Our spy photographers believe Land Rover (http://www.autoblog.com/land+rover/) may be hard at work on a new, higher performance version of the company's Range Rover Sport (http://www.autoblog.com/land+rover/range+rover+sport/). The creation you see here was spotted hopping around the Nürburgring (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/nurburgring/), complete with a reworked front fascia that boasts larger air inlets. Those intakes could be feeding a more potent driveline with more than the 510 horsepower found in lesser Sport models. This machine could be a more venomous Range Rover Sport R.

Of course, the standard 2014 Range Rover Sport is nothing to sneeze at (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/26/2014-land-rover-range-rover-sport-drops-800-pounds-adds-v6-and-third-row/). Engineers pulled a baffling 800 pounds from the SUV compared to the previous generation thanks to a complete aluminum substructure. Packing 510 horsepower from a supercharged 5.0-liter V8, the performance SUV should have no trouble getting up and hustling. Stay tuned for more details as they become available.Is Land Rover developing a Range Rover Sport R?
