Supercars may be the stars of our driving tours, but it’s our legendary Range Rover unit that ensures everything runs seamlessly. These highly capable vehicles play a crucial role in helping us transfer guests, carry luggage, and even lead the pack.
By the end of each tour, many of our guests find themselves captivated by the style, comfort and practicality of these luxury SUVs. Read on as we explore the unique allure of Range Rovers and why they make the perfect support cars for a supercar convoy.
Three reasons why a Range Rover is the ideal support vehicle for a supercar tour
Wherever we travel in Europe, our Range Rovers are always with us. Nicknamed Charles and Lizzy, after the King and late Queen respectively, these SUVs are ideal for airport transfers, wine tastings and F1 events, providing a smooth and stylish journey.
These upscale SUVs are also an essential part of our breathtaking convoy, both providing navigation as the lead car and serving as the sweep car that follows behind. Such responsibility requires the Range Rovers to keep pace with our supercars, no matter where we are – a task they handle with ease.
Here are three reasons why our Range Rovers complement our supercar fleet:
1. Exceptional comfort & style
Luxury, comfort and style are as important to us as power and performance, and Range Rover delivers it all in abundance. The Sport features a sleek, muscular profile that exudes ability and elegance. Inside, the Range Rover Sport’s interior is pure class; a showcase of sophistication, with premium materials and cutting-edge technology. High-end features include multi-zone climate control, customisable ambient lighting, and executive heated seats creating a refined and comfortable space.
While we love the aggressive exterior of the Range Rover Sport, it’s the super-luxe interior that our guests really adore. We use these vehicles to collect and transfer guests at various stages of our tours, so they have to match our luxury offering. Our Range Rovers always make a great first impression and lasting memory, wherever we go.

2. Performance & handling to keep up with supercars
Our lead and sweep cars need the performance to keep pace with some of the world’s fastest supercars. The Range Rover Sport certainly delivers, with a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 engine capable of taking this SUV from 0 to 60 mph in around 4.3 seconds – a remarkable feat for a vehicle of its size and weight. With tuned handling, the Sport feels stable and agile, even at speed.
Lead cars are an essential source of information for our fleet, while sweep cars are equally crucial to a successful day of driving. When choosing our lead car, power is paramount – we need something that can comfortably lead Lamborghinis, Ferraris and Porsches, especially during periods of spirited driving. As one of the most capable sport SUVs on the market, the Range Rover Sport delivers exactly what we need.
3. Renowned utility: ‘Go anywhere, do anything’
While supercars deliver an unmatched driving experience, they’re less suited to the practical demands of adventure travel, such as carrying multiple passengers and their luggage. Range Rovers, however, thrive in all conditions, whether it’s navigating a tight and twisty mountain road or handling bumpy city streets. Rain, shine or snow, the Range Rover is always ready – our go-anywhere, do-anything powerhouse.

Get to know the Range Rover SUVs
Range Rovers are among the best luxury SUVs on the market, and among the brand’s ever-expanding selection of models, two in particular stand out: the Autobiography and the Sport.
Range Rover Autobiography
The ultimate Range Rover is the Autobiography, and this is a truly stunning SUV, delivering a limousine-like experience. Under the hood it’s a mean machine, with a 5.0-litre V8 engine, yet the Autobiography puts the emphasis on delivering a velvety ride in complete luxury. You can expect acres of space in the cabin and trunk, premium semi-aniline leather seats with in-seat massage, a panoramic sunroof, and a superior 3D surround sound system. Talk about plush.
Range Rover Sport Supercharged
While the Autobiography is the pinnacle of comfort and opulence, the Sport Supercharged is our choice for a full driving adventure. With its powerful V8 engine, eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, this nimble SUV is blisteringly fast and surprisingly composed. It’s compact, but not at the expense of comfort, with a luxuriously-outfitted cabin, ample leg room, and a plethora of entertainment features.
