Listen to this article It’s been a bit more than a month since Land Rover unveiled the Range Rover Sport. The $84,000 luxury SUV is all-new for the 2023 model year as it migrates into its third generation. The updated Sport means we will also get an updated SVR and a new batch of spy shots caught the performance model testing near the Nurburgring race track. The high-performance SUV continues to conceal its design under camouflage and cladding, but the coverings can’t hide the SVR’s performance bits. The model’s larger brakes and quad exhaust pipes sticking out the back reveal its true nature, but the SVR should get other unique styling touches like unique wheels, tweaked bumpers, and more.
