Video: Land Rover releases first Range Rover Sport teaser footage

Land Rover is gearing up for this year's New York Auto Show with a teaser for the company's new Range Rover Sport. The brief clip doesn't reveal much beyond a fender and a quick glimpse at a headlamp but features the machine's exhaust note for the first time. Details are scarce as it can be at the moment, but it certainly sounds like eight cylinders. The Range Rover Sport was last seen in the snow near the Arctic Circle. That peek didn't give much to go on beyond some suggestion towards a significantly revised lower fascia, though we have heard Land Rover is working on whipping up a seven-passenger version of the Range Rover Sport in addition to the standard five-passenger model. Since previous iterations of the RRS have derived their underpinnings from the seven-passenger LR4, that would seem to be a pretty easy thing to engineer. While you're waiting for the Big Apple reveal, you can check out the new teaser video below.
