The upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR is expected to come sporting a fully redesigned appearance. Besides a new design and powertrain, it will also get a fresh underpinning as well. The luxury high-performance SUV will be based on Land Rover's MLA Flex platform, which is claimed to offer 50 per cent more torsional stiffness and 24 per cent structure-borne noise as well. With these updates, the new-generation Range Rover Sport SVR will be more competitive against its rivals such as Porsche Cayenne and BMW X5 M.

Speaking about the new power source for the upcoming range Rover Sport SVR, Land Rover has been already using this same engine in the standard Range Rover. The tata Group-owned car brand has detuned the engine for the standard Range Rover. However, the Sport SVR will come offering much more power and torque output matching its sporty character.
