New Range Rover Sport set to challenge 'Empty Quarter' desert crossing


* New Range Rover Sport set to challenge fastest recorded time across one of the most treacherous terrains in the world
* 650,000 sq km of hostile, unforgiving desert will provide a backdrop for the gruelling test of man and machine
* Dawn-to-dusk drive in a standard production vehicle piloted by off-road racer Moi Torrallardona

This coming week, Land Rover will attempt to set the fastest recorded time for a land vehicle crossing of the ‘Empty Quarter’ — one of the harshest and most challenging desert environments on the planet — using a standard production New Range Rover Sport.
