Range Rover Sport SV Black – Luxury SUV With 180-MPH BMW V8

Discover the new Range Rover Sport SV Black: a luxury SUV with a 626hp BMW V8, 6D Dynamics suspension, carbon brakes, and bold stealth design.

Range Rover is no longer content with releasing rare special editions — the brand is ready to secure its place at the top of the performance SUV game for good. The new Range Rover Sport SV, once known as the limited Edition One and Two, now becomes a permanent member of the lineup. And not just powerful — but available to anyone willing to part with at least £139,995. For those craving something darker and bolder, the SV Black pushes the stealth factor to the extreme, with every inch seemingly dipped in glossy black.

Under the hood sits the familiar 4.4-liter Twin Turbo V8, sourced from BMW and proven inside the X5 M Competition. Thanks to mild hybrid tech, it delivers up to 626 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque. In the SV Black trim, that means 0 to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds — numbers that bend physics for a 2.5-ton SUV.

But it’s not just brute force. Range Rover’s flagship comes armed with 6D Dynamics suspension — ditching traditional anti-roll bars for smart cross-linked hydraulic dampers. The result? Less body roll, sharper handling, and remarkable stability at speed. Brembo Octyma carbon ceramic brakes with huge 440 mm discs and optional 23-inch carbon wheels from Carbon Revolution help keep weight in check and rein in momentum when needed.

Inside, it’s all about sensory luxury. Body and Soul seats, developed with SUBPAC, bring haptic feedback to life, pulsing with the music and even offering wellness benefits thanks to Coventry University’s input. Subtle details like illuminated black treadplates and Ebony Windsor leather with gloss trim complete the cabin’s moody, technical vibe.

The days of invitation-only runs are over — SV now stands as a statement on the open market, ready to challenge the likes of the Urus and Cayenne Turbo GT head-on. How many cars Land Rover will build remains unclear, but judging by the buzz around its predecessors, the line is already forming.
