New Range Rover Sport SVR

The new RR sport SVR has been announced

http://newsroom.jaguarlandrover.com/...rt_svr_en-int/

http://www.autoblog.com/2014/08/10/2...-svr-official/

0-60mph in 4.5 seconds
ZF 8HP70 8-speed automatic transmission
Nürburgring Nordschleife racetrack in 8 minutes 14 seconds
electronically limited top speed of 162mph
economy 22.1mpg
550 hp

They are finally catching up to the X5M. I'm eager to see who's fastest. Surely the F85 will be faster.
Bring the videos!

We had a 2010 X5M and now have a 2014 RR sport V8 supercharged. Driving both back to back has me convinced the RR was just as fast as the X5M. Handling isn't great but is close when you put the RR in dynamic mode. I can't imagine how the SVR will be. This motor has gobs of torque and the sound it makes is soooo evil!

the RR SC is not even remotely as fast. My friend just got one and I WALKED him for a dig like 3-4 car lengths. It might feel like they are the same but they aren't. Handling? I hope your kidding because a RR would tip over on a track... the M would eat it alive on a track. They don't handle similarly at all, I'm surprised you feel that way but driving my friends it felt like a typical RR. Big, comfy, and luxury oriented

Did you drive a 2014 sport V8 supercharged? Did you put it in dynamic mode? And what wheels/tires did it have?

Maybe our X5M was tired. It had 49k miles when we traded it in on my SRT8 Grand Cherokee.

I think my wife's RR feels faster than my SRT8 even though on paper it is not...

Ive heard those jeeps feel slow otherwise i would have one already. It kills me how they went slower with the WK2s.

I think the ML63 is the fastest truck out there. Im pretty sure they have a higher trap speed stock but dont get off the line like the X5M. Rolling I think the AMG would pull.

I agree. The amg would get wild in the turns but that's what they are made to do.
