Recently, official images of the Range Rover Sport SV Carbon Edition were released. The new vehicle adds a carbon fiber package on the basis of the SV version, will make its global debut on August 13, and reservations will open at the end of the year.
In terms of exterior, the new vehicle continues the exterior design of the SV version, with carbon fiber decorative pieces added to the grille frame, front lip, fenders, front hood, and other parts. The 23-inch wheels are also made of carbon fiber, paired internally with a carbon ceramic brake system, and the exhaust pipes at the rear are also made of carbon fiber, reducing weight by 76 kilograms compared with the standard SV version.
In terms of interior, the new vehicle adopts a black-and-white two-tone color scheme, with carbon fiber trim panels added to the details. The shoulders of the integrated sport seats feature an illuminated SV badge, and the door sills are paired with champagne-colored metal trim strips, whose lettering lights up when the doors are opened and closed.
In terms of power, the Range Rover Sport SV Carbon is equipped with a 4.4T twin-turbocharged V8 engine, with a maximum power of 635 horsepower, peak torque of up to 750 Nm, acceleration from 0 to 96 km/h in just 3.7 seconds, and a designed top speed of 290 km/h.
Xiao Tang's take: The Range Rover Sport SV is built by the SV department of Jaguar Land Rover's advanced customization center and is a representative high-performance SUV. The Range Rover Sport SV is equipped with the world's first 6D intelligent dynamic chassis, combining hydraulically interconnected dampers, air springs, and a pitch control system to effectively reduce the vehicle's pitch and roll, keeping the body attitude very stable during cornering, acceleration, and braking. The suggested retail price of the Range Rover Sport SV in China is 2.438 million yuan, and the carbon fiber version shown in the official images will only be priced higher. The use of a large amount of carbon fiber materials increases manufacturing costs, but the lightweight body will also bring more extreme handling.
