Difference between a supercharged and non supercharged

Hi Everyone

I just want to know if u can differentiate between a Supercharged 2010 sport range rover and a "non" supercharged one Just by looking at it ???

I mean apart from the writings in the back of the car.....is there any other external differences than the writings in the back of the car ???

Thank u very much

Differences:

Perforated leather in SC
SC Grille
SC Vents
SC Exhausts (box style shape)

Although people swap these bits (like I have apart from the leather)

The grille on the front if it is SC will have a black badge, if it has a green badge it will be HSE, but many (maybe even most) second hand HSEs have SC grilles as they are a cheap upgrade option.

Regarding the side vents the SC ones just look slightly better/sportier.....

I personally prefer HST grille and vents and have those

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

2010MY HSE have different colour of side vents - dull silvery colour, S/C have shiney "chrome" effect IIRC
Also the alloy wheels on S/C are 20" 5 spokes, HSE are very fancy 15 spoke design
S/C mirrors have puddle lights built in (that one is for the real anoraks!)
S/C has Adaptive Cruise - not sure about the gas engined NA V8 as we don't get that in the UK 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Yes S/C wheels are 5 spokes, HSE are 15 spokes (in the UK anyway!) To get the full UK specs (we cannot see what Export cars get here) then the RRSport section of the LR website is here

You are absolutely right. The badge is all the same for all models now, black and silver. Green and gold is gone for good now. Vadim A.

That is rather odd. I know for sure Land Rover changed the badge... I was even told the same thing by Strastones... Vadim A.

2010 cars got the Black Badge, 2011 are supposed to have Green Silver - maybe it's only the "Land Rover" Branded cars (Defender/D4 and Freelander2) that will get it and the 2 Range Rovers will stay Black/Silver, my new FFRR has all black badging and I thought it was something to do with 2010 being the 40th Birthday year of the FFRR. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
