The 2020 Land Rover Range Rover SUVs, come in 2 Iterations-Standard Wheelbase and Long Wheelbase. Both these versions come with different trims other than the Supercharged and Autobiography trims which are common to both trims.

The HSE trim offers a lot of premium features when compared to its higher trims and runs on a frugal power train as well. So, considering this in mid, the HSE trim makes the most sense, unless you are really keen on buying a powerful version of the Range Rover.

"Of the Range Rover's three gasoline powertrains, only one approaches genuine efficiency, and that's the diesel." - Car and Driver

The Rand Rover gives a decent fuel economy when compared to the competition. In fact, it pretty much takes the crown. It is only nearly-bested by the Lincoln Navigator, however, we have not considered it competition for various other reasons of comparison.

The Range Rover leads its rivals in terms of the range on offer, followed by the duo of the Lexus and the Toyota and the Maserati respectively. The Lexus and the Land Cruiser both provide almost the same economy, the reasons for which are obviously its parent company being the same.

Dimensions and Design of the 2020 Land Rover Range Rover

The 2020 Land Rover Range Rover, resembles the previous year model in almost every way from the outside. It still retains its boxy proportions but manages to look elegant and poised. The LED Headlights and the massive Alloys, add to the overall appeal and flair of this SUV.

The Range Rover seems like it has decent measurement for an off-road SUV yet the ground clearance does not look like it can take off-road that easily. While one will still have to be careful about swerving into those marshy lands, one would suggest sticking to the tarmac with this one.

2020 Land Rover Range Rover vs. 2020 Lexus LX 570

The Lexus has comfortable seating, posh interiors, much bigger cargo volume, more passenger seating capacity, 3-row seating, great off-road. But it suffers in fuel economy, a bit expensive starting model, average acceleration, and equipment. The Lexus is a great alternative to the Range Rover, but if shelling out a couple more grand does not seem to be a concern, the Range Rover is much better on the higher and successive trims.

2020 Land Rover Range Rover vs. 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser

The Land Cruiser offers a 3-row configuration and can seat 8 passengers as well while offering a much better boot space. Whats better is the fact that its cheaper than the range rover by some margin. The Japanese SUV does seem like an excellent alternative to the Range Rover but when it comes to sheer brand value and levels of refinement of luxury, the Range Rover is a class on its own and justifies its premium.

2020 Land Rover Range Rover vs. 2020 Maserati Levante S

While the Levante was touted by Maserati as a Performance SUV, the Levante didn't exactly lack the luxury one associates from a Maserati. It beats the Land Rover hands down in the performance department and comes loaded with a whole set of tech inside. But, a person seeking a Luxury SUV will surely be disappointed by some of the Materials used inside the Maserati. The Range Rover leaves no stone unturned in offering the perfect blend of comfort, luxury, and performance and which is why it's the one to go amongst the 2.

For a starting price of nearly $90,000, the Range Rover seems to be quite an expensive proposition. But considering the variety of engines on offer, luxury quotient, and the unmatched off-road ability and comfort on offer, the Range Rover justifies this price. With the addition of some nifty tech features like Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and driver assistance features, the 2020 Land Rover Range Rover is one of the few SUVs in the market that will take you to unexplored places but inside a royal and luxurious cocoon.
