2026 Land Rover Range Rover Sport: Brooklyn Buyers Guide

A Coney Island showroom for a car built to leave the pavement

There’s a small irony in shopping a Range Rover Sport a few blocks from the Cyclone: this is a vehicle engineered around Terrain Response 2, Wade Sensing, and a chassis tuned as much for the Scottish Highlands as for Ocean Parkway. Land Rover Brooklyn sits at 809 Neptune Avenue, part of the Kollective Automotive Group alongside sister store Jaguar Brooklyn, and the dealership’s own site claims the largest Land Rover inventory in the tri-state area — a real advantage on a model line with this many engine and trim permutations, since the car you actually want to drive isn’t always the one nearest to your zip code. Showroom hours run Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., closed Sunday.

Brooklyn buyers cross-shop this car against the BMW X5, the Porsche Cayenne, and occasionally against Land Rover’s own Defender — the dealership has published its own comparison of the Defender against those two, worth a look if on-road manners versus off-road purity is still an open question for you. The Range Rover Sport answers that question by refusing to pick a side: it is the more overtly athletic, road-focused member of the Range Rover family, positioned below the standard Range Rover in price and above the Velar in capability.

Five engines, one decision that actually matters

Land Rover doesn’t make the powertrain choice simple, and that’s arguably correct — a New Jersey commuter and a Hamptons weekender want different cars wearing the same badge. The P360 (355 hp, 369 lb-ft) is the standard engine on SE and the one most buyers will actually drive: EPA-rated at 19 city / 26 highway, an 8-speed automatic, and a 0-60 in the high fives. Move to Dynamic SE and the P400 version of the same six climbs to 395 hp; that trim also opens the door to the P460e plug-in hybrid, which pairs a 3.0-liter six with a 160-kW electric motor for roughly 454 combined horsepower and 51 miles of EPA-estimated electric-only range — enough for most Brooklyn-to-Manhattan commutes to run on electrons alone, gas engine held in reserve for the Montauk run.

Above that sits the P530, a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 making 523 hp and 553 lb-ft, standard on Autobiography and optional further down the range. Land Rover’s own figures put the Range Rover Sport’s version of this engine at 4.3 seconds to 60 — genuinely quick for a five-seat SUV north of 5,000 pounds. And then there’s SV: a specially tuned edition of that same V8 architecture pushed to 626 hp and 553 lb-ft (590 with launch control engaged), the most power Land Rover has ever put in a production Range Rover, good for 3.6 seconds to 60 and a claimed 180-mph top speed on the Black and Carbon editions. All five engines drive all four wheels; none of this range comes in anything but AWD.

What buyers say after they take delivery

Land Rover Brooklyn’s public Google reviews mentioning the Range Rover Sport specifically run heavily five-star, and the throughline is the delivery experience as much as the car. One buyer, days after picking up a 2026 Sport: “I absolutely love my new Range Rover Sport, and the incredible deal we were able to put together made the experience even better. Purchasing a vehicle can feel overwhelming, but Simon made it enjoyable from start to finish.” Another, on a certified pre-owned Sport: “I had a great experience purchasing my CPO Range Rover Sport SE. From start to finish, Yesenia was transparent and genuinely focused on helping me find the right vehicle.” A third buyer, on a new 2026 build: “Just purchased a 2026 Range Rover Sport Dynamic and had the pleasure of working with Kimy. She was fantastic throughout the entire process, professional, helpful, and made everything smooth and stress-free.” Sales-consultant first names above are drawn verbatim from public reviews; the dealership’s staff directory page was unavailable to cross-check spellings at verification time, so confirm the specific consultant at the store.

Owning one in Brooklyn

The ownership half of this decision lives on two other pages: the service & repair guide covers the factory maintenance rhythm and what Belt Parkway potholes and winter road salt actually do to a Range Rover Sport’s suspension and brakes, and the pricing & leasing guide works through New York State and New York City taxes, registration, and how the lineup’s five engines change the lease math. Related reading on the dealer’s own site: the 2026 Range Rover Evoque guide and the 2026 Range Rover Velar guide, for shoppers still deciding which Range Rover fits.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a 2026 Range Rover Sport cost?

MSRPs run from $83,700 (SE) to $170,200 (SV Carbon), all excluding Land Rover’s $1,850 destination charge, taxes, title, and dealer fees. The pricing guide breaks down every trim and adds New York’s tax and registration math.

What are the trim levels on the 2026 Range Rover Sport?

Four buyer-facing tiers: SE, Dynamic SE, Autobiography, and the SV performance family, which itself splits into SV, SV Black, and SV Carbon. Land Rover also builds two limited runs for the model year — the Battersea Edition and 20th-anniversary Twenty Edition — that sit outside the standard catalog and aren’t guaranteed dealer stock.

Is the SE the same as the old HSE trim?

Not quite the same badge, but the same role. Land Rover retired the HSE naming for this generation; SE is now the base 2026 trim, sitting where SE and HSE both used to sit in the previous lineup’s hierarchy.

Is the 2026 Range Rover Sport a good car?

For buyers who want genuine luxury-SUV refinement without giving up real off-road engineering — twin-speed transfer cases on some trims, Terrain Response 2, Wade Sensing, Dynamic Air Suspension — it’s one of the few vehicles in its price bracket that can back up the capability claims on its window sticker, not just the styling ones.

Where can I see the full lineup in Brooklyn?

Land Rover Brooklyn’s new-vehicle inventory lists current Range Rover Sport stock by trim and engine; current factory and dealer offers are posted separately and change monthly.

Four trims, one showroom

The guides below go deeper on each trim, but the short version holds: SE for buyers who want the badge and the bones without the options list, Dynamic SE for anyone weighing the plug-in hybrid seriously, Autobiography for V8 power with the full luxury spec sheet, and SV for buyers who’ve already decided 626 horsepower belongs in a vehicle this size. Land Rover Brooklyn keeps the range on the floor a few minutes from the Belt Parkway.
