Land Rover has unveiled an updated version of its flagship Range Rover ahead of the 2017 LA Motor Show, the long wheelbase SVAutobiography. It’s the most expensive Range Rover ever produced, with prices rising to £177,030 for the 5.0-litre supercharged V8 model.
JLR’s Special Vehicle Operations division develops the SVAutobiography, with the team focusing on luxury for those in the back. ‘Executive Class’ rear seats have been fitted, providing 1.2 metres of legroom thanks to the long wheelbase format. The heated seats can also recline to a maximum of 40 degrees and have calf and footrests.
Each passenger in the rear also gets use of a 10-inch touchscreen, which comes with JLR’s Touch Pro Duo infotainment systems and 4G WiFi. A fridge is located between the two rear seats, with the capacity to hold two wine bottles or four 600ml bottles.

The centre console runs the length of the cabin and features heating and cooling controls for rear passengers, while the rear doors are also power operated. For the first time customers can also spec a Power Deployable Veneered Loadspace Floor in the boot to help with loading and unloading items.
Three powertrains are offered in the SVAutobiography; the 335bhp 4.4-litre V8 diesel is the entry point to the range at £167,850. For an extra £165, customers can opt for a plug-in hybrid powertrain for the first time. It comprises a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine alongside a small electric motor; the combined output is 395bhp and 640Nm of torque with an electric-only range of 31 miles.
At £177,030, the 5.0-litre supercharged V8 is the highest spec SVAutobiography on offer. It has also been uprated over the previous model to develop 557bhp.
