Behold the 2025 Range Rover Sport autobiography with PHEV, a luxurious beast priced at a staggering $118,000 base, soaring to $128,000 when fully optioned. It stands as the second-highest trim in the lineup, taking on the Porsche Cayenne in a battle of opulence and power. This autobiography offers a choice between an inline 6 engine or a BMW V8, with an even more premium SV trim costing nearly $180,000, boasting the x5m competition drivetrain. However, despite its grandeur, these Range Rovers face a harsh reality - steep depreciation rates, shedding over 40% of their value in the first three years and over 50% in five years.

Interior comfort reigns supreme in the autobiography, pampering passengers with lavish features while sacrificing some cargo space. The front and rear seats offer unparalleled comfort, with the finest leather exuding luxury. Yet, a disappointing contrast emerges in the switchgear department, where the piano black finish feels disappointingly cheap for a vehicle of this caliber. However, the headliner's suede touch and the car's hushed noise floor provide a sense of tranquility within the cabin. On the tech front, the infotainment system embraces minimalism by ditching physical controls, while the 800W Meridian Audio System elevates the auditory experience.

Beneath its luxurious facade lies the robust MLA Flex architecture, housing a plethora of electromechanical systems and modules that enhance safety and performance. Equipped with adaptive dampers, rear steer, torque vectoring, and a rear differential, this Range Rover is primed for both on-road elegance and off-road prowess. The autobiography's driving character leans more towards a land yacht than a sports sedan, offering a surprisingly nimble feel despite its boat-like nature. The ingenium I6 with PHEV setup delivers a potent yet refined performance, rivaling that of a V8 engine. In essence, the autobiography embodies a blend of luxury, power, and off-road capability, albeit with a few quirks that may irk the discerning driver.
