This could not be further from the truth. My 12" Adire Sub in custom real sealed enclosure plays down to 25Hz effortlessly.

I didn't say it wouldn't go low, just that 25Hz needs space to breathe.

I've got a 2018 SVR and the sound is perfect! No rattles and crisp clear high notes. I just needed to play with the settings to get the sound that I wanted...

My salesman advised me to use the Meridian setting which I don't think improved the sound. I did see a post in the how to where someone has detailed info and pics as to what he did with speaker separation, etc to make this system come alive. I haven't had the time to adjust the settings like th op suggested. I will report back after I do. Anyone else feel like this system is lacking?
I was surprised that it is not as good as the ones they put in Range Rover. It’s fine and I have a convertible.The good news is that I rarely use it because I listen to the engine and I’m focus on my driving. It’s no a GT, it’s a real sports car.
It needs the Range Rover system if you just want to cruise: steel subwoofer in the trunk and upgrade the speakers behind the seats. The power is sufficient.
