2026 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT D250 MHEV S AUTO 4WD — UK SPECIFICATION

ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN

The D250 is Land Rover's 3.0-litre Ingenium diesel: an in-line six with four valves per cylinder, 2,997 cc, bore and stroke of 83.0 x 92.31 mm and a 15.5:1 compression ratio, turbocharged and paired with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system that recovers energy under deceleration and redeploys it to assist the engine. Land Rover's UK Technical Specification 2026 quotes 249 PS (183 kW) at 4,000 rpm and 600 Nm from 1,250 to 2,500 rpm. Drive reaches all four wheels through an automatic transmission with steering-wheel gearshift paddles and a single-speed transfer box — this derivative is high range only, with an open rear differential and Torque Vectoring by Braking rather than an electronically controlled locking differential. Exhaust aftertreatment is by selective catalytic reduction with filter (SCRF) and the car is homologated to Euro 6. UK WLTP figures for the derivative are 39.8-36.5 mpg combined (7.1-7.7 l/100 km) and 186-203 g/km combined CO2; Land Rover publishes both as ranges across wheel and specification combinations, so no single CO2 figure exists for this build and none has been recorded. The seller's own advert quotes 39.5 mpg for this car. Performance to the same UK sheet is 0-60 mph in 7.3 seconds (0-100 km/h in 7.7 seconds) with Dynamic Launch, and a maximum speed of 128 mph (206 km/h). Steering is on the right, as built for the UK market.

CHASSIS, STEERING AND BRAKES

The car carries Dynamic Air Suspension with Adaptive Dynamics — continuously variable damping working with air springs — and electronic power assisted steering. Braking is by ventilated discs on both axles, 380 mm at the front and 355 mm at the rear per the UK 2026 sheet, with an electric park brake integrated into the rear caliper. The turning circle is 12.53 m kerb-to-kerb on the two-wheel-steering setup fitted here; four-wheel steering, which would reduce it to 10.95 m, is not part of this build. Electronic chassis control covers anti-lock braking, electronic brake-force distribution, emergency brake assist, cornering brake control, dynamic stability control, electronic traction control, roll stability control, hill launch assist, low traction launch and hill descent control.

EXTERIOR

Santorini Black metallic, as stated by the seller, over a body-coloured roof with a fixed panoramic glass panel. The build adds the Black Exterior Pack and privacy glass to the standard car, and runs 20-inch alloy wheels in the 7020 style with unpainted brake calipers and locking wheel nuts. Lighting is LED front and rear with signature daytime running lights, rear animated directional indicators, side repeaters in the mirrors, automatic headlights, automatic headlight levelling, auto high beam assist and headlight powerwash.

Front and rear recovery eyes are fitted. The car is specified without exterior badging.

INTERIOR AND SEATING

Five seats trimmed in black full leather with an Ebony headlining, a fine brushed aluminium finisher and illuminated aluminium treadplates carrying Range Rover script. The front seats are 12-way electric with heating and memory and two-way manual headrests; the rear seats power-recline. The steering wheel is full leather, heated and multi-function. Climate control is two-zone with an air quality sensor, and the cabin adds an auto-dimming interior mirror, cabin lighting, illuminated vanity mirrors, carpet mats, a centre console with armrest, a rear centre armrest, and front and rear cupholders and grab handles. Access and loading are eased by automatic access height, a powered single-piece tailgate, easy boot loading, a loadspace light, scuff plate, tie-downs and a load-space hook, with a PVC seat backboard. Rain-sensing wipers with a winter park position and configurable single-point entry complete the specification.

Cruise control is the standard system with speed limiter — adaptive cruise control is not part of this build and should not be assumed. Restraint and security equipment covers front airbags with a passenger seat occupant detector, front side airbags, rear ISOFIX, power-operated child locks, keyless entry, an intrusion sensor and configurable auto lock. A tyre repair system is supplied in place of a spare wheel. The car is classified Euro 6.

Maximum roof load is 100 kg, available because this car has the fixed panoramic roof. The build includes electrical towing preparation but no tow bar is fitted.
