Depends on where you live.
Florida? Probably not necessary.
Northern Canada? Gotta get thru the waist high snow from last night that the plows didn't bother with. 4wd and some ground clearance is a must.
Range rovers are hardly offroad vehicles anymore. The Defender was the last truly offroad capable model but the latest iteration is just another soccer mom van for the moderately wealthy. My boss has one and it truly is a sad departure from the brands past.
I'm not talking about off road.
Then you definitely don't need 4wd. A front wheel drive performs perfectly well on snowy roads, awd if you're in an area with particularly nasty winters. But anyone who says they need a 4wd suv/truck because of snowy roads is either a shit driver or just plain full of it.
