Range Rover Sport V8 SC

The Range Rover Sport V8 SC reaches 60 mph in 5.12 s (100 km/h in 5.40 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.71 s, tripping the lights at 101.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.13 s and the eighth mile in 8.84 s, reaching 100 mph in 13.25 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Sport V8 SC

The 2010 Range Rover Sport V8 SC is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 2,649 kg with 503 bhp, which works out at 190 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.13 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,275th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 6th quickest of the 10 Range Rovers here. Its 101.7 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Range Rover Sport V8 SC 0-60 time?
The Range Rover Sport V8 SC reaches 60 mph in 5.12 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,275th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Range Rover Sport V8 SC quarter mile time?
13.71 s at 101.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.84 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.13 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Range Rover Sport V8 SC have?
503 bhp and 2,649 kg, which is 190 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 230 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Range Rover Sport V8 SC?
Closest here on pace: Mercedes-Benz GLE 500 e W166 (5.02 s), Jaguar F-Pace 3.0 340 (5.19 s), Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 (5.17 s). Each one can be raced against the Range Rover Sport V8 SC in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Range Rover Sport V8 SC is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-16. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
