Model Summaries
Land Rover Defender 110
Electrical faults and cracking windshields are what to watch on this full-size SUV. The 2024 model year is the one to favor, with far fewer owner complaints than 2022 or 2023. A failed DC/DC converter can trigger a dash warning and then a full shutdown, and windshields crack with no impact. The 2025 and 2026 cars are too new to judge.
Average score: 60/100. Best year: 2024 (64/100). 6 years tracked.
Land Rover Range Rover Sport
Mixed overall and well below average among sedans on the site. Screens freeze or go black and take climate and backup camera controls with them, and coolant pipes near the supercharger can split and overheat the engine. Favor the 2024 model year. Be wary of 2018 and 2020, which draw the most serious complaints.
Average score: 57/100. Best year: 2024 (64/100). 9 years tracked.
