The wider 2021 Range Rover family has been
updated for 2021, complementing some minor updates also made for the Range
Rover Sport. Underscoring the updated range for North America are the 2021
Range Rover Autobiography Fifty Edition, HSE Westwinster Edition, and
SVAutobiography Dynamic Black Edition. The first of these, the Fifty Edition,
was first detailed by Land Rover in June and as its name implies, celebrated 50
years of the Range Rover, will be limited to just 1,970 examples and includes
some custom touches like new badging and distinct 22-inch wheels.
Meanwhile, the HSE Westminster Edition is
based on the pre-existing HSE trim level and comes equipped with Atlas exterior
accents and 21-inch 7 split-spoke wheels. The model will also be available in a
number of Solid, Metallic and Premium Metallic finishes while the cabin sports
Shadow Walnut veneers, 20-way heated and cooled front seats, a refrigerated
front center console, soft close doors and a 825 Watt 19-speaker Meridian
surround sound system.
Updates enjoyed by the SVAutobiography
Dynamic Black Edition are minimal and limited to Santorini Black Metallic paint
and Narvik Black gloss exterior accents, 22-inch Gloss Black forged wheels,
black brake calipers, branded illuminated tread plates, and Ebony seats with
Pimento stitching.
The interior of all 2021 Range Rover
models are well equipped with most featuring 16-way grained leather seats.
Executive Class Rear Seating is fitted as standard on all Autobiography and
above trims and includes wider seat frames and deeper cushioning, massage
functionality, 7.6 inches of additional legroom and the ability for the
seatbacks to be reclined up to 40 degrees. One particularly interesting new
feature of the SUV is PM2.5 system that uses the recirculation function to
clean the air and remove particulates less than 2.5 micrometers in size.
Key pieces of technology found within
include Jaguar Land Rover’s Touch Pro Duo infotainment system that includes two
10-inch touchscreens to control all infotainment functions and climate control.
There is also a 12-inch digital gauge cluster and a 10-inch Head-Up Display.
Passengers have access to no less than 17 electrical sockets ranging from USB
plugs to HDMI connectors to 12V and 110V charging points. Audio systems with
13, 19, and 29 speakers respectively are available.
An array of powertrains are available.
