The Land Rover Range Rover Sport is an automobile that leaves little room for improvement. However, as is the world of tuning, there are people out there that simply can’t be satisfied by a go anywhere do anything luxury sport utility vehicle and those people crave more. It is exactly for this type of audience that the automotive aftermarket re stylers at Onyx have come up with this concept.
The modified Range Rover features a wide body conversion, new front grill and side vents all made from carbon fiber and a 14 piece interior trim kit. The Onyx Range Rover Sport concept comes with a lowered suspension and Onyx the tuner’s own TPM wheels measuring 22 inches in diameter.

Out back there will be a redesigned rear bumper with cutouts for the dual exhaust as opposed to the original quartet of tailpipes as well as a new rear diffuser to complete the sporty appearance. Rounding out the Platinum V will be a set of blacked out double spoke TPM custom wheels.
There’s no better way to promote a new car than to have it tested against the previous model and have the 2010 version thoroughly embarrass its predecessor.
Apparently, that’s exactly what Land Rover had in mind when it pitted the 2010 Range Rover Sport Supercharged against its 2009 counterpart in a test to determine which car can reach 100 mph first and then brake all the way down to a stop.
From the get-go the 2010 Range Rover Sport Supercharged immediately flexed its power over the 200 version by pulling away convincingly reaching its 100 mph speed and coming to halt even before the 2009 clocked 100 on its speedometer.
The difference is striking, to say the least. The 2010 version has 127 horsepower and around 51 lb-ft of torque more than the 2009 version, which accounts for all the difference.
Now, we’re all for promoting new cars, but for a brand to do it by completely trashing a previous model just may be a little too much for us.
Sometimes, we just can’t get enough of a good thing. And more often than not, we won’t waste any time taking advantage of it.
Land Rover recently unveiled their luxury armoured Range Rover, proving that you can enjoy the best in luxury, performance, and security all at the same time.
Coated in an impregnable B6 Level ballistic and blast protection, this particular Range Rover has the chops to withstand a barrage of bullets from an assault rifle, making it the perfect vehicle for people who need as much security in them as possible.
In addition to satisfying the safety and security requirements of the European standard EN1522 level FB6, the armoured Range Rover was also built while keeping up with Land Rover’s reputation for providing the most comfortable and luxurious SUV’s in the world.
Suffice to say, it’s the best of all words really. The name ‘Range Rover’ speaks for itself already, and if you add the fact that the car can withstand just about anything, then you can’t probably ask for more out of your own SUV.
