How this compares
At 19 MPG combined, the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport ranks 5th of 7 standard SUVs (4WD) EPA rated for 2022 — 2 MPG short of the 21 MPG median for that group.
That places it in the lower third of its class. If annual mileage is high, the running-cost gap against a class-average rival compounds quickly.
EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $4,000, $400 more than the $3,600 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $20,000, a $2,000 difference against a class-median vehicle.
Tailpipe CO₂ is 474 grams per mile — about 7.1 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.
