What Rolls-Royce or Bentley are to the world of limousines , Range Rover Autobiography models are to the world of luxury SUVs. Until now, the Autobiography Black version with an extended wheelbase has been the highlight, but the boundaries of the SVAutobiography version are still a little further.
It will mainly be about the interior with the finest genuine leather upholstery, mohair carpets and wooden or aluminum decors. Since it is assumed that at the price level of around 4.56 million crowns you already have your own driver, the British SUV spoils the rear passengers in particular. The massive central tunnel between the individual seats hides electronically extendable tables with drink holders and a fridge, all of course inlaid with wood or aluminium. The luggage compartment received a retractable floor made of wood veneer, the optional Event Seating seats, integrated into the lower lid of the trunk, are completely unique. Upholstery is provided by first-class Windsor leather, they also include blankets for covering. A new feature that will be available across the entire range of Range Rover is the automatic opening of the trunk lid , which is activated by kicking under the rear bumper.
Compared to the cabin, the body with an extended wheelbase is quite boring, its only major change is the two-tone paintwork in a combination of Santorini black and nine other shades. The radiator grille combines polished chrome with a graphite shade of Atlas, and the hood and trunk lid have new markings. Incidentally, the Special Vehicles Operations division is responsible for the production of this version. This is also reflected under the hood, where the supercharged five-liter eight-cylinder engine from the Range Rover Sport SVR with an output of 550 hp and a torque of 680 Nm plays a role. In addition to it, the British manufacturer will also offer TDV6, SDV8, SCV6 and SDV6 Hybrid versions.
The standard version of the Range Rover has also undergone partial changes with a better connection of the mobile phone with InControl technologies. In the InControl Remote Premium version, the owner can also check the fuel level, unlock or lock the doors, turn on the lights or activate the horn using the application on the phone. Hands-free opening of the trunk lid has already been mentioned, another electronic gadget is the automatic lowering of the ground clearance when getting out or getting in. The camera system has better graphics and even a rear washer. Dunlop QuattroMaxx 22-inch tires will be available for the first time for an extra charge, while All Terrain Progress Control all-wheel drive will be added to the standard equipment of several versions. On paper, the emissions of the SDV6 Hybrid version have been reduced, the SDV8 version has standard stop-start , which has reduced emissions to 219 g CO2/km.
