External design changes are expected to be evolutionary rather than revolutionary with a deeper clamshell bonnet, smoothed flanks and Evoque-esque lights and grille - and more closely aligned in style to the Range Rover than the previous Sport.
Whilst the previous generation Range Rover was a luxurious offroader with masses of style the Sport offered bling by the bucketload, and was bought more by urban types than rural dwellers who actually needed the offroad ability of a Land Rover. The interior desperately needed a tidy, with buttons and dials scattered about the cabin like buckshot. The latest Range Rover offers a simpler, cleaner interior, and the Sport is expected to follow this more restrained ethos.
