Range Rover Sport Autobiography D300
Why you can drive with large diameter summer tires
The true value of Land Rover’s pride and joy, the Range Rover Sport, is of course its on-road performance, which is unusual for an SUV. However, it also does not neglect its off-road capabilities. To confirm this, an off-road test drive was held alongside the circuit test drive at Fuji Speedway. The D300, fitted with 23-inch summer tires, took on a muddy forest road with steep ups and downs.
The Range Rover Sport is fitted with large summer tyres that don’t seem suitable for off-road driving, but to drive on an off-road course you need to make full use of all its features. Check out the video to see how the car’s off-road capabilities have been improved by making full use of the latest electronic controls, 3D surround camera, Hill Descent Control, Terrain Response 2 and more.
