8.4 / 10The fifth-generation Range Rover (L460) remains the definitive full-size luxury SUV — a car that no rival can fully replicate in its combination of serene long-distance comfort, genuine off-road capability and understated British elegance. In the UAE context it is a prestige staple, routinely spotted in Jumeirah driveways and desert camps alike. The PHEV P460e makes particular sense here given RTA toll exemptions and lower running costs, while the SV P615 is pure excess done tastefully. The one cloud: Land Rover's historically patchy reliability means servicing discipline and an extended warranty are not optional.
Who it's for — Buyers who want the pinnacle of full-size luxury SUV status without the ostentatious styling of a Rolls-Royce or Bentley — those who value quiet capability over sportiness, and who appreciate that the original still leads.
