The new Range Rover Sport 10MY has come top in a best design
newcomers award poll conducted by Europe's biggest selling motor
magazine. Readers of Germany's prestigious Auto Motor and Sport
magazine voted the Range Rover Sport into first place in the
off-road vehicles category of the Autonis awards - ahead of its
home grown German rivals.
More than ten thousand readers took part in the reader survey
comprising 89 different vehicles in eight separate categories
available in the market place. In the off-road category readers had
to choose between thirteen vehicles. The Range Rover Sport 10MY
came first with 20.4% of the vote, the Audi Q7 took second with
17.4% and third place went to the Mercedes ML with 10.4 %.
The Awards ceremony at the Frankfurt motor show (IAA) was
supported by the automotive industry's leading designers. Gerry
McGovern, Land Rover Design Director, said, "The new Range Rover
Sport has a cleaner, more muscular appearance with a bold new
frontal graphic that helps to reinforce the vehicle's athletic
stance. To be voted top by readers of a highly respected German
magazine ahead of strong competition from the homegrown competition
is a truly outstanding achievement."
The interior of the Range Rover Sport 10MY has been
comprehensively redesigned and features significantly improved
standards of quality and craftsmanship that are truly worthy of the
Range Rover brand. The cabin retains its popular, snug, cockpit
feel but incorporates higher quality materials, sumptuous
soft-touch finishes and superb detailing throughout.
The Range Rover Sport 10MY is due to arrive in Australia in
early October.
