2016 Ranger Rover Sport SVR

- Christian Hazel

Let’s face it: If you spend more than 100 grand on a hot, 550hp vehicle that’s an SUV, you’re buying an SUV for a reason. What do you do with an SUV? You haul lots of people and lots of junk. So for this test installment, that’s just what we focused on: how the “utility” part of “SUV” works.

For starters, our SVR test model is equipped with Land Rover’s collapsible cargo carrier as part of the $537 RR Sport protection package. It’s a nice, collapsible, soft-sided tray that you can keep smalls in without them rolling all around the cargo area, and it lifts out or folds flat quickly and easily. The cargo area is fairly generous, to the detriment of the rear-passenger legroom.
