might expect, it's an essentially all black (inside and out) version of the standard SVAutobiography Dynamic.

However, an all-new Range Rover is on the horizon, and is set to debut later in the model year. Though it has a similar look inside and out, the new Range Rover is fully redesigned. It rides on a new platform and boasts an improved infotainment system, a new V8 engine, and — for the first time in this luxe SUV — a third row of seating. Look for more information in the coming months.

For now, the current Range Rover can certainly find its way up a slippery slope in the countryside, but it's having a much harder time finding traction against deeply impressive competition from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Even the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator offer features and capabilities that the Range Rover can't match, and for less money too. Read our Expert Rating below to help you decide if the Range Rover is the best choice for your next luxury SUV.

Which Range Rover does MatoCar recommend?

We think the Autobiography trim represents the most authentic Range Rover experience. It ensures you get the supercharged V8, an impeccably turned-out interior and Range Rover's legendary off-road capability. Added to this impressive mix is a 29-speaker audio system, 22-way power-adjustable and massaging front seats, and a nearly endless array of options for personalization. If you don't need a new SUV right now, however, the upcoming Range Rover redesign looks to be worth the wait.

The current Land Rover Range Rover is available in a head-spinning number of configurations but comes in six main trim levels: Base, Westminster, Autobiography, SVAutobiography Dynamic, SVAutobiography Dynamic Black Edition and SVAutobiography. The Base and SVAutobiography Dynamic and SV Autobiography Dynamic Black Edition trims come with the standard wheelbase, but the Westminster and Autobiography are also available in a long-wheelbase configuration. The SVAutobiography is long wheelbase only. Every Range Rover comes equipped with all-wheel drive.

Four powertrains are available, all of them mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission:

  • P360: turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder (355 horsepower, 365 lb-ft)
  • P400: turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder (395 hp, 406 lb-ft)
  • P525: supercharged 5.0-liter V8 (518 hp, 461 lb-ft)
  • SVO: supercharged 5.0-liter V8 (557 hp, 516 lb-ft)

All Range Rovers come extremely well equipped and offer a near endless array of customization options. Highlights include:

Base Starts off with:

  • P360 six-cylinder engine
  • 19-inch wheels

  • 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility
  • Power-adjustable, heated front seats
  • 13-speaker audio system
  • Three-zone climate control
  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
  • Parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)

Westminster Adds more engine options and extra luxury with::

Autobiography Adds more capability and luxury with:

  • P525 engine
  • Tow hitch
  • Terrain Response 2 (Range Rover's more advanced off-road driver assist)
  • Locking rear differential (used in off-road situations to increase traction)

  • Black-painted roof
  • Unique exterior trim
  • Rear seats with more adjustability
  • Upgraded leather upholstery
  • Aluminum and carbon-fiber interior trim

SVAutobiography Dynamic Black Edition Adds blacked-out styling elements for a sinister look, with:

  • Black exterior paint
  • 22-inch gloss black wheels
  • Black-painted brake calipers
  • Black leather with red stitching
  • Gloss black interior trim
  • Unique interior badging

SVAutobiography Maxes out luxury with:
