REPRESENTATIVE PHOTOAjay Gill / PexelsOur verdict
8.1 / 10The Range Rover Sport is the sweet spot in the Range Rover family — more driver-focused than the full-size Range Rover, more luxurious than the Defender, and with genuine off-road ability that its German rivals cannot match. The PHEV Autobiography delivers a 113 km EV range, making it particularly well-suited to UAE urban commuting. Historically fragile electronics and high service costs remain the caveats.
Who it's for — Buyers wanting Range Rover prestige and off-road pedigree in a slightly more manageable footprint, who want the desirability badge without the full-size price.
