Range Rover SV Ultra in SA: price and specs

Representing the ‘pinnacle’ of Range Rover luxury, Land Rover has whipped the wraps off the Range Rover SV Ultra. See pricing below…

The Range Rover Sport SV Ultra is the “most exquisite interpretation of Range Rover luxury and distinction”, Land Rover says. The latest model in the automaker’s flagship SUV lineup features several bespoke exterior and interior design elements, and “world-first” tech – the latter coming in the shape of “pioneering” audio technology.

Starting with the latter, the Range Rover SV Ultra debuts an Electrostatic Sound system, which, the firm says, transforms the cabin into a “concert hall”. The setup features 21 lightweight thin-film transducers, integrated into the headrests and seatbacks, to create “personal auditoriums” for each seat. The audio setup further includes the company’s Body and Soul Seats and Sensory Haptic Floor tech.

The interior is dressed in a two-tone, Orchid White and Cinder Grey hue. The seats feature laser-etched mosaic patterns. The Range Rover Sport SV Ultra is available with a selection of exterior paint options, with Titan Silver exclusive to this model. The exterior features Satin Platinum and Silver Chrome accents. The new model rolls on 23-inch alloy wheels with Platinum Silver inserts.

Behold: the new Range Rover Electric, and yes, this EV can wade through water

Lots of tech, lots of ability, lots of... Range Rover - can this big, luxury electric car succeed?

A vast amount of tech has been thrown at the electric Range Rover, with the simple aim of making it just a Range Rover. Or more accurately of making it the Range Rover that we all think existed before, but never really did.

A Range Rover, we think, has a fabulously refined powertrain. In reality of course even a well-muffled V8 engine and superbly calibrated eight-speed gearbox can never be as smooth, quiet or proportional to inputs as an EV, not even a decade-old Renault Zoe. By the same token, we all think a Range Rover has near-perfect off-road traction systems, but actually they're nowhere near as subtly effective at controlling wheelspin with a combustion engine as they can be with electric motors.

This explains the 'nothing to see here' visuals. The Range Rover Electric looks like what it is: a Range Rover. The grille is blanked off (but at a glance appears otherwise) and there are aero tweaks in the underbody and wheels – anti-drag measures that are good for 10 miles' motorway range. Oh and there are no exhaust pipes, but anyway in the petrol car they're coyly hidden behind the rear valance. So you might already have seen one – they've been testing for some years, with no camouflage.

Prices start at £154,070 in Autobiography spec, and head towards a quarter million. Before spluttering at that cost, you might like to check the money combustion Range Rovers command these days.
