The $200,000 Performance Paradox | 2025 Range Rover Sport SV Edition Two Review

Range Rover claims the 2025 Sport SV Edition Two is the most dynamic vehicle they’ve ever built. It has 626 hp, a 6D Dynamics hydraulic interlinked suspension, and an astested price north of $200,000 USD. But no amount of carbon fiber or Blue Nebula paint can hide the fact that this is a 5,500 lb SUV trying to act like a supercar. Today, we find out if the engineering actually manages the mass at the limit, or if you’re just paying for the industry's most expensive physics lesson.

The core of this interrogation is the 6D Dynamics system, which replaces traditional anti-roll bars with a hydraulic network that manages pitch and roll simultaneously. We diagnose how this fundamentally changes the tire contact patch and whether the 76 kg weight saving from the carbon fiber wheels and ceramic brakes actually improves steering precision or is just a rounding error on a 2.5 ton tank.

We also dive into the owner intel on the L461 platform, addressing the recurring software stability issues with the Pivi Pro system and the long term complexity of interlinked hydraulic systems. This is a masterclass in mass management, but does it actually turn a Range Rover into a driver’s tool?
