Land Rover reveals the new Range Rover Sport HSE 'Red' at the New York Motor Show – Range Rover Sport’s biggest metropolitan market. In addition the Range Rover Sport HSE 'Luxury' is also announced.

Powerful, elegant and with a striking presence, the
Range Rover Sport already delivers outstanding levels of excitement and unabashed style. The new Red and Luxury models go one step further with a combination of exterior treatments and interior detailing which take the Range Rover Sport's winning mix of style and presence to the next level.

Based on the HSE, the Range Rover Sport HSE Red comes in firenze red, orkney grey, fuji white and santorini black. The Santorini Black mesh grille is highlighted by a Noble bezel and black surround. Bonnet badges and tailgate finisher are in Atlas Silver and the rear 'Sport' badge is finished in salsa red. Striking fender vents provide a focus for the Red edition scheme with a bright red logo bar set against a santorini black grille and finished by an atlas silver surround. Unique, 20-inch alloy wheels add the finishing touch to a unique look.

The interior is finished in the HSE Ebony colourway and there’s a choice of four dedicated seat trim styles. Seat inserts can be chosen in Pimento Red, Cirrus, Lunar Grey or Ebony with contrasting stitching. Seats have the Sport logo embossed on the headrest and this is picked up on the floor mats where the logo is embroidered in red to match the striking exterior badge colours.

The Range Rover Sport HSE Red is driven by the powerful and efficient 255 hp 3.0 SDV6 diesel engine combined with the ultra-refined and responsive 8-speed automatic gearbox. Chassis, suspension and brakes remain amongst the most advanced in the world endowing the Range Rover Sport with uncompromised ability both on and off-road. A wide range of e_Terrain features ensure peerless performance is delivered in the most efficient way possible.

The Range Rover Sport HSE Luxury benefits from a host of optional equipment to create a sumptuous interior providing supreme levels of comfort and convenience.
