2014 Range Rover Sport Confirmed for 2013 New York Auto Show Debut
Land Rover has confirmed that the all-new Range Rover Sport will make its official debut at the upcoming 2013 New York Auto Show.
To celebrate the occasion, the British automaker and its new Range Rover Sport will make its global premiere with a live drive through Manhattan on March 26 before the show kicks off. Land Rover brags that the new Range Rover Sport will be the brand’s “fastest, most responsive and most agile vehicle to date.”
And if the new Range Rover model gives any indication, look for an all-aluminum chassis that should help cut the SUVs weight by around 700 lbs, while powertrain updates will likely include an all-new 3.0-liter supercharged V6.

New York is the Range Rover Sport’s biggest market; more Sports are sold in the state than any other metropolitan area in the world. It is also North America’s best-selling Land Rover model. Of course, the unveiling will be broadcasted live to a global audience on a new website.
“The all-new Range Rover Sport takes the model to another level,” said John Edwards, Land Rover Global Brand Director. “It is Land Rover’s most dynamic vehicle yet and showcases the best of British design, engineering and technological innovation.”
