A curated colour palette includes four options in addition to a curated choice from the SV Premium Palette. The standard Forged Carbon Exterior Pack includes stealthy carbon fibre detailing, including surrounding the Active Quad Exhausts, while a Twill Carbon finish, characterised by its distinctive diagonal weave pattern, and exposed carbon fibre bonnet are also available as an option for clients with a preference.
Range Rover Sport SV Carbon features lightweight 23-inch forged alloy wheels complemented by Anodised Black brake calipers, but clients can choose from a range of further optional enhancements, including ultra-lightweight 23-inch Carbon Fibre Wheels.

Last month we announced the Range Rover Sport SV Black, offering a stealthy, dipped-in-black aesthetic, while the new Range Rover Sport SV Carbon is an assertive interpretation of our luxury performance SUV. Offered alongside Range Rover Sport SV and SV Black, it completes the new line-up showcasing the best of Range Rover’s sophisticated carbon fibre materials, for the ultimate expression of lightweight performance.”

Inside, Body and Soul™ Seat (BASS) technology creates a multi‑dimensional audio experience which allows front seat occupants to feel the sound. This sensory audio system provides wellness benefits and an immersive listening experience.
