Will the Range Rover 2023 body style change?

For decades, Land Rover has been associated with a very elitist, British lifestyle. In 2016, Maxim magazine even had a rather controversial editorial that featured the Holland & Holland Range Rover in the setting of the Biltmore Estate built by George Vanderbilt. Some gents dressed in Tory chic attire tried to replicate the upper class dress code of British aristocracy while featuring the car in the background because nothing says English upper class like the Range Rover.

Luckily, the Land Rover branched out and moved past its aura of elitism. The recent Range Rover models are luxurious without displaying an elitist backbone. Naturally, this increases the appeal of the car brand while also building connections with younger demographics from emerging markets.

It’s worth noting that Range Rover is owned by the Indian auto manufacturing company Tata Motors; thus, embracing a more “accessible” mantra helps with winning over customers from South Asian markets.

As for the most noteworthy models that came out in recent years, the Land Rover Range Rover Sport is by far one of the most acclaimed. The rugged automobile has incredible off-roading capabilities, unique safety and tech features, and a luxurious interior that impresses even when it is compared against famous rivals like BMW X5 or Mercedes-Benz GLE-class.

For obvious reasons, the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is a luxury SUV and a status symbol. As such, buyers expect to find a lounge-like luxurious cabin that communicates the personality of the owner without being too ostentatious. Luckily, this sport SUV doesn’t fail to impress.

While some automotive magazines and digital publications like Car and Driver highlight that the interior is more minimalist for the 2023 model, as buttons and switches have been reduced, the move is in line with new trends in the car industry. Take, for example, the interior of the 2023 Genesis G90 or the Rolls-Royce Ghost, which are also minimalist and very luxurious. Land Rover has understood that customers don’t want frills or certain gadgets and technology that appear useless during their drive, so they came up with a cabin that incorporates only the gadgets and technology that increases driving pleasure and comfort.

The selection between textile and Windsor leather upholstery is a welcomed change, as it gives eco-conscious drivers the option of having a leather-free car interior. Meanwhile, the standard 20-way power-adjustable front seats with memory and heating offer optimum comfort, and they make every ride more enjoyable. The First Edition comes equipped with 22-way heated and ventilated power-adjustable front seats, which have the massage functions included.

Another massive 13.7-inch display is the instrument cluster, which accompanies the curved touchscreen.

The 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Sport also comes equipped with the Pivi Pro infotainment system and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard. Amazon's Alexa and a wireless smartphone charging pad are other standard features.
