Stupid review

A "Grand Touring" car is one that is fast, comfortable, and luxurious, and meant for long-distance travel at a high average speed. The category originally applied to two-seat, or perhaps 2+2, coupes that offered performance equal to or better than the sports cars of the day, with far greater comfort. This still may be the purist definition, but over the years there have been a number of sedans that could be considered for the category as well.

PERFORMANCE: Under the Sport Supercharged's hood sits 4.2 liters of supercharged and intercooled twincam, aluminum alloy V8. 390 horsepower, 410 lb-ft of torque, instant acceleration. With torque like that, a transmission is hardly needed, but the Sport's ZF six-speed automatic contributes to the vehicle's prowess and civility. With 0-60 acceleration in the low 7 second range, passing and merging are no problem. There is a manual-shift mode, but rarely is there the slightest necessity as torque comes in early and strong, peaking at 3500 rpm. With its 5700-pound mass and the available power, stopping a Range Rover Sport takes strong brakes, and the Dynamic Response Package's are up to the task. Four-piston Brembo calipers grip large vented discs in front, with smaller calipers and rotors at the rear. Fuel economy? Do the math... 5700 pounds + 390 horsepower != "economy". The laws of physics are always obeyed, no loopholes here. At around 13 mpg overall, it's no different from most other SUVs.
