TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee offers an engine for everyone, and a feature list as extensive as those found in luxury sedans.

The 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport takes the last part of its name very seriously, offering the best driving dynamics yet from the famed off-roading brand.

TCC Likes

Looks far more expensive than it is
Eight-speed automatics for all
Ecodiesel's 30-mpg rating, 730-mile range

Crisp styling blends Range Rover, Evoque
Rorty supercharged V-6, thundering supercharged V-8
Serene, stately cabin

TCC Dislikes

What's with that wan little grille?
Almost every version's over $30k
HEMI seems somewhat pointless now

Big jump from base to Autobiography
"+2" seating is only for kids, only for very short trips
No hybrid or diesel option--yet
