Range Rover Sport Car Hire Iceland: Luxury PHEV AWD Guide

Hiring a Range Rover Sport in Iceland means choosing the most premium guaranteed-model PHEV in the Hertz Iceland Luxury Fleet. The P510e combines a 3.0L inline-six petrol engine with a 31.8 kWh battery and electric motor for 510 PS combined output — enough to cover 88–121 km on electric power alone, and to accelerate to 100 km/h in 5.3 seconds when the full petrol-electric drivetrain is engaged.

For travellers looking to rent a Range Rover Sport in Iceland, the P510e is the flagship PHEV option — not an SVR performance variant, but the plug-in hybrid that offers the most EV range, the fastest charging, and the most refined cabin of any PHEV we operate. Its 22 kW AC onboard charger is the fastest in the fleet, returning a full charge in approximately 1 hour 40 minutes at a compatible wallbox — genuinely useful for overnight hotel charging or a midday top-up at Reykjavík’s growing Type 2 charging network.

⚠️ Important: The charging cable is not included as standard. Add it during booking at hertz.is.

Is the Range Rover Sport Good for Driving in Iceland?

Yes — for Iceland’s paved main roads and premium long-range itineraries, the Range Rover Sport P510e is the most capable and refined PHEV available in our fleet.

• Real-World Space: 1,156 litres of boot space with all five seats in use — comfortably fitting 4 large hard-shell suitcases. One of the largest boots in the guaranteed-model category, and significantly more practical than similarly-priced premium PHEVs.
• EV Range: 88–121 km WLTP — the longest EV range of any PHEV in the Hertz Iceland fleet. Real-world range varies by speed, temperature, and HVAC usage, but even in conservative conditions this covers the Golden Circle loop’s Reykjavík city sections, South Coast hotel-to-waterfall runs, and shorter Ring Road legs entirely on electric power.
• AWD Performance: Permanent AWD with Terrain Response 2 Auto mode adapts continuously to Iceland’s varied paved and gravel surfaces. Air suspension adjusts ride height automatically. 510 PS and 700 Nm deliver strong, effortless progress at any speed.
• Charging: 22 kW AC charging (full in ~1h 40min) and 50 kW DC fast charging (80% in ~50 min) — the most capable charging setup of any PHEV in the fleet. Add the cable at booking.
• Cabin Comfort: Meridian surround sound, curved cabin display, Cabin Air Purification, massage seats, and a panoramic sunroof make the Range Rover Sport car hire experience genuinely first-class on long Iceland driving days.
• Safety: Standard suite includes Adaptive Cruise Control with Queue Assist, Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist, Blind Spot Assist, Rear Traffic Monitor, and 3D Surround Camera. For a full guide to driving safely in Iceland’s conditions, see safe.hertz.is.

When Is the Range Rover Sport the Right Choice?

• Summer (May–September): Ideal for the Ring Road, South Coast, Golden Circle, and Snæfellsnes Peninsula — routes where long EV range and fast charging make a meaningful difference to fuel costs, and where the premium cabin earns its rate on long driving days.
• Winter (October–April): One of the most confident winter paved-road vehicles in the fleet. AWD with Terrain Response, air suspension, and winter tyres handle Iceland’s main roads in all conditions. For winter driving guidance, visit safe.hertz.is.
• Business or luxury travellers: The Range Rover Sport luxury SUV rental is the most prestigious guaranteed-model PHEV in our Iceland fleet — the vehicle of choice when the experience of the hire matters as much as the destination.

⚠️ Not ideal if:

• You plan F-road or Highland driving — the Range Rover Sport PHEV is strictly forbidden on F-roads and Highland tracks. Despite its AWD and Terrain Response system, this vehicle is not approved for F-road use. For F-road PHEV access, the Defender PHEV is the only option. See safe.hertz.is/f-road-guide.
• You cannot present two credit cards at pickup — non-negotiable requirement for this category.
• You need more than 5 seats — the Range Rover Sport seats 5 only in the fleet configuration.

Rental Requirements & Restrictions

• Minimum Age: 25 years old.
• License: Valid driving license held for a minimum of 1 year. IDP required if license is not in Roman script.
• Payment: Two valid credit cards in the main renter’s name required at pickup.
• Charging Cable: Not included — add at booking via hertz.is.
• F-Road Policy: STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. The Range Rover Sport PHEV is not permitted on F-roads or Highland tracks under any circumstances. It is permitted on Road 35 (Kjölur) and Road 550 (Kaldidalur) only when conditions are clear and officially open.

Inside the Range Rover Sport PHEV

Hiring a Range Rover Sport is a different proposition from any other vehicle in the Hertz Iceland fleet. The cabin doesn’t just feel premium — it is engineered to that standard at every surface. Curved cabin display spanning 13.1 and 11.4-inch screens sits at the centre of a dashboard that eliminates visual clutter without losing usability. Pivi Pro manages navigation, Terrain Response settings, charging status, and climate from a single interface that responds in real time.

Meridian surround sound fills a cabin that, in electric mode, is among the quietest vehicles on Iceland’s roads. Massage seats on both front positions, a panoramic sunroof, and ambient lighting that adjusts to the time of day make six-hour Ring Road driving days feel genuinely different from what most Iceland rental vehicles offer. The air suspension’s ability to raise the vehicle at the touch of a button — transitioning from motorway to gravel car park approach — happens without the driver needing to think about it.

Five adults sit in genuine luxury, not nominal comfort. Rear legroom is generous enough for tall passengers on full-day driving itineraries, and the wide rear doors open flat for easy boarding. At 1,156 litres, the boot loads four large hard-shell suitcases with room remaining — a premium vehicle that doesn’t compromise on practicality.

In electric mode on Reykjavík’s streets, the Range Rover Sport moves with a composure that no combustion vehicle can replicate. At speed on the Ring Road’s long northern stretches — AWD locked in, adaptive cruise set, Meridian playing, the cabin near-silent — this is what Range Rover Sport long term rental advocates mean when they describe the vehicle as genuinely addictive to drive.

Range Rover Sport Dimensions, Seating and Luggage For Your Trip

The Range Rover Sport’s 1,156-litre boot fits 4 large hard-shell suitcases with all five seats in use — enough for two couples or a family of four on a full Ring Road itinerary without using rear seat space.

History of Land Rover / Range Rover

Land Rover was founded in Britain in 1948, with the original Range Rover launched in 1970 as a more refined, road-focused alternative to the utilitarian Land Rover. Where the Land Rover was built for work, the Range Rover was designed for both genuine AWD capability and luxury comfort — a combination that defined a new vehicle category and has been refined continuously for over 50 years.

The Range Rover Sport, introduced in 2005, brought the Range Rover’s combination of luxury and AWD engineering into a more dynamic, driver-focused package — lower, faster, and sportier than the full-size Range Rover while retaining the same core Terrain Response technology and premium cabin standards. The third generation, launched in 2022 and running the P510e PHEV from 2023, represents the most advanced Range Rover Sport ever produced — adding a 31.8 kWh battery and 88–121 km of electric range to a platform already recognised as one of the world’s benchmark luxury AWD vehicles.

When you hire a Range Rover Sport with Hertz Iceland, you’re choosing a vehicle that has defined the luxury SUV segment for nearly two decades — now at its most capable and most efficient.

Range Rover Sport PHEV Rental FAQs

• • Is the Range Rover Sport a guaranteed model with Hertz Iceland?
    Yes. When you book this category, you are guaranteed to receive a Range Rover Sport P510e PHEV — not a substitute or comparable vehicle. This is one of a small number of guaranteed-model categories in our fleet.

• • Can I drive the Range Rover Sport on F-roads?
    No. Despite its AWD system and Terrain Response technology, the Range Rover Sport PHEV is strictly forbidden on F-roads and Highland tracks in Iceland. It is permitted on Road 35 (Kjölur) and Road 550 (Kaldidalur) only when conditions are clear and officially open. For F-road PHEV access, the Land Rover Defender PHEV is the only option in our fleet. Check safe.hertz.is/f-road-guide for vehicle eligibility.

• • What is the EV range of the Range Rover Sport PHEV?
    The Range Rover Sport P510e is rated at 88–121 km WLTP on electric power — the longest EV range of any PHEV in the Hertz Iceland fleet. Real-world range will vary by speed, temperature, and HVAC usage. In Iceland’s cooler temperatures, expect figures closer to the lower end of the WLTP range. The 31.8 kWh battery is the largest PHEV battery in our fleet.

• • Is the charging cable included?
    No. The charging cable must be added separately during booking at hertz.is. The Range Rover Sport PHEV supports 22 kW AC charging (full charge in approximately 1h 40min at a compatible Type 2 wallbox) and 50 kW DC fast charging (80% in approximately 50 minutes). These are the fastest charging speeds of any PHEV in our fleet. Without the cable, the vehicle operates as a fully capable petrol AWD.

• • Is the Range Rover Sport good for winter driving in Iceland?
    Yes. Permanent AWD with Terrain Response 2, air suspension, and season-appropriate winter tyres make the Range Rover Sport one of the most confident winter paved-road vehicles in our fleet. Cold temperatures will reduce EV range below the WLTP figure — pre-condition the battery while plugged in before every winter departure. F-roads are closed in winter. For winter driving guidance, visit safe.hertz.is.

• • How much luggage fits in the Range Rover Sport?
    The Range Rover Sport PHEV boot holds 1,156 litres with all five seats in use — comfortably fitting 4 large hard-shell suitcases. This is one of the largest boots in the Hertz Iceland luxury PHEV category, making the Range Rover Sport a practical as well as prestigious choice for two couples or a family travelling with full luggage.

• • Is this the Range Rover Sport SVR?
    No — the Hertz Iceland Range Rover Sport is the P510e PHEV, not the SVR performance variant. The P510e combines 510 PS petrol-electric output with 88–121 km of electric range — prioritising efficiency and luxury over track performance. It is the most advanced and most capable PHEV variant of the Range Rover Sport available.

• • Where can I find driving safety information for Iceland?
    Hertz Iceland operates safe.hertz.is — a dedicated driving safety hub covering winter driving, F-road guidance, road conditions, and emergency contacts. Available to all travellers in Iceland, not just Hertz customers.

• • Does Hertz Iceland offer Roadside Assistance?
    Yes. Roadside Assistance can be added at the rental desk at pickup — not bookable online in advance. It costs 1,990 ISK/day standalone, or 990 ISK/day when added with MAX Coverage. If you need assistance during your rental, pay the service fee at the time, then bring your receipt when you return the car — we’ll refund the covered amount to your card on file. Emergency line: +354 858 0499 (24/7).
