Ownership Costs
A straight answer from a Land Rover service department: what independent data says a Range Rover costs to maintain, how it compares with other luxury SUVs, where the reliability concerns are real, and what keeps costs down for Long Island owners.
Schedule Service View Service SpecialsQuick Answer
Yes, compared with the average vehicle, and roughly in line with other luxury SUVs. CarEdge estimates a Range Rover costs about $19,749 in maintenance and repairs over its first 10 years, and a Range Rover Sport about $18,795. It rates both slightly better than the luxury SUV average. RepairPal puts the average Land Rover at $1,174 a year in repairs and maintenance, against $652 for all vehicles, and rates the brand's reliability 2.5 out of 5. Repair exposure is lowest while the 4-year/50,000-mile warranty covers defects. Scheduled maintenance is owner-paid unless prepaid, and costs climb after the warranty ends, so maintenance history matters.
CarEdge's model-level estimates of combined maintenance and repair spending. These are national averages from independent data, not Land Rover Freeport's service prices.
| Measure | Range Rover | Range Rover Sport |
|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | $926 | $831 |
| Year 5 | $1,824 | $1,728 |
| Year 10 | $2,859 | $2,764 |
| First 5 years, total | $6,591 | $6,113 |
| First 10 years, total | $19,749 | $18,795 |
| Chance of a major repair by year 5 | 23.97% | 23.97% |
| Chance of a major repair by year 10 | 51.26% | 51.26% |
Two things stand out. First, costs rise steadily with age: year 10 costs about three times year 1. Second, CarEdge rates both models better than the luxury SUV segment over 10 years, by about $5,394 for the Range Rover and $4,440 for the Sport. Over the first five years the Range Rover lands close to the segment average. The "Range Rovers bankrupt their owners" story is mostly about neglected, out-of-warranty vehicles, not a well-kept one in its first years.
Independent repair data does not rank Land Rover well.
| Measure | Figure |
|---|---|
| Brand reliability rating | 2.5 out of 5, ranked 31st of 32 brands |
| Average annual repair cost | $1,174 (all vehicles: $652) |
| Unscheduled repair visits per year | About 0.7 (all vehicles: 0.4) |
| Share of repairs rated severe | 16% (all vehicles: 12%) |
| Range Rover (model) rating | 2.0 out of 5, 15th of 19 luxury full-size SUVs |
| Range Rover average annual cost | $1,258 (luxury full-size SUV average: $1,127) |
| Range Rover unscheduled visits per year | About 0.6 (luxury full-size SUV average: 0.7) |
Read these numbers in context. Against the luxury full-size SUV segment, the Range Rover's $1,258 a year is about $130 above average, and its unscheduled-visit rate of 0.6 a year is slightly below the segment's 0.7. The gap is much wider against mainstream vehicles, which is why the brand ranks low overall. A Range Rover will cost more to keep than a Toyota. Against the SUVs it's cross-shopped with, it sits near the pack.
The issues Land Rover owners and repair shops raise most often are the systems that make the vehicle what it is: air suspension components, and the electronics behind modern infotainment and driver-assistance features. Air suspension gives a Range Rover its ride and its ability to raise for rough ground, and it's also a wear system that eventually needs parts. Electrical faults are often fixed by software updates and campaigns applied during routine service, which is one reason skipped dealer visits compound into bigger problems.

RepairPal's national estimates for selected Range Rover repairs, parts and labor included. These are independent figures, not Land Rover Freeport prices. Your cost depends on model year, engine and what the diagnosis finds.
| Repair | Estimated cost range |
|---|---|
| Active suspension air spring control solenoid replacement | $1,084 to $1,193 |
| Control arm replacement | $1,448 to $1,527 |
| Air bag control module replacement | $1,528 to $1,725 |
| Blower motor resistor replacement | $1,049 to $1,457 |
| Engine coolant temperature sensor replacement | $691 to $829 |
| Alternator voltage regulator replacement | $611 to $749 |
| Stabilizer bushing replacement | $376 to $512 |
| Pre-purchase inspection | $296 to $435 |
Suspension and electrical components account for most of the four-figure work, matching the reliability data above. If you're buying a used Range Rover, a pre-purchase inspection at the bottom of this table is the cheapest insurance against the items above it. For current prices on routine work at our Freeport service department, see service specials.
Current Land Rovers use a Flexible Service system: the vehicle tells you when service is due, generally every 16,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. The full schedule is in our Land Rover maintenance schedule guide.

Maintenance history also feeds straight into value. A documented dealer service record is one of the things that separates a strong trade-in from a weak one. See our Land Rover resale value data for how much model choice and condition matter.

Schedule ServiceMore than an average vehicle, and roughly in line with other luxury SUVs. CarEdge estimates about $19,749 in maintenance and repairs over a Range Rover's first 10 years, slightly better than the luxury SUV average.
Independent data rates it below average. RepairPal gives Land Rover 2.5 out of 5 for reliability, 31st of 32 brands, with about 0.7 unscheduled repair visits a year against 0.4 for all vehicles. Against luxury full-size SUV rivals, the gap is much smaller.
RepairPal's average for all Land Rover models is $1,174 a year for repairs and maintenance. CarEdge's estimates for a Range Rover rise from about $926 in year one to about $2,859 in year ten.
Current models use a Flexible Service system that generally calls for service every 16,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first.
New Land Rovers come with a 4-year/50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty and a 6-year unlimited-mileage corrosion warranty.
Slightly. CarEdge estimates about $18,795 over 10 years for the Range Rover Sport against about $19,749 for the Range Rover.
