Land Rover has officially taken the wraps off the Range Rover SV Black Edition, a new variant that joins the SV Serenity and SV Intrepid models under the Range Rover SV lineup. It will be previewed at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (July 10–13, 2025) and will be available to order internationally from late 2025. Availability and pricing for India are yet to be announced.
Most recently, Land Rover unveiled the Range Rover Sport SV Black, followed by the Defender Octa Black. The upcoming Range Rover SV Black will be the third and most luxurious “Black” model in the lineup, serving as the flagship in the “Black” lineup.
Range Rover SV Black Edition – Design and Exterior
The exterior of the Range Rover SV Black Edition is fully finished in Narvik Gloss Black, including the grille, bonnet lettering, Range Rover oval, and lower detailing. The grille features a gloss black mesh insert, and the 23-inch alloy wheels are also black-finished. Brake calipers carry a matching dark theme with black branding. At the rear, a black ceramic SV roundel is used in place of traditional badging.
This all-black finish is new to the Range Rover SV lineup and sets the SV Black Edition apart from the Serenity and Intrepid trims, which have their own distinct themes.
Range Rover SV Black Edition – Interior
The interior follows the same blacked-out theme with Ebony Near-Aniline leather upholstery, which features a unique graduated perforation pattern. A new single-panel seat design has been introduced, which reduces stitch lines and creates a more seamless appearance.
Black birch wood veneers with a satin finish are used across the cabin surfaces. The gear shifter is finished in satin black ceramic, and Moonlight Chrome accents are used on multiple interior elements. These dark finishes contrast subtly with the tactile materials to maintain a consistent cabin theme.
The SV Black Edition is available in both standard wheelbase (SWB) and long wheelbase (LWB) configurations. LWB variants are expected to carry more features, including the advanced audio and comfort technology described below.
Range Rover SV Black Edition – Sensory Floor Technology
A key highlight of the Range Rover SV Black Edition is the inclusion of a new Sensory Floor system. This feature is part of Range Rover’s broader Body-and-Soul-Seat (BASS) technology suite and is standard on all LWB SV Black Edition models.
The Sensory Floor includes four transducers embedded under the carpet mats in both front and rear footwells. These transducers generate vibrations that sync with audio from the speaker system, allowing passengers to feel low-frequency audio signals in addition to hearing them.
Passengers can select from six built-in wellness programmes, including modes designed for relaxation or alertness. These programmes combine haptic feedback from the floor and seats to create a full-body listening experience. The system has been developed to reduce stress and improve cognitive focus during travel.
Range Rover SV Black Edition – Powertrain
The Range Rover SV Black Edition will be powered by a 4.4 litre 615 Hp twin-turbocharged V8 petrol engine that produces 750 Nm of torque and is mated to an 8-Speed automatic. The Range Rover SV can do the 0 to 100 kmph run in 4.5 seconds. The drivetrain does include all-wheel drive and adaptive suspension for improved comfort and on-road stability.
Unlike some other variants in the Range Rover portfolio, the SV Black Edition does not currently feature an electric or hybrid option.
Range Rover SV Black Edition – Tyres and Materials
On the occasion of the reveal Land rover also debuts new Pirelli P Zero tyres made with over 70% bio-based and recycled materials. These include silica sourced from rice husks, FSC -certified natural rubber, recycled steel, and plant-based oils. Land Rover claim the tyres are developed to offer both performance and durability. They will initially be available on select 22-inch wheels. These tyres will made available globally from later this year. To be noted, the new tyres will not be featured on the SV Black.
This development is part of Land Rover’s strategy to introduce more sustainable components across its portfolio, even in models not powered by electrified drivetrains.
Range Rover SV Black Edition – Availability
The Range Rover SV Black Edition will be made ready for order globally from late 2025. It is expected to be sold through Land Rover’s official dealers in international markets, including the UK and parts of Europe. The India launch timeline and pricing are yet to be confirmed. Given the model’s positioning and limited production scale, it is likely to be introduced in low volumes through custom order channels.
As of now, Land Rover has not indicated how many units will be allocated for the Indian market.
