Tires and Wheels
The F-Pace SVR’s optional 265/40R22 front and 295/35R22 rear tires provide better handling because they have a lower 40 series front and 35 series rear profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Range Rover Sport’s optional 45 series tires.
Having a flat tire is dangerous, inconvenient and expensive. The self-sealing tires available on the F-Pace can automatically seal most punctures up to 3/16 of an inch, effectively preventing most flat tires. The Range Rover Sport doesn’t offer self-sealing tires.
Suspension and Handling
The F-Pace SVR handles at .89 G’s, while the Range Rover Sport SE pulls only .81 G’s of cornering force in a Car and Driver skidpad test.
Chassis
The Jaguar F-Pace may be more efficient, handle and accelerate better because it weighs about 1000 to 1350 pounds less than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport.
The F-Pace is 7.8 inches shorter than the Range Rover Sport, making the F-Pace easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.
The F-Pace is 5.2 inches narrower than the Range Rover Sport, making the F-Pace easier to handle and maneuver in traffic.
Cargo Capacity
The F-Pace has a larger cargo volume with its rear seat folded than the Range Rover Sport with its rear seat folded (70.4 vs. 66 cubic feet).
A standard locking glovebox (which can’t be accessed with the valet key) keeps your small valuables safer in the F-Pace. The Range Rover Sport doesn’t offer locking storage for small valuables.
Ergonomics
If the windows are left open on the F-Pace the driver can close them all at the outside door handle. On a hot day the driver can lower the windows at the outside door handle or from a distance using the keyless remote. The driver of the Range Rover Sport can only close the windows from inside the vehicle, with the ignition on.
The F-Pace has a standard heated steering wheel to take the chill out of steering on extremely cold winter days before the vehicle heater warms up. A heated steering wheel costs extra on the Range Rover Sport.
