British automaker Land Rover has officially unveiled its 2023 Range Rover Sport, which arrives on the heels of the release of its newest flagship 2023 model. As expected with the "Sport" title, the new vehicle boasts a sleeker and more minimalist look than the original model and introduces a variety of performance-focused upgrades.
In terms of power, the 2023 Range Rover Sport can be set up with four different powertrain options. These include a hybrid 3.0L turbocharged inline-six, which delivers 355 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, a "dynamic" version that produces 395 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque, and a plug-in hybrid model with the same engine. The latter of the three is the most powerful option, offering drivers a whooping 434 hp and 619 lb-ft of torque.
