Best Land Rover Models for Pittsburgh Weekends, Families, Pets & Outdoor Gear
Best Land Rover for Pittsburgh Commuting
Range Rover Evoque
Advantages:
- Small size and maneuverability in tight spaces
- Responsive performance and smooth ride quality
- Adaptive cruise control for unpredictable city driving
It’s not hard to figure out which Land Rover model is best for Pittsburgh commuting, because the Range Rover Evoque was practically purpose-built for it. With adaptive cruise control, you’ll never have to worry about the unpredictable starting and stopping on I-376 and the Fort Pitt Bridge, and a 3D Surround Camera with ClearSight Ground View provides a complete picture of what’s going on outside of your vehicle — including the area underneath your wheels. The Evoque’s size, of course, is also a distinct advantage here. In terms of exterior dimensions, it’s the smallest Range Rover, and its 105.5-inch wheelbase is ideal for steering responsiveness and maneuverability in tight spaces.

Best Land Rover for Families
Range Rover
Advantages:
- Long wheelbase version offers the most cargo space
- Available in both five and seven-seat configurations
- Best of the best when it comes to luxury and comfort
You simply can’t beat the flagship Range Rover when it comes to combining the sort of volume that can accommodate any family, along with the sort of features that make it a pleasurable ride for everyone. The Range Rover is available in two different wheelbase lengths, with the longer 126-inch wheelbase boasting a maximum of 92.9 cubic feet of cargo capacity, as well as an available third seating row. Throw in a towing capacity of up to 8,200 pounds (depending on its configuration), and you have everything you need to transport all of your people and things. Inside the cabin, an available rear-seat entertainment package offers dual screens to keep the back-seat passengers engaged.

Best Land Rover for Pets
Discovery
Advantages:
- Available Pet Packs with optimized accessories
- Robust cargo dimensions with large flat area
- Low loading height
Any pet owner can tell you that there’s a lot to consider when traveling with a furry friend (or friends), things that aren’t typically addressed in most of the typical vehicle literature. However, the Land Rover Discovery is able to address those concerns as well as any other option. That begins with an electronic air suspension that allows you to lower the vehicle to allow easy entry and exit through the rear. The Discovery offers up to 70.5 cubic feet of cargo space, ample room for any pet to explore during the drive, but just as importantly, an abundance of flat space to lay down protective covering. Speaking of protective coverings, dedicated Pet Packs for the Discovery include compatible accessories like a quilted floor liner, as well as things like a spill-resistant water bowl and a foldable access ramp.

Best Land Rover for Weekend Trips
Defender 110
Advantages:
- 34.0 cubic feet of cargo space, even with all seats in place
- Available third row with seating for up to seven
- Off-road optimized features ready for any adventure
Though a weekend trip can include just about anything, the good news is that the Defender 110 is capable of just about anything. The Defender lineup, generally, is known for its off-roading abilities, and the 110 certainly delivers on that promise with features like a standard Terrain Response 2 system that constantly optimizes power and traction based on the conditions, redistributing power as soon as slippage is detected, as well as an adaptive off-road cruise control feature that can help you stay on course and even 35.4 inches of wading depth. An available third row means that you don’t have to venture into the unknown alone, but even if your weekend trip primarily involves the familiar, plenty of luxury features and cargo space can still help you get there.

Best Land Rover for Cargo
Defender 130
Advantages:
- Most standard-configuration cargo space
- Spacious seating for up to eight people
- 8,200 pounds of towing capacity, when properly equipped
Outside of the Range Rover extended wheelbase variant, the Defender 130 offers the most cargo space of any Land Rover or Range Rover. Even with all of the seats up, it has 15.3 cubic feet available, a number that increases to 43.5 cubic feet with the third seating row folded down, and 89.0 cubic feet with all rear seats down. Naturally, “cargo” can include people as well, and with seating for up to eight people, the Defender 130 is your best bet for transporting large families or groups. Not only that, but unlike in many vehicles, the third row is truly a usable space for adults, with 33.1 inches of legroom and 38.3 inches of headroom. If, somehow, all of that isn’t enough, the Defender 130 offers up to 8,200 pounds of towing capacity.

Best Land Rover for Luxury Daily Driving
Range Rover Sport
Advantages:
- Six powertrain options in a smaller, more athletic package
- Available 22-way massaging seats with premium materials
- Meridian Signature Sound SystemTM with up to 29 speakers
The Range Rover might be the epitome of luxury, but the Range Rover Sport offers most of the same feeling in a more manageable and responsive package. It has a lower stance than its sibling with athletic handling, and with six different powertrain options — including a 4.4-liter V8 that delivers 626 horsepower — there’s no question that it’s incredibly fun to drive. All of the luxury features that you’ve come to expect from a Range Rover are available as well, including a Meridian Signature Sound SystemTM with up to 29 speakers, sculpted, 22-way massaging seats in a variety of premium materials, a Pivi Pro infotainment system with full smartphone connectivity, and a panoramic glass roof accented by 30 configurable lighting hues. The Range Rover Sport is truly the best of all worlds.
