If you’re a fan of SUVs like the Range Rover Sport and the BMW X7, chances are you love to hear the engine roar when you hit the open road. These models are built to take to the road with strength and finesse, but you’ll find they’re not the same when you peek under their respective hoods.
These two luxury models come packed with power, but the Range Rover Sport comes out on top in this realm—especially at the base level. Coming standard is a P360 MHEV engine that dominates in off-road conditions. The inclusion of a dynamic drivetrain allows you to head into rugged terrain.
The BMW X7, on the other hand, is not designed for off-road adventuring like the Range Rover Sport. If you’re looking to take things off the beaten path, the Range Rover Sport is the SUV for you.
With incredible power like this, it stands to reason that the Range Rover Sport and the BMW X7 can carry heavy loads. The Range Rover Sport has another advantage here since it can tow up to 7,716 pounds when properly equipped.
You may need to lighten your load a bit in the BMW since the X7 can only tow a maximum of 7,500 pounds.
With so much thrill packed into these SUVs, you’ll want to spend more and more time on the open road. That’s why it’s important to ensure your next ride is equipped with all the engaging and comfortable features you desire. Let’s see what the Range Rover Sport and the X7 have in store for you.
The Range Rover Sport and the BMW X7 are the pinnacle of luxury with welcoming and plush interiors. Both SUVs offer spacious seats and multi-zone climate control to ensure everyone on board has the interior comfort they desire.
Both models provide heated front seats to warm you on those chilly mornings and late nights or ease your muscles after a long day at work. Only the Range Rover Sport, however, provides standard ventilated front seats that will help you cool down on warmer days.
When it comes to technology and connectivity, the Range Rover Sport and the BMW X7 are sure to delight. They each come with standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration which allows you to easily pair your compatible device to your SUV and indulge in a curated listening experience.
In the Range Rover Sport, this amenity is wireless, so you can connect more quickly and without the clutter of cords. You can also pair this with the available Meridianâ„¢ branded premium audio system for high-quality audio. Meanwhile, the X7 requires you to pack a cord to connect your smartphone.
While luxury and performance are important features in your next high-end car, it all comes down to one thing: Can your vehicle help keep you and your passengers safe? The Range Rover Sport and the BMW X7 each have some exciting available protection features to make your ride even more enjoyable.
With both the Range Rover Sport and the X7, you’ll find plenty of intuitive safety features designed to help you focus on the road and lessen the chances of a collision. Some of them include:
- Emergency Braking
- Lane Keep Assist
- 3D Surround Camera
- Adaptive Cruise Control with Steering Assist
These systems are designed to increase security and can even bring your SUV to a complete stop in certain situations.
The Range Rover Sport can provide a bit more when it comes to thrilling weekend getaways. This ride is available with Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control to automate driving when the road gets bumpy.
The X7 is not as adventure-ready and doesn’t offer a similar feature, so you may prefer the types of escapes you can have in the Range Rover Sport.
When you’re navigating the streets of Orlando, Lake Buena Vista, or Kissimmee, FL, you’ll want an SUV that offers everything you desire for the road. Both the Range Rover Sport and the BMW X7 can deliver.
However, based on its standard power and more advanced entertainment and safety technologies—plus its ability to go off-road—the team at Land Rover of Orlando declares the Range Rover Sport to be the winning SUV.
