The 2027 Range Rover Sport is offered with five powertrain configurations spanning 355 hp to 626 hp across six-cylinder and V8 options. The lineup includes mild hybrid gasoline variants and plug-in hybrid models with up to 51 miles of electric range. This page covers every powertrain, how each one works, which models carry it, and what it means for daily ownership.
The 2027 Range Rover Sport gives clients a range of choices across output levels, fuel strategies, and driving character. The lineup is organized around two engine families: a 3.0-liter inline-6 and a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8. Within those families, Range Rover Sport offers mild hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants, providing choices from efficiency-focused daily driving to high-performance driving.
Every powertrain is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive. That foundation is consistent across the lineup. What changes is the output, the torque delivery, and the degree of electrification.

Each powertrain delivers a distinct ownership experience, with differences in output, electrification, and performance.
The inline-6 mild hybrid uses a belt-integrated starter-generator to recover energy under braking and deceleration. That energy supplements the engine at low speeds and under acceleration, reducing load on the combustion cycle. The result is smoother power delivery without the infrastructure requirement of plug-in charging. The SE produces 355 hp and reaches 60 mph in 5.7 seconds. The Dynamic SE (P400) lifts output to 395 hp and reaches 60 mph in 5.2 seconds.
The plug-in hybrid adds a 31.8 kWh battery pack and an electric motor to the inline-6 architecture. In the Dynamic SE PHEV configuration, combined output reaches 454 hp. In the Battersea Edition, the same platform produces 543 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Electric range reaches up to 51 miles. A 7 kW AC charger replenishes the battery from 0 to 100 percent in approximately 5 hours. A 50 kW rapid charger reaches 80 percent in approximately 40 minutes. Clients who can charge at home or at the office may be able to complete routine trips using electric power before drawing on the full hybrid output for longer journeys.
The V8 produces 523 hp in Autobiography and Dynamic SE V8 specification, reaches 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, and tows up to 7,716 lbs. In SV, SV Black, and SV Carbon specification, output rises to 626 hp with a 0-60 time of 3.7 seconds. The SV variants also receive 6D Dynamics, a suspension system that adds active lateral fluid damping to manage body motion through corners. The V8 SV models also benefit from the SV Performance Braking System and Edge Illuminated Paddle Shifters for a more driver-focused character.
The powertrain assigned to each model defines its character as much as its exterior or interior specification.
SE carries the P360 inline-6 mild hybrid. It is the entry point into the Range Rover Sport lineup and provides a 0-60 time of 5.7 seconds with a single-speed transfer box optimized for road use.
Dynamic SE is available with three powertrains: the P400 inline-6 mild hybrid, the P460e inline-6 plug-in hybrid, and the P530 V8. Clients selecting the Dynamic SE can choose the powertrain that fits their priorities without moving to another model. The Dynamic SE also gains a twin-speed transfer box on V8 and PHEV variants, unlocking a low-range gear for more demanding terrain.
Battersea Edition is offered exclusively as a plug-in hybrid. It produces 543 hp. The Battersea Edition also features Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control, which the SE and standard Dynamic SE do not include.
Autobiography uses the 4.4-liter V8 at 523 hp. It pairs that output with cabin and comfort features including a front center console refrigerator, four-zone climate control, and 22-way front seats.
SV, SV Black, and SV Carbon all use the 4.4-liter V8 at 626 hp. The SV variants share the same powertrain but differ in exterior specification. SV Black adds a body-colored carbon fiber hood and gloss black exterior treatment. SV Carbon replaces that with forged carbon fiber exterior elements and a satin forged carbon interior finisher. All three reach 60 mph in 3.7 seconds.
The breadth of the powertrain lineup means clients in Friendswood and the surrounding area can select the configuration that fits their actual life.
A client who commutes regularly and prefers to minimize fuel stops may find the PHEV models compelling. With up to 51 miles of electric range, clients whose routine travel falls within the available electric range may be able to complete many daily trips using electric power. The onboard AC/DC charging converter and included home charging cable make overnight charging straightforward.
A client who uses the Range Rover Sport for weekend travel, towing a boat or trailer to Galveston or Lake Conroe, will note that the V8 mild hybrid models tow up to 7,716 lbs, and the V8 provides sustained power at highway speeds with a loaded trailer.
A client who prioritizes performance can consider the SV variants at 626 hp with a 3.7-second 0-60 mph time.
The mild hybrid inline-6 variants provide another option: refined for urban driving, capable of 5.2 or 5.7 seconds to 60 mph, and not requiring any change in charging habits.
All powertrains are covered by a 4-year/50,000-mile basic and powertrain warranty.
The 2027 Range Rover Sport powertrain range spans five configurations across mild hybrid gasoline and plug-in hybrid architectures.
The plug-in hybrid variants produce 454 hp and 543 hp while providing up to 51 miles of electric range. This gives clients an electrified option alongside the gasoline mild hybrid configurations. SV, SV Black, and SV Carbon produce 626 hp and reach 60 mph in 3.7 seconds.
The mild hybrid inline-6 configurations begin with 355 hp in SE and rise to 395 hp in Dynamic SE. Range Rover Sport does not offer a four-cylinder option, with the lineup beginning with a six-cylinder mild hybrid powertrain.
The 2027 Range Rover Sport powertrain lineup runs from a 355 hp inline-6 mild hybrid to a 626 hp twin-turbo V8, with PHEV options carrying up to 51 miles of electric range in between. Land Rover Clear Lake serves clients throughout Friendswood and the greater Houston area with current inventory across the Range Rover Sport lineup. Contact the team to confirm availability on the powertrain configuration that suits your ownership priorities.
Five configurations are available: a 355 hp inline-6 mild hybrid (SE), a 395 hp inline-6 mild hybrid (Dynamic SE P400), a 454 hp or 543 hp inline-6 plug-in hybrid (Dynamic SE PHEV and Battersea Edition), a 523 hp V8 mild hybrid (Dynamic SE V8 and Autobiography), and a 626 hp V8 (SV, SV Black, SV Carbon). All use an 8-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive.
Yes. The Dynamic SE P460e and the Battersea Edition are both plug-in hybrids. They share a 3.0-liter inline-6 engine paired with a 31.8 kWh battery and an electric motor. Electric range reaches up to 51 miles. A 7 kW AC charger completes a full charge in approximately 5 hours.
SV, SV Black, and SV Carbon each produce 626 hp from a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8. All three reach 60 mph in 3.7 seconds. The SV variants also include 6D Dynamics and the SV Performance Braking System.
V8 and inline-6 mild hybrid models tow up to 7,716 lbs. PHEV variants (Dynamic SE P460e and Battersea Edition) have a maximum towing capacity of 6,614 lbs due to the additional weight of the battery system.
Yes. All-wheel drive is standard across every powertrain and model in the 2027 Range Rover Sport lineup. The SE uses a single-speed transfer box. The Dynamic SE (non-P360), Battersea Edition, and Autobiography use a twin-speed transfer box that adds a low-range gear for off-road use. SV, SV Black, and SV Carbon use a single-speed SV transfer box calibrated for performance driving.
Terrain Response 2 is standard across all 2027 Range Rover Sport models, from the SE through the SV Carbon. It allows the driver to select surface-specific modes that optimize throttle response, transmission behavior, and suspension tuning for the conditions at hand.
