Ask It: 2010 Land Rover LR4 HSE Lux
We have just taken delivery of the 2010 Land Rover LR4 HSE. It’s not quite a Range Rover, but it certainly looks to have the off-road chops of its big brother. With a 5.0-liter V-8 producing 375 horsepower and Land Rover’s Terrain Managment System among the many off-road goodies, the LR4 wouldn’t be out of place on the on the side of a mountain, in a mud bog, or on the Rubicon.
List: Top Ten Spring Break Cars
It’s about that time of year again; if you’re a member of the 21-or-close-enough set, you’re likely to be planning some kind of splashy road trip to the sun-drenched lands. Florida, Mexico, it doesn’t matter, you’ll still need some wheels that look decent and have at least some room for a few of your closest party people. Our top picks for Spring Break cars put an emphasis on image, with a bone thrown in for practicality, occasionally.
Driven: 2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Supercharged
Perhaps the fat years for vehicles like the supercharged version of the Range Rover Sport have come to an end (or have nearly come there). Yes, Land Rover is still certainly more than willing to sell you one of its towering, racecar-fast SUVs, and there are probably more than a handful of well-off customers that are willing to buy. But the underlying era that gave birth to this category of super-fast SUVs has long since passed in the eyes of most who follow such things—dealt a dual deathblow by the fuel price spike of 2008 and the concurrent economic collapse. There’s something about losing your job and your life savings that makes you not want to burn four-dollar 97 octane at a rate of one gallon per 12 miles (or worse).

Driven: 2009 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Supercharged
The Range Rover Sport is a vehicle that can go anywhere, do anything, and look trendy in the process. No, it’s not going to win any awards in within the Green crowd, but for the consumers who actually pay out for one of these (especially in Supercharged trim), it won’t matter. In our week with the Range Rover Sport, we found it to have more than ample performance, relatively good handling (for an SUV), and a pretty luxurious interior.
