Read moreA $45,000 used 2018 Range Rover sits in the same showroom as a $90,000 used 2024 Range Rover. The cabins look almost identical at a glance. The badge is identical. The depreciation curve says one is twice the bargain. The complaint data ranks the 2024 second and the 2018 third, acceptable only with a pre-purchase inspection (PPI). The 2020 to 2022 model years between them rank first. The federal NHTSA complaint database goes back to the L322 (2003) and tracks every owner-filed complaint by year, by engine code, and by component category. Key Takeaways 2020-2022 late L405 ranks first. All engines together drew 42 complaints on three model years, and the 3.0L Ingenium I6 (P400 family) accounts for 23 of
Read moreThe current Range Rover, the L460, has drawn 43 NHTSA complaints across three model years, about 43 percent of the per-year rate of the L405 it replaced. Range Rover reliability has been the punchline at every dinner party for two decades. The cabin smells like leather and the warranty smells like a second mortgage. The air suspension drops a corner at the grocery store. The infotainment freezes on the way to the airport. The dealership service writer knows your kids’ names. That reputation reflects the L322 and the early L405, both of which generated more federal complaints than the segment could explain. The Weekly Driver has been pulling the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration complaint database into a structured reliability

Read moreWhile Monterey Car Week’s public events capture global attention, the automotive world’s most coveted experiences unfold behind gated driveways and within private estates scattered across the Peninsula. These invitation-only gatherings, whispered about on social media and accessible only to industry insiders and loyal customers of luxury car manufacturers represent the true pinnacle of automotive exclusivity. Beyond the manicured lawns of Pebble Beach lies a parallel universe of secret events that automotive journalists and social media accounts only hint at in cryptic posts. These gatherings operate on an unspoken hierarchy where access depends less on wealth and more on relationships within the collector community. From Range Rover’s hillside mansion transformations to Ferrari’s private villa celebrations, dubbed Casa Ferrari, the Peninsula becomes
Read moreLand Rover decided 2022 was the ideal time to introduce the most expensive vehicle in the multi-national manufacturer’s nearly 75-year history. It’s called the Range Rover SV LWB. The rig is powerful. It features a 4.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 with 523 horsepower and a top speed of 155 miles per hour. Its vastness and power also result in impressive versatility. The Range Rover has an 8,000-pound towing capacity and it can also accelerate from 0-60 miles per hour in five seconds. With its preposterously opulent collection of features, the new Range Rover is the quarter-million dollar car from Jaguar Land Rover. Since 2008, it’s been a subsidiary of India’s Tata Motors and makes cars in Brazil, China, India, Slovakia and the
Read moreGrande Prairie, Alberta is a petroleum and agriculture-dominant city about 300 miles northwest of Edmonton. Winter driving is brutal. Citizens and seasonal oil field workers mostly rely on pickup trucks or sport utility vehicles. A few years ago, when visiting the city for several days during the late summer Tour of Alberta, the now-defunct professional cycling event, I re-enacted a version of the old family vacation game. But instead of counting license plates from different states, I counted vehicles. On two early morning runs with temperature in the mid-30s, I categorized the first 25 vehicles viewed. Combined, 43 of the 50 were pick-ups or SUVs. The roads were icy and muddy, potholes plentiful. Driving a heavy, all-wheel-drive vehicle made sense.
