Range Rover Sport Black Edition All-Black Luxury SUV
Land Rover has unveiled a striking new addition to its performance SUV lineup — the Range Rover Sport SV Black Edition. This limited-run model is a bold expression of luxury and power, featuring an all-black aesthetic that extends from its Narvick Black bodywork to its interior details. More than just a visual statement, the SV Black Edition packs a high-performance V8 under the hood and introduces new levels of exclusivity for Range Rover Sport enthusiasts.
Design: The Darkest Range Rover Yet
The SV Black Edition is based on the top-tier Range Rover Sport SV, but with a distinctively stealth-focused design philosophy. The entire exterior is finished in Narvick Black, a deep gloss black paint unique to this edition. In this model, Land Rover has completely eliminated all contrasting brightwork: the grille, window surrounds, exhaust tips, and badges are all finished in black. Even the carbon fiber bonnet, usually a standout design cue, is subdued under a matching Narvick Black tone.
The SUV rides on 23-inch forged alloy wheels, also blacked-out, paired with performance-oriented high-performance tires. Behind the wheels sit large
brake calipers, also painted black, completing the vehicle's menacing appearance.
The black-on-black theme continues in the interior, which features premium black leather upholstery with intricate stitching and high-gloss black trim pieces. Every element, from the steering wheel to the center console, has been designed to reflect this ultra-luxury monochromatic concept. Land Rover has removed all chrome, brushed metal, and colored accents for a cohesive and dramatic cabin experience.
Performance: BMW V8 Power, Supercar Acceleration
Underneath its dark exterior, the Range Rover Sport SV Black Edition shares its powertrain with the standard SV model — a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, sourced from BMW’s high-performance division. This engine produces 635 horsepower (643 PS) and 750 Nm of torque, delivering sports car-level performance in a luxury SUV package.
Acceleration is a key highlight: the SV Black Edition rockets from 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) in just 3.6 seconds, making it the fastest production Range Rover Sport ever made. Top speed is electronically limited to 290 km/h (180 mph), a remarkable figure for a full-size SUV.
This performance is made possible by several advanced systems:
Mild-hybrid technology for improved throttle response and reduced turbo lag.
An 8-speed automatic transmission tuned for quick gear changes.
All-wheel drive with active torque vectoring, offering maximum grip under hard cornering.
A rear-wheel steering system that enhances maneuverability in tight urban settings while improving high-speed stability.
In addition, Land Rover's 6D Dynamics suspension system ensures the SV Black Edition delivers both precise handling and refined ride comfort. This system can control pitch, roll, and vertical movement independently, minimizing body motion during acceleration, braking, and cornering.
Exclusivity & Pricing
The Range Rover Sport SV Black Edition is set to be produced in limited numbers, with order books expected to open in late 2025. In the UK, pricing starts from £155,000, which converts to approximately $212,000 USD. While official numbers have not been disclosed, insiders expect fewer than 500 units to be produced globally.
Land Rover also confirmed the removal of allocation restrictions on the standard SV version, which was previously available only through limited-order batches in select markets. Now, customers can configure and order the Range Rover Sport SV more freely, starting from £140,000 (around $192,000).
Not the Only Special Edition
June also saw Land Rover release the Defender Trophy Edition, another limited-run model designed as a tribute to the iconic Camel Trophy off-road events of the 1980s and '90s. While the Trophy Edition primarily features cosmetic upgrades and adventure-focused options, it reinforces the brand’s dedication to crafting unique, high-character vehicles across its range.
Final Thoughts: Who Is It For?
The Range Rover Sport SV Black Edition is not just a performance SUV; it's a design statement. It caters to those who appreciate understated aggression, bespoke craftsmanship, and supercar-level speed, all wrapped in one of the most recognizable luxury SUV silhouettes.
