The Range Rover always springs to mind when the words ‘luxury’ and ‘SUV’ are mentioned. Other manufacturers may have tried to mimic the recipe used by Land Rover, however, none have more years in the luxury SUV game. Land Rover realised early on that the key to the new Range Rover wasn’t a complete re-design but revising and updating old features. The finished product is one that we are familiar with in the way it looks and drives, but undoubtedly feels refreshed. The overall design is now slicker with a less ‘boxy’ appearance with nicely proportioned sections.

The latest Pivo Pro touchscreen is larger than the previous generation with satisfying haptic feedback when navigating and selecting. Physical HVAC dials remain which doesn’t overcomplicate things, with a re-designed gear selector which replaces the cylindrical selector design. Only the latest technology has been employed with the new Range Rovers. An example of this is the 48-Volt ant-roll bars that communicate directly with the sat-nav, so the car knows if any sharp corners are ahead. Rear-wheel steering is a standard feature, making the large dimensions feel more manageable in smaller spaces.

This particular model is the SV example. Opulence and exclusivity are on show more than ever with the SV. It includes as standard some unique design features such as the SV Bespoke Full Extended Leather Upgrade, Executive Class Comfort Plus Rear Seats and of course, Meridian Signature Sound System.
