Distinctive black finishes, including for the first time, the Range Rover SV roundel and brand badges on the front grille, deliver a bold and defiant interpretation of stealth-like, sporting luxury.
Range Rover Sport SV Black takes on an even more purposeful character for the marque. Every detail on the exterior has been transformed with a Gloss Black finish, bringing an even more commanding attitude to the most powerful Range Rover Sport ever.

Martin Limpert, Global Managing Director, Range Rover, said: 'Range Rover Sport SV Black represents the essence of sporting luxury; a statement of audacious rebellion. We've created a vehicle that combines pure power and performance with a gritty, uncompromising attitude that demands attention. Range Rover's design team has gone beyond anything we've offered previously with black packs or options, giving every single exterior and interior element a sophisticated Narvik black treatment; it appears to the eye, as if the vehicle has been dipped in gloss. We extend this attention to detail to new finishes for the first time on Range Rover, truly showcasing our craftsmanship.'
No stone unturned in the quest for a stealthy treatment, with exceptional craftsmanship and sporting finishes that exude dramatic confidence

Range Rover Sport SV Black
Range Rover Sport SV Black takes sporting attitude to the next level. A dynamic and assertive take on the all-black theme, Range Rover Sport SV Black commands attention with its Narvik Black body and full Narvik Gloss Black Exterior Pack, which accentuates its muscular stance and focused presence.
Amplifying the full monochrome finish is a black-painted carbon fibre bonnet, and Gloss Black Forged 23-inch alloy wheels with Gloss Black brake calipers and Gloss Black quad exhausts. Black is exquisitely expressed in every application – in particular with the new black ceramic SV roundel on the tailgate.
The ultimate performance SUV has a dark and purposeful interior to match its commanding exterior. New SV Black illuminated treadplates make a strong visual statement whenever the door is opened, while the sculpted performance seats are finished in tactile Ebony Windsor leather. Gloss Grand Black finishers complete the look inside, completing the exquisitely judged blend of sporting attitude and luxurious, technical finishes.
Range Rover Sport SV is the most powerful and dynamic Range Rover Sport ever, blending supreme performance and dynamism with peerless Range Rover capability, refinement and reductive design. Its array of performance enhancing technologies includes the most advanced suspension system in its class – 6D Dynamics Suspension, and 'Body and Soul Seats' a sensory audio system with wellness benefits.
Powered exclusively by a 467kW, 750Nm 4.4litre Twin Turbo MHEV V8 petrol engine, Range Rover Sport SV Black is capable of accelerating from 0-100km/h in just 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 290km/h.

JLR prices newly Black Edition suited ‘full-size' Range Rover
The Black officially becomes the priciest Range Rover ever sold in South Africa, with option of standard or long wheelbase L configurations. Black Edition attire has now been handed to the full-size Range Rover SV. Image: JLR JLR has removed the wraps from its second Black Edition Range Rover in as many weeks, albeit this time based on the full-size variant instead of the Sport. Black attire Set to become the most expensive Range Rover sold in South Africa, the Black, as with the Sport, is the work of JLR's SV Bespoke division, with the range topping 'standard' SV serving as base. ALSO READ: WATCH: New Range Rover as close to motoring heaven as it gets Available in five-seat form or in long wheelbase L guise with five or four seats, the Black's exterior changes are virtually identical to those of the Sport by consisting of a gloss Narvik Black finish, 23-inch gloss black alloy wheels, gloss black brake calipers, a polished gloss black mesh grille and gloss black Range Rover lettering on the bonnet. A gloss black Range Rover oval badge and a black ceramic SV roundel instead of the usual white on the tailgate, rounds the Black's aesthetics off. Interior has been given a black overhaul as well. Image: JLR Inside, the darkened touches include a satin black ceramic finish on the toggle switch gear lever, black birch wood veneers, Ebony semi-aniline leather seats with a new single cover that reduces stitch work and seams, and what JLR calls Moonlight Chrome decorative inserts. Same V8 heart In addition to the specification sheet remaining unchanged from the standard SV and SV L, JLR has also not altered the powerplant, meaning the BMW-sourced 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 continues to produce 452kW/750Nm. As ever, drive is routed to all four wheels via a ZF-sourced eight-speed automatic gearbox. The claimed top speed is 261 km/h, with respective 0-100 km/h times, with launch control active, of 4.3 and 4.4 seconds. Price Confirmed to be shown alongside the Sport SV Black Edition as the Goodwood Festival of Speed that kicks-off on 10 July and runs until 13 July, the Range Rover SV Black Edition carries a price tag of R5 269 200, which increases to R5 718 700 for the L. Representing premiums of R297 900 and R230 800 over the standard SV models, both Black Edition's price tags include a five-year/100 000 km maintenance plan as standard.

New Range Rover SV Black debuts with all-black styling and sensory seats
Floor and seats allow passengers to physically feel music from Meridian system By Another week, another blacked-out special edition from Jaguar Land Rover. Following the recent launches of the Range Rover Sport SV Black and Land Rover Defender Octa Black, the new Range Rover SV Black is the latest model to receive this deep-shadow treatment. Billed as the 'darkest, stealthiest Range Rover ever created', the SV Black is finished in Narvik Gloss Black paint, with the radiator grille and bonnet lettering also treated in Gloss Black. Additional highlights include 23-inch Gloss Black alloy wheels, black brake calipers, and a bespoke black ceramic SV tailgate roundel. Inside, the theme continues with satin black trim, ebony leather upholstery featuring single-panel seat covers with significantly less stitches (a first for Range Rover), black birch veneers and a gear shifter crafted from satin black ceramic. Moonlight Chrome accents are used throughout the cabin to add a dark, jewel-like contrast. Standard equipment includes the brand's Body and Soul Seats, which allow occupants to physically feel the music from the Meridian sound system, and a new Sensory Floor that uses haptic feedback to deliver a similar immersive effect. Power comes from a 4.4 l twin-turbocharged mild-hybrid V8 petrol engine producing 452kW and 750Nm. The Range Rover SV Black will be available to order from late 2025, with pricing starting at R5,269,200 for the standard wheelbase and R5,718,700 for the long-wheelbase version.

JLR's quarterly sales drop 11% after US exports halt, Jaguar wind down
British luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) reported a 10.7% drop in first quarter sales, its Indian parent Tata Motors said on Monday, hit by a temporary pause in shipments to the US and a wind-down of the Jaguar brand's legacy models. JLR, known for its Range Rover SUVs, sold 87,286 units to dealers worldwide in the April to June quarter, down from 97,755 units a year ago. In April, JLR paused exports of its British-made cars to the US, one of its biggest growth markets, after President Donald Trump slapped a 25% duty on all foreign made vehicles sold in the world's second-largest car market. JLR has no manufacturing presence in the US. Its Range Rover lineup is manufactured in Britain, whose cars are subject to a 10% levy, while the top selling Defender SUVs are made in Slovakia, subject to a higher 25% levy. The steep decline in a key market for JLR comes as it navigates weak demand in China and slowing sales in Europe, prompting it to spend more to boost volumes. Sales in top market North America, which accounts for one third of its sales, dropped 12.2% in the first quarter. Jaguar's luxury sedans, SUVs and sports cars sales declined nearly 72% to a 2,339 units as part of a years-long phase out before it morphs into a fully electric brand in 2026. Excluding Jaguar's performance, JLR sales were down 5.1%. JLR is one of Britain's top car exporters and its sales account for two-thirds of parent Tata Motors' revenue. JLR and Tata Motors will report their first quarter earnings in August. The company in June cut its target for earnings margin before interest and taxes for the fiscal year 2026 to 5% to 7%, from 10%, amid uncertainty in the global auto industry spurred by US tariffs.
